No. 25: Conch Salad From Sheila's Famous BBQ, Conch & More
salad from Sheila's Famous BBQ, Conch, and More in Lake Worth: this roadside shack, with roots as a roadside 'cue truck, prepares its conch simply. The squeaky bits of conch are chopped and bathed in a tangy broth of lime juice and Scotch bonnet peppers, a blend that both tenderizes it and gives air to the accompanying tomato, onion, and green pepper salad it's mixed with. A little cracked pepper here, a touch more fresh squeezed lime there, and the conch becomes something of legend. It's both a pleasant promise of the bounty of the Atlantic, and a poignant reminder not to fuss too much with a good thing.
