Food's of Florida

One of the best parts about going on vacation is trying all the delicious food from that place.  Last week I visited my grandparents in Naples Florida and all the food there was amazing. One of my favorite things that  I had while I was in Florida was the homemade strawberry ice cream that I got from a small little ice cream shop right on the ocean. It had actual pieces of strawberries in it and it wasn’t just made with strawberry flavoring. When we were there my cousin got a coconut ice cream and she said it was the best ice cream she’s had in her life.
One day we went out to lunch and the special was “Bang Bang Shrimp” so my cousin and I both got it and it was amazing. It was fried shrimp dipped in some kind of tempura sauce and it was served over lettuce and it was delicious. We both finished our entire meal in less than ten minutes because we loved it so much. While we were there and my grandpa got steamed clams and they came in a plate with some of the clam juice still on the bottom so he took his bread and dipped it into the clam juice. When I first saw it I thought it would be disgusting because usually those two things don’t mix, but I tried dipping a small piece of my bread into it and surprisingly it was really good!
Every Saturday morning my grandparents go to the farmers market that is near their house, so when my cousin and I were there they decided to take us. The farmers market had so many fresh fruits and vegetables and they were all so colorful and ripe and looked delicious. There was also a bunch of homemade pastries so my cousin and I got fresh bagels. She got cinnamon and sugar and I got blueberry and we split them and they were the freshest, softest bagels I’ve ever had in my life. Most bagels are hard when you bite into them but these ones were so soft even after we toasted them. Overall my trip to Florida was fantastic and the week went by so fast and I wasn’t ready to leave. The food and the warm weather combined just made it fantastic and I can’t wait to go back!

Have you ever had the chance to eat in a "Bonefish" restaurant? That was where I first experienced Bang Bang shrimp, which IS DELICIOUS. One of the best things about knowing how to cook is having the skills to recreate yummy things you've eaten in restaurants. I have made bang bang shrimp many times. Perhaps I'll post a recipe for it for you to try at home.
