February 19-21 is the Gardenfest Key West (Email: KWBGS@kwbgs.org). For all of you tropical plant lovers out there you will love this. South Florida’s top nurseries will show bromeliads, orchids, fruit trees, palms, tropical flowers and natives for the Botanical Gardens’ annual plant sale. Workshops, arts and crafts and docent tours will be offered. Free. Gates open at 9am. <P>Not thinking of plants but thinking of food? Our featured restaurant this week is Santiagos Bodega, santiagosbodega.com. This cozy restaurant lies off the beaten track and offers a classy ambiance with a friendly neighborhood feel. The dishes are tapas style so you can order a variety of dishes and try them all. Time has been taken to perfect every dish so each one is delectable in its own way. One of my personal favorites is the Seasoned Grouper, so fresh , so tangy……..or perhaps the Lamb Patties…or….hope to see you there!<p> Don’t forget to buy tickets for the fabulous Home and Garden Tour- www.oirf.org, your chance to visit some of our stunning island homes. Tour each home and view the creative renovations, unique interiors and tropical landscaping. Each tour features 5 private homes. Friday, February 12, 2010 - Saturday, February 13, 2010 <p>Come and stick your toes in the sand!
