Cheap Thrill

By CHRIS SHERMAN

© St. Petersburg Times, published September 21, 2000


Bec's

You've gotta like such a tiny place that squeezes so much imagination into such big sandwiches -- actually calzone shaped dough-zers of jerked chicken or even meatloaf. Owner Bryan Becton, above, shoehorns in a dozen other bright ideas, fresh soups, potato pancakes, pasta salad, eggplant fries, breakfast custards, take-home suppers and stuffed French toast for weekend brunch. Don't just drive through; stop and set a spell; you'll be surprised. Bec's, 6211 S MacDill Ave., Tampa; (813) 837-2700.
