Dear Wellness Seekers,

Oxford Exchange Eatery & Emporium Offers Lifestyle Treasures is Part Two of this week’s series featuring this one of a kind destination in Tampa, Florida.

Spanista sees it as an example of true expression of Spa Chic Style because it is warm, inviting, grounded in the history yet ever so sophisticated. Contributing to the enjoyment of my recent visit was the wonderful boutique like atmosphere and fantastic presentation of the tastefully curated collection of offerings.

Let’s start by talking food at Oxford Exchange. There are two seating areas – an interior salon setting  and a patio. As you can see, the patios is so inviting flooded with bright light from atrium style skylights. Open and airy it is surprisingly conducive to conversation with out the usual noise that come with a space that is full of people at peak time. The brunch menu was delightful with a range of indulgences. The Executive Chef is Erin Guggiano. She was named Top 10 Under 40 by South Tampa Magazine. This woman brings a new approach to fresh to life. Stand outs on this particular day are the richest banana pancakes I ever saw, a healthy kale egg white scramble onto a lobster club with sweet potato. My friend chooses the lobster club. Feeling the Spanista need to eat clean I choose the scramble. So yummy we lingered over many topics.

With food now ticked off the list of things to do, we move on. Within the architectural framework these pics attempt to give you a sense of the broader experience. The expansive space flows comfortably from one themed zone to another. There are charming tableau settings that are ever so artful. You just want to step back and take in ever element while appreciating the talented point of view that set these scenes for all to enjoy. We are compelled to touch everything in sight!

My impression of the Lifestyle Immersion Zones:

1. Precious adornments for the collector

2. Pillows, throws and decor for the comfortable the home great room

3. Cooking inspiration – books, kitchen linens, table ware for the foodies

4. Personal enrichments and treasures for life in the study or office

This could only get better with a Day Spa experience s part of the service offering.
