Garlic Knots And Legendary Chicken Spaghetti Put This Lake Butler, Florida Restaurant On The Map

A small pizza joint in rural Florida now turns out cannoli, scratch marinara, and mozzarella sticks made in house. That’s a lot of ambition packed into one small kitchen. The menu reads like a love letter to Italian-American comfort food. Garlic knots, chicken parm, eggplant parm, stromboli, and wings tossed in flavors like mango habanero all share space on one menu.

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.

These 9 Florida Restaurants Are Keeping Nearly Forgotten Southern Recipes Alive

One Florida dining room serves venison and quail between shelves of books and old taxidermy. Another smokes mullet over red oak wood, the way it has for more than 70 years. I love that these dishes still exist at all. Frog legs, swamp cabbage, tomato gravy, and pea pickin’ cake used to be everyday food for Cracker families. Now most menus skip them completely.

Skip the baking: Where to buy Thanksgiving pies in Jacksonville

Any way you slice it, Thanksgiving and Christmas are prime time for pie. For many of us, these holidays create cravings for fresh scratch-made pumpkin, pecan, sweet potato, apple or decadent chocolate cream pie as the dessert centerpiece of our holiday table.

The pre-order window for pies and other holiday desserts might already have closed (so save this link for next year), but desserts for walk-in customers may still be available. Although some bakeries might have pies available for walk-in customers leading up to the Nov. 26 holiday, there is no guarantee. 1748 Bakehouse 1748 N. Main St. in historic Springfield, (904) 374-2541, 1748bakehouse.com Nov. 13 is the cutoff date to order your apple, pecan or roasted pumpkin pies (also available with gluten-free crusts).
