Florida is one of the best tourist destinations in the world and it has a lot to offer: fun theme parks, breathtaking views, relaxing beaches and vibrant marine life. However, it’s also a great place to eat. Here are two things to make sure you have while in Florida.
Florida is all about citrus, in fact oranges and limes grow in abundance. So while you’re here, make sure you take advantage of this. Freshly squeezed orange juice is the best way to start the day – you won’t find this drink better than here. Citrus is also taking over the desert and you can find amazing citrus based treats like Key Lime Pie, in fact this is one of the best desserts in the world especially if you try it in the Florida Keys.
Since Florida is on the coast, it naturally has some amazing seafood. Wherever you go, you’ll find incredibly fresh dishes like shrimp, red snapper, and clams. All of this food is prepared in delicious American recipes that will delight your palate. Travel to local seaside restaurants to enjoy this food as it is best served. This incredible seafood is truly one of the highlights of a Florida vacation.
Florida certainly has its own unique cuisine, but visitors from abroad will also enjoy the chance to sample delicacies that are common throughout the country. In fact, while the United States may not have France’s reputation when it comes to culinary achievement, it has still brought us so many famous dishes like hamburgers, huge steaks, and twice-baked potatoes. So be sure to try a really amazing burger or a giant pizza full of meat and cheese. One thing to keep in mind is portion sizes: the American idea of a serving for one could feed two people quite easily. With this in mind, make sure you don’t over-order because if you’re not careful, you’ll find your table groaning under the weight of all the food you have to tackle.
Vacations in Florida are a great pleasure for tourists of all descriptions; however, while enjoying Walt Disney World Resort or the golf course, be sure to try some of the local food. You’ll really enjoy the delicious citrus fruit and amazingly fresh seafood prepared in the classic American style. Food is just one more thing that makes Florida an amazing destination.
