Cracked Conch Cafe Marathon in the Keys-Terrific!

AmericanPressTravelNews-February 12th, Bob & Barb “On the Road Again” this time in Marathon, near the 7-Mile Bridge at the Cracked Conch Cafe!

Since 1979, this Cafe sells breakfast to 4 PM, and open 7-days per week. The food here is quite extraordinarily good. So many different dishes-how about conch with poached eggs, with fried oysters, fish, Bolo ham,or strip steaks, Coast of Italy sauteed shrimp with eggs and roasted peppers, or Taylor Pork Roll sauteed with eggs, and all the above with incredible Hollandaise sauce. Look them up on the web at: www.conchcafe.com and check out all their many dishes. Located at 4999 Overseas Hwy. Marathon, Florida Keys 305-743-2233

Conch in wine sauce, lots of mushrooms and incredible chewy, tasty conch-so love this dish!
Eggs Florentine with spinach, mushrooms, w/Hollandaise sauce! What a breakfast meal!

 

DJ’s Diner & Seafood Grill Like the 1950’s Great Foods, Great Service-Very Nice People!

AmericanPressTravelNews- Feb.-11th, Bob and Barb “On The Road Again” this time in Key Largo at DJ’s Diner & Seafood Grill.

Besides waffles, pancakes, eggs any way you like, we probably enjoyed the best pot roast luncheon ever! D.J. Miller owner was the 1st Miami Subs franchisee, and he was instrumental in creating their menu. D.J. told me he decided to follow his family tradition and keep the spirit of a 50’s diner, at the same time being trendy and a crossover to classy and sexy foods, too! Here you can get a fab burger, or a grouper piccata, a salad with fish or shrimp, or just the fore mentioned incredible meat and taters. Formerly the Port Largo Coffee Shop opened in 1957, the newer D’J’s opened in the same location in 2000. Very highly recommended!

D.J’s Diner & Seafood Grill is located on 99411 Overseas Hwy, Key Largo, FL 33037 (305) 451-2999.  djsdinerkeylargo@aol.com

Barb loves a meat dish once and awhile too! She found it at Leroy's. This (short ribs) beef was succulent ! She ate as much as she wanted and I kissed off the rest of my naked crab and slayed what was left of her beef cow! Loved it even as it was cooled down! If it tasted great hot or cold its truly great beef!

AmericanPressTravelNews-February 9th, Bob & Barb On the Road Again in the Keys and also Virginia Beach. Its been heartening to know that many new entrepreneurs are going into the fish farming business. The demand for several fish species as well as “bottom crawlers” such as crab, Conch, lobster, shrimp is overwhelming today! Imagine, cobia farms, pompano farms, snapper, etc. Yes, these are setting up and a few ongoing already! See Florida Trend Magazine October 2016!!!!!!!
