Naked blue cod, chips and a hot dog.
With tartare sauce, lemon juice and beer unfused tomato sauce on the hot dog.
Not a fan of seafood but every now and then get a craving for blue cod or sole fillet.
It was amazing best blue cod and hot dog I've ever had. Chips were great but not the best but 0 regrets. Approx $15 usd and I gave a puce of fish and most if the chips away.
Back into my internet free black hole.
I love finding little family run places with fantastic food. The only better culinary experience is good home-cooked food with friends & family.
Don‘t get me wrong- the high-end stuff may be fantastic, but it’s less…relaxed.

Today was my maternal aunt’s birthday, and her youngest son’s birthday was last week. So I took the pair of them out to a seafood place (of her choosing) to celebrate.
(No pix taken.)
We had a good meal and a good time. The last time I was in that place, I had their chargrilled oysters for the first time, and repeated that experience tonight. Then I had some clam chowder and- because @Zardnaar has been making me hungry- some fish & chips. I doubt theyre even in the same ballpark, quality wise, as what HE gets, but I was happy. Along with the fries, I had some sautéed/wilted garlic spinach.
My aunt also had the oysters- no surprise, because she’s the one who tipped me off to how good they were at this place- and a crab & shrimp stuffed flounder. Her sides were the menu standard mashed potatoes and green beans.
My cousin decided to be adventurous for once. Initially, he was going to have a shrimp po’boy. But when it came time to order, he decided to have a bowl of their crab bisque and the same entree as his mom. However, instead of the standard sides, he subbed a cup of gumbo for the green beans.
