El Pass-O Cafe in Madeira Beach, Florida has won the Best of the Tampa Bay award for its award winning Mad Pepper Co. hotsauces.  The winning sauce was Mother'n Law's Revenge, a tropical fruit sauce with the kick of the red habanero pepper.  As the article announcing the award said "When folks in Madeira Beach break out in a sweat, it ain't from the sun.  They've been eating Dave Stone's cooking.  For eight years he's been using his El Pass-o Cafe as the testing grounds for a bevy of hot sauces. Most hot sauce boils down to vinegar and peppers.  Not Dave's, whose combinations of peppers, fruits and herbs produce sauces with all the complexity and depth of a fine wine, all the heat of hell." Check us out at http://www2.infousa.com/madpepco.
