Ted Peters Smoked Fish Description:
One of the few remaining "Old Florida" landmarks.
A family-owned institution in the Pasadena area of St. Petersburg; Ted Peters' rustic restaurant has operated nearly unchanged for more than 50 years.
Just follow your nose as you drive down Pasadena Avenue. The aroma of smoked fish is a beacon to one of the best venues for casual seafood in town. This is one of the area's institutions, a purveyor of some of the best smoked mullet, smoked salmon and smoked mackerel on the west coast of Florida since 1951. The mackerel sells the best, perhaps because it comes with the fewest bones and a mild flavor. The smoked mullet is for hardcore Florida residents used to the distinct flavor, suggests the owner. His smoked fish spread, however, is a hit with everyone, available for sandwiches on site and takeout. Surprisingly, the other item that made Ted Peter's an institution has nothing to do with smoked fish. It's German potato salad from a simple, yet irresistible, recipe: Idaho potatoes, bacon (and plenty of bacon grease), onions, salt, pepper and vinegar. And it's served warm, even in the hottest days of summer. You'll have no regrets.
