Interview with Executive Chef Lee Aquino from the New St. Pete Pier Restaurants
Welcome to the St. Petersburg Foodies Podcast Episode 109! On today's episode, we interview Executive Chef Lee Aquino. Lee heads up three of the new locations at the new St. Pete Pier, including; The Driftwood Cafe, Teak Restaurant, and the rooftop bar Pier Teaki. Under the same ownership, Lee also heads up The Birch & Vine, and the rooftop bar The Canopy at The Birchwood Hotel on Beach Drive. We'll be talking about some quite creative, yet approachable eats and treats. After Lee, we have Greenstock salads for lunch, and Lori tells how she recently started Weight Watchers, and that her salad is only two points out of 30 for the day. It's also quite tasty.
