Two things come to mind when I think of the Florida Panhandle along the Gulf Coast.
Citrus and shrimp.
Well, actually three things come to mind, college girls in string bikinis is the other one but that's a different story for a different blog.
Ursula and I enjoy this dinner after a hard day at the beach. Easy to do, very little prep, just open a bottle of Corona, sit down and enjoy.
