Key West Introduction

Hello, my friends!  Welcome to another installment of The Key West Chronicles!  

Thank you to Uncle Gene and Aunt Nancy for their awesome contribution.  

I TRULY appreciate it, and them!  

I'll be posting one a day til they're done.  

Be a dear & comment, would you?  

Have you been to the Keys?  Are you planning a trip?

What's your favorite color?  No, wait, not that one!  

What's your favorite dish featured here?

There may be a contest for comments going on in one of these posts, so keep your eyes peeled and fingers ready!  : )  

And now, without further ado...

Carrie has once again asked her somewhat addled uncle to contribute some entries to her much celebrated  food blog. It is back to that 100 mile chain of islands that stretch from the tip of Florida into the gulf of Mexico.

Yes, it is back to the keys!

This time we will be eating our way around that wild and mysterious place called Key West. (The Spanish called it Cayo Hueso, translated “Isle of Bones”, because is was covered with bones of many Indian battles that took place there. Drunk Americans couldn't pronounce that, so they called it Key West … Close enough)

There are lots of cool places to eat in Key West. Hope we can pass on some useful information and get you a little hungry along the way.

The picture is Key West harbor near sunset. We did a lot of eating and enjoying this view at the same time. Food always tastes better with the ocean in the neighborhood.

Bon  Ton  Roulett   Y'All  
Gene and Nancy

So far but yet so near.”
