Support the independent voice of South Florida and help keep the future of New Times free.
The Florida Spiny Lobster is walking, thanks to the recent hurricanes that passed through the Keys. Our Keys lobsters are taking a mass holiday and sauntering up the coast close to shore -- they're expected to reach Miami today and Palm Beach tomorrow. Intrepid foodies, pull out those lobster gloves and nets, because grabbing our favorite decapod is going to be like shooting fish in a barrel -- a Lantana fisherman told me last night we should be able to practically wade out from shore to grab our dinner. But don't get greedy: the legal take is 6 lobsters per person.
Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering South Florida with no paywalls.
