Pies and Plates in Punta Gorda, Fla., Known for Delish Gooey Butter Cake
Happy Friday! What do you have planned for the weekend? I’m heading home to Buffalo to attend a wedding in Amish Country (Pennsylvania). I’ll be there for less than 48 hours but will make the most of it.
For today’s Feel Good Friday post, thought I’d brighten your day with this funny video called “Two Dogs Dining.” It’s been circulating the web since January but thanks to the bistro Pies and Plates in Punta Gorda, Fla., I found out about it through their newsletter. Pies and Plates is a great Southwest Florida restaurant serving up an eclectic mix of sandwiches, salads and dessert. They serve up the best Gooey Butter Cake in Florida! See the photo above?
Before enjoying, know that the dogs were not hurt during the filming of the video.
