Several years ago we stopped at a lovely little place called the Island Tiki Bar in marathon for some lunch. I recall it being quite good and laid back. They seem to have redone the place so now there is an actual parking lot (not just rocks), a huge seating area, including a large outdoor space . . . → Read More: The Island

You know by now I am foodie, I am a wine geek and I am obsessed with all things Key West. I am not, however, a fancy car person, an expensive watch person or an expensive toy person.

Last . . . → Read More: Expensive Toys Going out on a boat is really one of the great joys of being in the Florida Keys. Sadly for me, I don’t own a boat, so either I need to (a) go on some sort of party boat, (b) charter a boat or (c) find a friend with a boat.

This is the one where people dress up, march around . . . → Read More: Size Matters It had been years since I last visited Mangia Mangia on Southard Street. Why it had been so long, I have no idea. Mangia Mangia has one of the best restaurant wine lists around, and most likely the best in Key West (although I think a little more hands-on research is needed here.) Fantasy Fest weekend . . . → Read More: Mangia Mangia Fantasy Fest seems to inspire all kinds – truly creative costumes, amazing body painting and, for some people, nudity for the sake of nudity. The parade is a huge array of floats with thousands of spectators. All in all, a good time. Here you will find some photos of the parade, and some of the more . . . → Read More: Fantasy Fest Parade |
