Downs (BBD) Blvd., in the space that previously had been occupied by Firehouse Subs. Click through for a slideshow of some of the delicious Greek menu items.

As the holiday season fast approaches, with its high-calorie, multiple-course meals, why not shed some pounds to make room for an extra turkey leg or slice of pumpkin pie, come November? And, why not get your slimming tips from medical doctors with experience at Women’s Care Florida?

Since March of this year, the Women’s Care Florida obstetrics and gynecology (Ob/Gyn) office of M.D.s Richard Dillon, Brian McNulty, Vicar Qureshi, Kristen Segall, Gem Ashby and Tiffany Patrick has been offering new services as part of their new Weight Loss & Wellness Center at the Wesley Chapel location of Women’s Care in the Cypress Ridge Professional Center, located just off Cypress Ridge Dr. and S.R. 56.

Here & There, This & That!

By Gary Nager,

If you went to Bonefish Grill in the Shoppes of New Tampa at Wesley Chapel plaza on BBD earlier this month, you may have found the popular eatery closed for renovations. Although it is now reopened, the renovations were primarily to the kitchen, so don’t expect a whole new look if you visit Bonefish — but feel free to tell them we sent you!

Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for official announcements about the opening of the new Ciccio’s California Cuisine in the old World of Beer space in the Shoppes at The Pointe plaza in Tampa Palms and the new Vallarta’s Restaurante Mexicano in the most recent Ciccio’s space in City Plaza at Tampa Palms, but we’ve been told that both are still “coming soon.”

Vallarta’s may be open as early as next month, and there also is talk of Ciccio’s opening on December 3.

We’ve also heard a rumor that Lee Roy Selmon’s is once again planning to re-open in its original New Tampa location, but we’ll keep you posted.
