Corteo’s Pizza and Pasta Restaurant in Palm Harbor, Florida makes a Sicilian pie that is hard to find outside of the Northeast. First of all, they construct it with real mozzarella cheese, not the inferior soy-based products that predominate. Their pie is also made in the infamous “Grandma-style” by nestling the cheese under the sauce. This method enables the cheese to stay moist and not burn. The sauce on top also helps to keep the cheese on the slice instead of it pulling off in the first bite. These things are important to a pizza lover!

The entrees are reasonably priced. The restaurant is clean and although not dripping with ambiance, it is open and friendly. The owners are those of the Michele’s Italian Restaurant that closed some years back.
Corteo’s offers “Parties on the Patio” for up to 20 guests for birthdays, anniversary parties etc. They only require a 5-7 day advance notice. Catering Trays “To Go” are another option with only 3 days notice required from order placement. Early bird specials are featured daily from 2:30 – 5:30 offering courses from appetizer to dessert.
The absolute best bet though is calling ahead and swooping in to pick up a Sicilian pie to go! Corteo’s is located at 32922 US 19 in the shopping center by Hops. Mangiare !

So on another sparkling blue Sunday in Crystal Beach Florida, we followed the music and made our way over to the first annual Citrus Festival. The streets in this exquisite section of historic Palm Harbor form a quaint labyrinth that showcases all the shops and eateries that make it the place to be on any Sunday.
But this past weekend it wasn’t just the Pinellas beach homes on display. The whole area around Nebraska and Florida Avenues was closed off to accommodate all the rides and the full arcade of classic carnival games. All kinds of vendors were represented in addition to a full set-up by our local Palm Harbor YMCA. Savory snacks sizzled on grills and the multi-tap Budweiser truck dispensed frothy glasses of beer to the Palm Harbor revelers.
As usual, the Palm Harbor Chamber of Commerce events staff did an outstanding job (with a bevy of hard working volunteers) hosting a tremendous time in this beautiful hamlet in North Pinellas County. With all of the excitement, we dropped our Flip video camera, and lost the ferris wheel video. Yet we managed to save this shot of a high-flying ride against the back drop of the downtown Palm Harbor sky.

There are little hills in Florida! The Eniswood subdivision is a beautiful tree-lined neighborhood in West Palm Harbor just northwest of Alt. 19 and Alderman Road. Eniswood is a deed restricted neighborhood with a voluntary Eniswood homeowner's association which costs only $100 a year if you elect to participate. Most but not all of the homes are 1-story and are 2,300 sq. ft. to just over 5,000 sq. ft.
This ideal family neighborhood features spacious lots and some even provide Eniswood Lake (really more of a large pond) or conservation views. These homes built in the 1980's feature vaulted ceilings, split floor plans and have a spacious feel to them. Many offer fireplaces for those occasional cool Florida evenings. Many have been updated with new kitchens and baths. You can invest in a home here between the high $200's to the mid-$500's.
The highly acclaimed Palm Harbor University High is a short walk from Eniswood, and it's just a few blocks from The Pinellas Trail and Wall Springs Park. As of this writing, a new Publix grocery store is being built in the small shopping center that borders the neighborhood. Of course, Pinellas Beaches are only a few minutes drive away - including the famed Honeymoon Island and Caladessi Island. If a manicured family neighborhood is what you're after with an ideal Palm Harbor location, Eniswood is the place to call home.
