I know oner person who will be so happy when Shaq’s Big Chicken restaurant comes to Florida…Fester!
Not only does he does Fester do an amazing impersonation of Shaquille O’Neal, but he’s also a BIG fan. Alison, Fester’s lovely wife, and the big NBA Hall-of-Famer share a birthday. Shaq does it all…from basketball commentating to DJ’ing to having investments in all kinds of businesses. He’s quite the renaissance man. He’s got a restaurant called Big Chicken, and it’s coming to Florida! There’s a restaurant group in the Panhandle that Shaq has teamed up with so that he can open one of his Big Chickens in North Florida.
He signed another deal with DMD Ventures, which should lead to deals for the restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Orlando (259 East Michigan Street), Tampa Bay and West Palm Beach. We don’t know when a Tampa location might open. But we’ll be looking forward to trying Shaq’s chicken!

Four Favorite Wellness Treatments In Tampa
You only have one body so you may as well try your best to take care of it. There are some wellness treatments available in Tampa that you might want to try to incorporate into your routine.
If you want to stay healthy, there a couple of important things you need to focus on daily: proper nutrition and hydration; adequate sleep; movement. After you’ve gotten those areas under control, there other modalities and treatments you can look at that can improve your overall health and wellness.
Have you ever gotten a chiropractic adjustment? Chiropractic treatments can help you with spine alignment and relief from back and joint pain. I love Conforti Chiropractic, because they treat your whole body, offering nutritional information and exercises to do at home.
I love to get massages. You can go for a Swedish massage to soothe tired muscles. Or you can go for a deep tissue massage to work out knotted muscles in a more therapeutic manner. Either way, a massage is guaranteed to help you de-stress and relax. It’s easy when you have a membership at a place like Massage Envy.
I’m a big fan of acupuncture. I was first introduced to it when I was trying to get pregnant and someone told me that it could help to make fertility treatments work better. I’m scared of needles, but acupuncture needles are so tiny. You don’t feel them at all. And it’s so relaxing to just lie there and not do ANYTHING while the needles are in place.
Have you tried cryotherapy? Shocking your body by exposing it to low temperatures in a cryochamber for a short period of time can be very helpful to your body and help with circulation. You can experience cryotherapy and/or red-light therapy at Restore Hyper Wellness in Westchase.
