Keylimemania! The Florida Keys Best Key Lime Everything, Key West, Florida

16 years ago to be exact. A tiny 8-year-old Casiedillita and Guacamommy visited Key West for a day. We went on a mini mission to hunt down the best Key Lime Pie in Key West. This was my very first hungry mission…and by golly, 4 pies later, a food-obsessed Casiedilla was born! I will never forget that day…

Fast forward: It’s September, 2016. Upon my ephemeral return back to the U.S., Guacamommy and I thought it was only fitting to revisit history. However, this time, 10x the mission. Mission ignite in 3, 2, 1…

Over the course of 3 days, we tried 3 samplings of Key Lime Ice Cream, 3 variations of Key Lime “real food”, entered 9 Key Lime-styled art boutiques, stayed at 1 Key Lime Hotel and ate 15 Key Lime Pies. That’s right, 15. (Splitting each piece, of course. I have to maintain my triangular figure!) Limey-ladies and gents? The winners…

First, let’s talk lodging. After hours upon hours of research on hotel sites for the best boutique hotels in Key West, we found the Key Lime Inn! After all, what better name could it have?! An adorable Key’s styled historic house with little cottages, it was the perfect charming place for our stay. And the staff was an absolute delight! (725 Truman Ave, Key West, FL 33040) ......
