Sunset in Carrabelle<\/p><\/div>\n

I don’t usually blog about small towns that I visit just once, but our trip into and through Carrabelle, FL (pop. 2,778) was interesting enough to warrant its own post.<\/p>\n

First, we, quite by accident and more due to laziness than an actual plan, headed west into Carrabelle just in time to catch the sunset. The spectacular, breathtaking sunset. I simply admired it for a few miles, then realized that I should be taking a few photos. I caught the tail end of the sunset, so some of the colors had faded, but it was still stunningly beautiful.<\/p>\n

Second, because it was late and we were hungry, we decided to dine out. Carrabelle doesn’t offer a wide variety of dining options, particularly if you exclude Subway and pizza joints. But we passed the Fathoms Steam Room and Raw Bar<\/a> on our way through town and Jett thought it looked sufficiently interesting to give it a try. We almost missed it on our return trip, because it had gotten quite dark, and when we stopped we almost moved on as there were some very sketchy guys hanging out, with a few Harleys outside. But our hunger got the better of us and we decided to take on chance on what we thought was a biker bar.<\/p>\n

We are glad we did. Jett ordered the crab leg dinner which was, in her view, quite good, with a steamed vegetable medley (well, more a duo than a medley – broccoli and potatoes) that was arguably tastier than the crab. I opeted for the seared tuna sandwich. I like seared tuna, but have never had it in sandwich form. It was spectacular. Perfectly seared and seasoned, in Texas toast. I think it was one of the best sandwiches ever. Outstanding!<\/p>\n

Fathoms is rated only #4 of 11 among restaurants in Carrabelle (where are the other 10?), but I would give it 5 stars. If you are ever in Carrabelle (and why would you be?), give it a try.<\/p>\n
