True cod 'n chips - Anthony's Fish Bar
3 piece Alaska true cod with French fries, tartar sauce. $7.99
Anthony’s Fish Bar, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA)

There’s a little place in my heart for Anthony’s restaurants because I worked at their Bell Street Diner on Pier 66 during a summer in college. I really can’t fairly compare food from their fish bar at the Sea-Tac airport to their regular offerings, but I will say that I was not impressed. The fish tasted ok, but they were a little greasy and limp. The fries were also a bit wilted so I would say that this was a sad basket overall.

Herb butter roasted lamb loin - Luce
Broccoli di ciccio, pluot, brown butter. Tasting menu $95
Luce, San Francisco CA

This was a miss for me. The flavors were there, but the texture of the lamb loin was really rubbery and squishy at the same time. It was off-putting and kind of ruined the rest of the great components on the plate. 😦

Pork dip sandwich - Percy's & Co.
On baguette, sweet onion marmalade, wilted pea vines, pork jus. Happy hour $7
Percy’s & Co., Seattle WA

This sandwich was SO good! I mean who doesn’t love dipping sandwiches in delicious jus?! The pea vines were also a nice twist on greens and the onion marmalade was a great “condiment”. NOMS!
