While the month is ending, so many of our favorite businesses are worth celebrating year-round. The number of those run by talented and hard-working women is borderline more than we count.<\/p>\n<p>To close out the month and to encourage support of our local businesses all year long, our staff is highlighting some of our favorite women-owned spots that we frequent in the area. From restaurants to shops and everything in between, these are the places that keep the city (and us) running. This isn\u2019t a comprehensive list by any means \u2013 our team had a hard time cutting it down to a manageable list. But these local stars are certainly great places to start.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bakenbabes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bake\u2019n Babes<br \/><\/a>Dex\u2019s pick: They\u2019re one of the most recognizable (and great-tasting) cookie shops in Tampa for good reason, and their milkshakes make the perfect pair with a fresh cookie.<br \/>231 E Davis Blvd<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eatbamboozle.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bamboozle<\/a><br \/>Kirby\u2019s pick: On Channelside or in The Heights, Bamboozle\u2019s health-conscious Vietnamese fusion eats are an almost weekly pick for a satisfying lunch. <br \/>7107 N Florida Ave or 109 N 12th St.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bloomingfloralcafe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Blooming Floral Cafe<br \/><\/a>Maryelis\u2019s pick: Tampa\u2019s first floral cafe, Blooming Floral is an oasis in the city filled with color and warmth, as well as great aromas from the drinks and flowers alike.<br \/>4408 N Florida Ave<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Interior champagne bar.
