Eating Key Lime Pie in an 1889 Cracker House in Lantana, Florida

Old Key Lime House has been standing strong since 1889, waking up sleepy little Lantana with its cheerful pastel shutters and zingy key lime pie. After weathering some of the most devastating hurricanes of the 20th century, from the Okeechobee hurricane of 1928 to the infamous Andrew, this surprisingly steadfast heart-of-pine cracker house persevered to become home to the best key lime pie in the south. Grab a stool under the chickee hut out back, under palm fronds scrupulously woven by a Seminole chief to withstand even the most relentless winds, and get lost in time enjoying forkfuls of old-fashioned goodness as a salty breeze drifts in from the sea.
