The Garden Bistro is onsite next to Hollis Garden overlooking Lake Mirror. Texas Cattle Company is a short walk down the Lake Mirror Promenade. Like seafood and steak? Head to Harry's Seafood Bar and Grille near Munn Park. Need to practice your ax throwing? Ax-Caliber is just up the street from City Hall. Feel free to ask or use Google Maps to find a dining option you like.
1PM-3PM
Lake Wire

Parking is easiest if you come down Bay St. Park on the right side of the road after the bend where it turns into Lake Wire Dr. We'll tour the palm collection started in 2005 with the assistance of CFPACS member Tom Broome and the late but great Doug Morrison.
