Breakfast at Sunset...Sunset on Clearwater

We set out late for our breakfast at Caddy's on Sunset Beach.  When we arrived they had already changed over for lunch so instead of a great benedict or huge breakfast burrito with bloody mary's or beach coffee, we settled for a Philly cheesesteak and a grouper rueben.  Both were good and filled the hole, giving us a nice foundation for our day at the beach which included lounging on beach chairs under an umbrella (thanks, Eric!!), having a few drinks, and floating around in the water.  Blissful day of relaxation.  Ahhhh.  We like Caddy's for the beach.  It allows us to head for the beach with little more than a couple of towels, a good book and some sunscreen. 

We started to head for home and felt a little light-headed from the sun, so a stop at Crabby Bill's in Indian Rocks Beach provided some cold drinks and respite from the hot sun.  Crabby Bill's, a longstanding tradition for no frills, good seafood, was lively, fun and a bargain for a beer and a cocktail for $6! 

Feeling cool and getting hungry, we decided to head to Clearwater Beach, to try Union Burger, a new spot we'd spied the night before.  Union Burger, a Canadian brand of premium burger restaurant was good, but not great.  They offer a good variety of burgers and chicken sandwiches with standard and premium toppings, hand-cut fries and a sophisticated dining room.  Mack said it best, "It's like a churched-up Five Guys." Burgers were cooked well-done, which made them a bit chewy and hard to get down.  Heinz ketchup was a plus and fries, though a bit greasy were pretty yummy.  $29 for 2 burgers, fries and softdrinks.  Parking was more than difficult...we ended up parking over 5 blocks away, but luckily a pleasant evening made it a nice walk.
