We just got off the plane from seeing Dry Tortugas National Park, but we're in Key West
So we're gonna try some local delicacies while we're here. I'm looking forward to some conch and shrimp
I don't know what conch is to be honest. I mean I can picture it, but it's slimy right? No, it shouldn't be slimy
It'll be fried. It'll be it'll be in a little fritter like a little crab cake, but aren't conchs big? Some are, some aren't
Alright, I really don't even know what conch is, but I do love shrimp, so I will be eating some of that
I
Parking is $5 an hour
We're gonna start with the Key West beer
American-style amber ale
It's a beer
What is going on with these birds? It's not something you expect
They gave us a lime, so I'm gonna use a lime
Naturally they come with a key lime aioli, fancy way of saying mayo
These are fresh and hot
It's really good. It's bready, but you can still definitely get the giant
Pieces of conch in there. Got a little lime flavor to them too. These are really hot
It doesn't taste like anything I haven't had before
Like I would never know what was in this, but it's good
Those had a little spice to them. That was good
There was nothing crazy about it though, like it didn't have some weird texture or flavor
It was just something fried and the sauce was really good, so you mix the two and it's kind of perfect
The sauce was really good. Had a little kick to it at the end just a little bit
You can definitely taste the small little hunks of conch, but they don't have a whole lot of flavor to them. Just saw an iguana
Did I get a little toasty today?
Looks like it. To get out of the hustle and bustle of Key West, we came to Keys Fisheries in Marathon, Florida
We're drinking water because seafood is expensive and we're cheap
This looks really good
All of this is grilled
It's hard to get out. You got it, bite the lobster. Last thing I want to do is flick some lobster around
Is this supposed to peel off?
Why is it so tough?
There we go, yeah, look at that
That's a good bite
It's so juicy
So juicy
I'm gonna try some shrimp
This is well-seasoned, honestly
My first time trying mahi-mahi
I don't notice a difference between any fish
It's good, but
Fish is fish to me
Should've just taken her to McDonald's
The difference with mahi-mahi
and other fish
is it's not as flaky, tastes more like chicken
If you're looking for something that tastes like fish
mahi's not your choice
This is still really good
So we stuck with water
Just this plate was $34.95
They gave us a good covering of everything
They were out of scallops, so they gave us a little extra shrimp
Otherwise
This is delicious
We also got
Key lime pie
The last thing you need to try when you come to the Keys
is key lime pie
And on the menu it said homemade, award-winning key lime pie
So we're here to try it
Really limey, pretty creamy
More custardy than I would've thought
Still really good
Apparently you need to get here a little earlier than
6 o'clock
I think we got here at 5 and it was
nobody
I wouldn't say nobody, but we were in line for about 10-15 minutes
