Hot new restaurant in Tampa: thedantampa - set to open May 20 inside the floridanpalacehotel THE DAN combines the heritage of New Orleans with a heavy influence from the Roaring Twenties, and inspiration from the new generation of Gulf Coast dining. The cuisine will highlight both local ingredients and classic dishes, balancing current with the familiar for weary travelers. A variety of raw oysters, steaks, and local seafood will be featured alongside a historically-inspired cocktail program. At the bar, guests can find specialty libations such as the White Tie, Hollywoodland, and Bourbon Street Blues.
