The Florida Keys

Best Eating in the Florida Keys

By //  by Candace Sampson

One of the things I loved most about The Florida Keys is that it's not home to a million chain restaurants. In fact, you're hard pressed to find one. You know what this means, right?

And I don't know if it's the warm breezes, the salty air or the attitude of the latitude, but they all get along in perfect harmony. It's roaming roosters, tall libations and seafood so fresh, it practically flops on your plate. It's cool too, …
