πβπ© What Should You Actually Eat in Key West?
|
Hey Reader, It's Throwback Tuesday, and today we're tackling a very important Key West vacation question... What should you EAT while you're there? π΄π΄ Because here's the problem. You only get so many breakfasts, lunches, happy hours and dinners on a Key West vacation. And there is absolutely no reason to waste one of them on a boring meal. π π Check out my guide to What to Eat in Key West here:β There Are a Few Things I Think You Have to TryI'm not saying you need a strict food itinerary. Actually, that sounds a little too organized for Key West. But there are certain flavors that just belong to the island. β Start a morning with Cuban coffee. π€ Try Key West pink (or red) shrimp. π Order the fresh catch or a great fish sandwich. π₯ͺ Have some Cuban food. πβπ© Eat Key lime pie. Maybe more than once. You are conducting research. πΉ And at some point, find a happy hour, order something yummy and enjoy the fact that you are sitting in Key West. That's a pretty good vacation day right there. Here's My Favorite Way to Do ItDon't try to cram every famous restaurant into one trip. Pick a few places you really want to try... Then leave some room for the unexpected. Maybe someone sitting next to you at the bar tells you about a great little place. Maybe you walk past a place and whatever they're cooking smells too good to ignore. Or maybe you're having such a good time somewhere that you decide to stay and order another appetizer. Those unplanned meals can end up being some of the best ones. And Please...Do not save Key lime pie for your last night. This is important. π Try it early. Then you have the rest of the trip to try another slice somewhere else. Again... Research. Quick QuestionIf you were sending someone to Key West for the FIRST time, what's the ONE thing you'd tell them they absolutely have to eat? πβπ© Key lime pie π€ Key West pink (or red) shrimp π₯ͺ Cuban food π Fresh fish π¦ͺ Conch fritters Or something completely different? Hit reply and tell me. I have a feeling we're going to get some strong opinions on this one! Until next Tuesday, come hungry, leave room for pie, and always keep it Key West-y. π΄ Cheers, Michele βοΈπ
