I love padron peppers! They’re even easy to make a home, but it’s so much easier to order them at a restaurant. Lol

Steamed clams – Luc
Pernod broth, toasted fennel oil. Happy hour $5

I usually prefer mussels over clams because they’re meatier and less work to eat, but these were yummy! I’m glad this came with the grilled bread to soak up the delicious broth.

Borscht tartare – Abe Fisher
Trout roe, sour cream, onion potato chips, hard-cooked egg. Happy hour $7
Abe Fisher, Philadelphia PA
This tasted great and was really fun to eat with the potato chips. The dish was really just borscht beets made to look like a plate of tartare – genius! And delicious! And my bartender/server rocked!

Raw and marinated bass – Abe Fisher
Avocado cream cheese, pomegranate-caraway vinaigrette. Happy hour $7
Abe Fisher, Philadelphia PA
Mmm, this was SO good! I loved the bass both ways and they were prepared perfectly. The vinaigrette tasted great and wasn’t overpowering as to cover up the flavor of the bass. The service here was also fabulous (unlike some restaurants like a.kitchen).

Maryland crab roll – The Source
Masago, avocado. Happy hour 3 food items for $22

This was good. I liked the larger chunks of picked crab and that it wasn’t over dressed. The sushi rice was a little dry though.

Dynamite roll – The Source

The Source, Washington DC
I didn’t really like this roll. It was gummy, soggy, and hard all at once. I liked the sauces, but the scallop was completely lost.

Yellowtail sashimi – The Source
Pickled jalapeno, citrus ponzu. Happy hour 3 food items for $22
The Source, Washington DC
This is a pretty good appetizer! You can choose any 3 items on their lounge menu for twenty two bucks. Count me in! This sashimi was ok. I question the freshness of the fish. It didn’t taste old or bad, but it also didn’t taste super fresh.
