Dining at OneOOne, Tallahassee
Last Thursday’s road trip started out, after several hours on I-75 and I-10, with lunch with a friend and business colleague in Tallahassee. Compared to the visit that Rob and I made two weeks before for his debut in “Disappearing Ink,” an exhibition of the works of Florida editorial cartoonists now on display at Florida A&M University, this was a very different town.
The Legislature is back in session, and packs of businessmen in suits and ties swarmed through the Capitol like angry bees: not the best time to try and find a parking space, let alone a quiet table at a restaurant down the street from the powers that be. But Sharon steered me to OneOOne, a tasteful bistro just a few steps from the Kleman Plaza parking garage, and we settled into comfortable chairs to chat.
The lunch menu leaned towards tapas, and not wanting a heavy meal, I went for the crab cakes with fruit salad; she tried the shrimp. Both were delectable. 101 appeals to the professional crowd with a slightly daring menu showcasing fresh preparations in a snazzy bistro atmosphere.
