"HIS NEWEST AND BEST"
- BLUES REVUE
Pick up a copy of this month's Blues Revue Magazine
for a pretty darn good review of "Sky Blues"
ARTICHOKE
CRAB DIP
1 cup cooked crabmeat (pick out any shell fragments)
4 fresh artichoke hearts steamed and chopped
1 small onion minced
1 cup sour cream
1 cup yogurt
2 Tbsp Liquid Summer Hot Sauce (or more!)
OPA! RESTAURANT
614 ATHENS STREET,
TARPON SPRINGS, FL 34689 (727) 934-8444
There's so much great food in Tarpon Springs. This little
Greek community is tight together. The shop keepers
and restaurantuers all stop to talk, say "hey!"
in Greek, and carry on. It's as if a little piece of
the Mediterranean broke off and somehow floated to Florida.
Nestled among the sponges and bakeries and tourist boutiques
is Opa! appropriately always spelled with an exclamation
point! A little restaurant where English is a second
language, if spoken at all. The best octopus I ever
had. Tender as can be. Grilled to perfection. Also real
authentic Greek delicacies like sweetbreads sauteed
with olive oil, garlic, and lemon. Or a creamy caviar
dip for an appetiser. Of course the salad is…yep…you
guessed it…GREEK! For the real deal, if you like
tentacles, OPA!
