7 Florida Seafood Buffets Where Snow Crab Legs Keep Coming Until You Tap Out

I have a firm rule about snow crab legs. If someone else is doing the steaming and the refilling, I’m not stopping at one plate. Florida has a surprising number of buffets that treat snow crab legs like a main event instead of a rare treat. One of them even pairs the crab with whole lobster, and it has been feeding hungry crowds for decades.

Southerners love their bourbon, and they feel a strong ownership over this particular style of whiskey. After all, bourbon has deep roots in Kentucky, and classic Southern drinks like the mint julep rely on bourbon’s slightly sweet character and caramel-like flavor notes. The Southern appreciation for everything bourbon-related also extends to desserts, like bourbon balls. And there’s one variation that combines the best of bourbon cocktails and bourbon sweet treats: bourbon cream.

7 Florida Dollar-Stretching Grocery Outlets Where Brand-Name Pantry Staples Fill A Whole Cart

My favorite grocery fact this year involves a Florida salvage store that once sold bikes. Not bike baskets, actual bikes, at up to 60 percent off, a few aisles from the canned beans. That’s the energy of the stores on this list. They buy overstock, closeouts, and reclaimed goods, then...

Forget Fancy Burgers, This Little Florida Joint Keeps Locals Coming Back for the Classics

The fries here get cut fresh and cooked in beef tallow. That one detail tells you a lot about how this little burger counter thinks. The burgers hit an open flame, not a flat griddle. The milkshakes get hand dipped. The menu stays short on purpose, built around burgers and Vienna Beef hot dogs.
