We were Flip Flops loyalists up through our last visit in July. We are in the Eastern Lake Rd area and discovered today that Flip Flops is gone and didn't relocate. Is there somewhere close to get a good burger and fries, preferably takeout as we have a 3 yr old and 9 yr old? Thanks!

Can't live with out the salsa at la cocina which is as real as it gets around here, with recipe from a local Mexican family. The spicy cheese dip is to die for. And the home made chips are heavenly. Not to mention the margaritas.

But, yes, we could use some real Mexican food. I've heard good things about the market on 98.. Can't recall the name.

My Wife said that the Hub had really good tacos, they sampled foood for RMB Realty. We are from Texas, so our food is more of the TexMex variety. La Chalupita is more authentic Guadalajara style. Apparently we need to try The Hub, I think the restaurants open on the the 5th. I make better Mexican than La Cocina..fact. Side note, what is up with the gumbo that is stew like that everyone makes around here? New Orleans isn't that far away, dark roux, peppers, onion, celery, andouille...

Not a fan of 98 BBQ burgers because of a strong seasoning they use. Any burger with a seasoning added is off my list. BUT I do LOVE LOVE LOVE their BBQ and hand cut fries. Outstanding restaurant in my book. Kurt LOVES the gumbo - it's received tons of awards over the years.

We don't like seasoning on burgers except for salt and pepper. Ask for it without anything then add what you want. Then you have a very good burger.

We miss Flip-Flops too. I think we'll go east to Shades.

Beach Runner, we go further east to Pier Park North. Our new favorite burger is at a place called WayBack Burgers, fresh meat cooked to order. The fried are not that great but better than a lot on 30A but the homemade potato chips are great! Double cheese burger $6.99 and chips $1.99. Shakes are pretty good. Just wish they had coke products versus Pepsi! The other burger that a lot of people really like is at Craft Bar, Pier Park North. Not our favorite because the meat is grass fed. The fries there are great and the onion rings are the best around. After 5:00PM on Monday the burgers are half price. They have a great happy hour from 2:00PM - 6:00PM with Hot Fried Chicken...$5.00 and a few $5.00 cocktails.

As in Nashville Hot Chicken? I've wondered when that would reach the beach...

Yes Teresa, as in Nashville Hot Chicken. And I dream about it. It stays crunchy until gone! Something I am intrigued about!

Wow. I haven't seen Hot Chicken on any menu around here. That's news.

It looks like the Hub isn't opening until the first weekend in May (?) But the Preachers sign was out in Seagrove, maybe time to go get a hamburger sermon from the preacher!

I don't understand why no one mentions what great burgers Seacrest Sundries has! Been around 6 years now, and it seems to be one of the best kept secrets around!
