When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

There is something deeply endearing about all the things that have stayed consistent — the mushroom tartine, the pecan-crusted rack of lamb, the crazy delicious burger topped with bacon shallot marmelade. Why fix something that isn’t broken?"},{"owner":{"sponsored":false,"id":"tbt"},"copyright":"Tampa Bay Times","address":{"street_address":"Mise en Place","locality":"Tampa","region":"FL"},"auth":{"1":"bd63b22272701d6d27d3a777f7ed049111c9fbcb29591cc2ab5d06f6bb29a30e"},"vanity_credits":{"affiliation":[{"name":"Times (2020)","type":"author"}],"by":[]},"caption":"Tartine of rock shrimp, roasted beets and smoked goat cheese is on the menu at Mise en Place.","source":{"system":"photo center","edit_url":"","additional_properties":{"editor":"photo center"}},"taxonomy":{"associated_tasks":[]},"type":"image","distributor":{"mode":"reference","reference_id":"d332c6a3-8c2f-4fce-9507-0fdc0e6cdd96"},"version":"0.10.9","url":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","licensable":false,"credits":{"affiliation":[{"name":"Times","type":"author"}],"by":[{"name":"OCTAVIO JONES","type":"author","byline":"OCTAVIO JONES"}]},"subtitle":"Mise en Place","width":2000,"_id":"HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM","additional_properties":{"fullSizeResizeUrl":"/resizer/I0Y5GPxYCR0keguHXBSHBUk6upY=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","owner":"ojones@tampabay.com","iptc_source":"Tampa Bay Times","comments":[],"iptc_job_identifier":"422834","keywords":["813","bartenders","florida tourism","food photography","foodie","icon","menu","newspapers","octavio jones","photography","photos","pictures","restaurant","servers","tampa bay","tampa bay times","taste","times","tourism"],"proxyUrl":"/resizer/I0Y5GPxYCR0keguHXBSHBUk6upY=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","takenOn":"2020-01-10T19:36:24Z","originalUrl":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","published":true,"resizeUrl":"/resizer/I0Y5GPxYCR0keguHXBSHBUk6upY=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","ingestionMethod":"manual","thumbnailResizeUrl":"/resizer/hWHKt1kQeyr0J4Kp9OIgJbirgc0=/300x0/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","version":2,"originalName":"422834_21_JONES_ta_MiseenPlace.JPG","mime_type":"image/jpeg","restricted":false,"template_id":171,"galleries":[],"_id":"ZPCC2DVCAJENHBVVTEVES45SOE","iptc_title":"Staff Photographer"},"created_date":"2020-01-12T02:23:38Z","last_updated_date":"2020-01-23T20:38:21Z","slug":"422834_21_JONES_ta_MiseenPlace","height":1333,"image_type":"photograph","resized_urls":{"original":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","smartnews_400x400":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/3uTZBCd2xSAyGeRERCaAsTjyQaQ=/400x400/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","image1x1ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/2IiVRbeTrPl_8xFP0tbNJU-XLlg=/1200x1200/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","image4x3ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/OlBktFqUTKkkBpQrU-DiKUr2J0Q=/1200x900/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG","image16x9ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/QZUbN6CZtf_d5GZ3eD1dXtGJwDE=/1200x675/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/HGOMPUOCAREL3HYNQLUBU4P7ZM.JPG"}},{"_id":"BCES3W26XNGPTF5U2RDC665W5A","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1726168927142},"type":"text","content":"<b>Don’t skip:</b> Mushroom tartine, pecan-crusted lamb"},{"_id":"Y5OGZDA455FJDKPRT4DPIYPXHA","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1727984504210},"type":"text","content":"<i>442 W.

Despite the area’s rapid transformation and new developments, we still live in close proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, and there are plenty of great spots that help us remember this. But what differentiates one fish camp from another? A grouper sandwich is just a grouper sandwich, right? At a place like Mullet’s Fish Camp in St. Petersburg, a contemporary spin on the Florida classic, takes the genre to a whole other level. You’ll still find all the typical fish camp staples: smoked fish spread, grouper sandwiches, peel-and-eat shrimp. But there’s a considerable uptick in quality. The model here provides diners with a number of choices: Pick a seafood, a cooking style and a sauce. It sounds simple enough; the results are anything but."},{"_id":"HBSBFYBJNRBUHAKF74GCAFMWVU","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1730927273989},"type":"text","content":"Take an order of fish tacos, for example.

All of the options are good, but the Florida Man (cooked in a citrus herb butter) or the Bobby Lee (a hoisin ginger and garlic butter topped with crunchy slaw) versions are among the most popular, for good reason. The thing that really gets people through the doors, however, isn’t seafaring at all: It’s the smoked chicken wings, which are among the best (if not the best) wings in all of Tampa Bay. I like to get them with the house “Merman” sauce, a Carolinas-esque sweet and vinegary elixir, and a side of the house blue cheese dressing."},{"owner":{"sponsored":false,"id":"tbt"},"copyright":"Tampa Bay Times","address":{"locality":"St. Petersburg","region":"FL"},"syndication":{"search":"true","external_distribution":"true"},"auth":{"1":"d5d45e20c4d933e07cb4238d5690c02573543ae061faf7093a34b1ecbda4a02d"},"caption":"Mullet's Fish Camp, at 3901 6th St S in St. Petersburg.","source":{"system":"photo center","name":"Tampa Bay Times","edit_url":"","source_type":"staff","additional_properties":{"editor":"photo center"}},"taxonomy":{},"type":"image","distributor":{"mode":"reference","reference_id":"d332c6a3-8c2f-4fce-9507-0fdc0e6cdd96"},"version":"0.10.9","url":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","licensable":true,"credits":{"affiliation":[{"name":"Times","type":"author"}],"by":[{"name":"Dirk Shadd","type":"author","byline":"Dirk Shadd"}]},"subtitle":"","width":5250,"_id":"IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY","additional_properties":{"fullSizeResizeUrl":"/resizer/i3jFQFgOiIIMzK7WpjgBu-2WUyk=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","owner":"dshadd@tampabay.com","iptc_source":"www.tampabay.com, licensing@zumapress.com","comments":[],"proxyUrl":"/resizer/i3jFQFgOiIIMzK7WpjgBu-2WUyk=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","takenOn":"2024-11-06T18:21:03Z","originalUrl":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","published":true,"resizeUrl":"/resizer/i3jFQFgOiIIMzK7WpjgBu-2WUyk=/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","ingestionMethod":"manual","thumbnailResizeUrl":"/resizer/jN2EHe1EuoDkulTA3fP2UrcAHiM=/300x0/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tbt/public/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","version":1,"originalName":"433759_SHAD_07_toprestaurantsmullets.jpg","mime_type":"image/jpeg","restricted":false,"template_id":465,"galleries":[],"_id":"7M2NOGDWXZEJVEN5JBGGR4HIAI","iptc_title":"Staff Photographer"},"created_date":"2024-11-06T20:10:33Z","last_updated_date":"2024-11-06T21:01:09Z","slug":"433759_SHAD_toprestaurantsmullets","height":3580,"image_type":"photograph","resized_urls":{"original":"https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","smartnews_400x400":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/w-D5kXQhhw5jApr8RCCjM6z1_VA=/400x400/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","image1x1ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/NB24CS3GY7FfLE2Bnt19AdFkve8=/1200x1200/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","image4x3ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/EvB7HmV0ShYpIJPM8jjzBZT2pcE=/1200x900/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg","image16x9ratio":"https://www.tampabay.com/resizer/mYE5AWTaSv0jtGMWlgPj9HCcx2E=/1200x675/smart/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/tbt/IMNFYHE6ZFFEJOXELUJDTT6KEY.jpg"}},{"_id":"Z6JIZWJB7FHDTG7RCHE4NQRQWM","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1726168927183},"type":"text","content":"<b>Don’t skip:</b> Fish tacos, smoked wings"},{"_id":"HYW6D53GQ5G3HKGVBF7NU5N2FE","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1727984504266},"type":"text","content":"<i>3901 Sixth St. S., St. Petersburg. 727-205-6313. </i><a href=\"https://www.mulletsfishcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>mulletsfishcamp.com</i></a>"},{"level":1,"_id":"O4KLFO5PSVBLXJSUDPUZD2RPFA","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1731362445367},"type":"header","content":"The team"},{"_id":"3NSEYIQ63JEANK6FSIYTWGASLE","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1731362445368},"type":"text","content":"<b>Reporter:</b> Helen Freund"},{"_id":"NI2FTIOBPFBPTAESHL6UGVEMIE","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1731362445369},"type":"text","content":"<b>Editor: </b>Michelle Stark"},{"_id":"NC7EV5RMPFAYVGODFEPSPTO764","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1731362445370},"type":"text","content":"<b>Photo editor:</b> Martha Asencio-Rhine"},{"_id":"TYZWE7XRKBHVTJXUL6M2DKLEG4","additional_properties":{"inline_comments":[],"comments":[],"_id":1731362445371},"type":"text","content":"<b>Photographers: </b>Martha Asencio-Rhine, Douglas R.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

You can catch me soaking up the culture all over Tampa Bay. I grew up in Florida, graduating from the University of South Florida in 2010 and joining the Times that same year. I own far too many pairs of boots for someone who has never lived in a state with seasons.","facebook":"http://www.facebook.com/tampabaytimesfood/","bio":"Michelle Stark is the assistant editor overseeing the life and culture reporting team.

But what differentiates one fish camp from another? A grouper sandwich is just a grouper sandwich, right? At a place like Mullet’s Fish Camp in St. Petersburg, a contemporary spin on the Florida classic, takes the genre to a whole other level. You’ll still find all the typical fish camp staples: smoked fish spread, grouper sandwiches, peel-and-eat shrimp. But there’s a considerable uptick in quality. The model here provides diners with a number of choices: Pick a seafood, a cooking style and a sauce.

All of the options are good, but the Florida Man (cooked in a citrus herb butter) or the Bobby Lee (a hoisin ginger and garlic butter topped with crunchy slaw) versions are among the most popular, for good reason. The thing that really gets people through the doors, however, isn’t seafaring at all: It’s the smoked chicken wings, which are among the best (if not the best) wings in all of Tampa Bay.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.

When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans - another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me.
