The most sumptuous and satisfying meal was at "The Stoned Crab" in Key West. As the name of the restaurant suggests, the main dish is stone crab. The local stone crabs are famous for their sweet and juicy crab meat, but only the claws are eaten. After they are cooked, the shells are smashed with a mallet and served on the table.

It is also the capital of the Conch Republic, the world's shortest independent conch republic. On April 23, 1982, Mayor Dennis Wardlow declared independence because of opposition to the US Border Patrol's establishment of a road checkpoint in Key West to check illegal immigration and smuggling. He led the people to rush into the local air force base, confronted the US military with water guns and threw bread, and announced his surrender to the US military a minute later.
