Key West Part 2

Sunday, March 18, 2012

 Lunch at Kelly's
301 Whitehead Street at Caroline Street

 Came here to eat conch fritters
as heard that they do the best ones here.

Do not leave Key West without trying conch!
Conch is a shellfish,
the one where you can hear the sound of the ocean.
Key West = the Conch Republic

 Big and meaty with some spices.
(the best conch fritters ever are the ones they do 
at Harbour Lodge in Hope Town, Elbow Cay in the Bahamas!)

 Crab cakes were not on the menu,
but got them anyway!
My favourites! Here with slices of pineapple.

 House salad with green leaves, strawberries and nuts
was extremely delicious.

 Got there just in time - at 1pm it was already packed.
The plastic chairs is not so nice idea,
but in laid-back Key West it doesn't really bother.

 The house was formerly the first home of Pan Am Airlines.
The first round-trip ticket to Havana was sold here in 1927.
Caroline Street is nice, leafy, quiet street.

On Whitehead Street opposite Kelly's is 
Harry S Truman's The Little White House.
Hemingway's home is also on Whitehead Street,
the street ends at the Southernmost Point.

  1. Hei,
    kiitos kommentoinnistasi blogissani 8)
    Piti heti tarttua kirjaimiin ja kommentoida, kun huomasin, että olet Budabestista.
    Me olemme suunnitelleet sinne matkaa jo pitkään, ja nyt se sit toteutuu huhti-toukokuun vaihteessa, mieheni ,siskoni ja hänen miehensä kanssa.
    Olemme siellä kolme päivää eli pienen kaupunkiloman verran.
    Nyt tietenkin olen kiinnostunut kovinkin blogistasi ja vinkeistä Budabestin ruokailu, nähtävyys ym paikoista.
    Huomenna aloitan blogisi lukemisen läpi, jospa minä sieltä vinkkejä saisin.
    Mukavaa alkaavaa viikkoa!
    -päivi-
