Key West Pink Prawns at Salt in Amelia Island, FL. I loved this Pink Prawns appetizer at Salt, a wonderful restaurant at the Ritz Carlton in Amelia Island. The prawns were wrapped in phyllo dough (the thin spaghetti-like noodle in the pic) and accompanied by grits, tomato marmalade, and a goat cheese mousse. The two large prawns were cooked just right (not overdone at all) and the phyllo gave it a nice crunch that meshed well with the flavors of the grits, green and red tomatoes, and goat cheese. Salt is a Bigtime restaurant that is tough to get into at times, but you can dine in the lobby area on a first come, first served basis. Don't miss it if you're anywhere near the Jacksonville / Amelia Island part of Florida!
