Drink Like Hemingway (maybe not all the time though) Here's picture of Hemingway's barstool at the City Park Grill in Petoskey. Michael Palin's Hemingway Adventure takes you past a few more of Hemingway's favorite watering holes. Another one is Sloppy Joe's in Key West. Owner Joe Russell was a charter boat captain, rumrunner, Hemingway's boat pilot, and the author's fishing companion for twelve years and it was there that Hemingway purportedly invented the Papa Doble daquiri. Listen to Hemingway reading Harry's Bar in Venice from Salon.com. If you'd like to throw a party nobody will forget, how about the Hemingway Home in Key West (click parties for rental info).

Eat like Hemingway: Craig Boreth has written The Hemingway Cookbook, which takes you from Nick Adams's streamside coffee and canned beans with ketchup to Jake's roast suckling pig at Casa Botín. If a new cookbook isn't in your budget, you can still get Hemingway's Trout Recipe - we'll take you to some of his favorite Michigan trout streams in a future post! ...of course, if you're going to eat like Hemingway, you might as well talk like Hemingway too!
