A tour of a local lake was scheduled for 10:00 this morning, and the two Captain Bros did not disappoint. They provided some very insightful and interesting information and nuggets of trivia about the surroundings. They even personally delivered us to a local lakeside eating establishment!
There, I was intrigued by a burger that featured tomato bacon jam. Now, anyone who knows me (both of them) will tell you that I loath tomatoes, but I was feeling a tinge of boldness today. So I ordered it. And I liked it. It also boasted pepper jack cheese and onion straws on a brioche bun. It came with homemade chips seasoned with tropical spices.
For dinner, we revisited an old favorite. The best peel and eat shrimp in all the land is smack dab in the middle of one of the largest Greek communities in Florida. One is more likely to find an excellent gyro and decent sponge than a good grouper sandwich in this coastal community. But there's a hidden gem tucked away in the midst of an apparent turf war raging between restaurant owners and landlords alike. But this hasn't effected food quality. I got half a pound of shrimp and a chicken philly with provolone, green peppers, and onions. Fries on the side and the leftover shrimp from other whereabouts round out the meal and the day.
