The Keys and Key Lime Pie

  

It seems that every restaurant in The Florida Keys publicizes their key lime pie as the best.  The key (pardon the pun) is to find one that suits your taste.  Luckily for us, our friend Irene recommended The Cracked Conch Cafe.  On the way back from Key West we split a slice of pie at Irene’s recommended dining spot and it was indeed lovely!  The meringue wasn’t too citrusy; it was sweeter than expected and had the consistency of a cheesecake.  In addition, our slice of heaven came with a crisp graham cracker crust.  It was perfect with Matt’s Cuban coffee and Jenn’s hot tea.  Thanks to Irene for the yummy recommendation!
