This is a personal favorite of mine! I recommend the pomme pavé (a creamy potato "cupcake") and the rotating array of charcuterie (the chef assembles it at your table), but everything I have had here is fantastic! Dinner menu changes almost daily. Go and be surprised!

Foodie DIY

Another great seafood market--this one in downtown Panama City.
Didn't catch anything on your deep-sea trip? Need fresh seafood for a cookout or to take home with you? Buddy Gandy's has you covered. These fish (and crab and shrimp and oysters) slept in the bay last night.

Sightseeing

So many great things to do in town--on the water and off.
Walk down and watch the sunset every evening. Buy fresh shrimp straight off the boat. Stop at a nearby bar and have a drink on your way back (as long as the shrimp is on ice!).
