When it’s my time to cash in my chips, I want my last meal to be at Billy’s Oyster Bar in Panama City Beach, Florida. I just returned from my second visit in about fifteen hours. I just could not control myself. This funky joint came highly recommended not for the ambiance, but for the…

Pan-Roasted Striped Bass with Rosemary, Vegetables and Tomato
If you are one of those people who likes to grill year ’round (like me), then do this: put the fish on the grill with your rosemary and close the lid. Let the fragrance of the rosemary fill the grill and seep into your fish. It will add another depth of flavor. But don’t let…
