Absolutely Charming

I happened upon the most charming little restaurant in Gulfport, Florida, yesterday. As I entered past the higgledy-piggledy sign into the garden dining room, I was greeted by a canopy of trees garnished with patio lanterns, and rustic benches with the prettiest floral tablecloths, all out in an covered courtyard with a raffia roof and lace curtains. 

I don't think I have ever been quite so taken with a restaurant before. Pia's in Gulfport.

    What a cute little place! It kind of reminds me of a little place we ate at in Key West... except they can chickens clucking around the tables! :)

    It's so cute, as though it is hidden away behind trees and walls just waiting for someone to discover it! Very nice.
