Hazelnut, cherry tomato, salsa verde, pesto and shallots. Family style supper $46 per person
Staple and Fancy, Seattle WA
This tasted good, but I wasn’t a fan of the fish texture. It was an odd combination of flaky and mushy. I loved the sauces and garnishes though, hehe.
Eye Benches III, Louise Bourgeois, black Zimbabwe granite, Olympic Sculpture Park.
Broccolini, baby carrots, harcot vert, fennel, and herbed tartar. $26
Lot 7, San Francisco CA
Wow, that herbed tartar sauce was amazing! And all the vegetables on the plate were beautifully cooked. The salmon, however, was a tad over-done for my taste.

This was SO simple and delicious! I wish there were more clams though since they were really juicy and flavorful, hehe.

Artichoke, cauliflower, roasted potatoes, muhammara. $25
Lot 7, San Francisco CA
This was delicious! The tuna was beautiful and the vegetables were perfectly cooked too. I’ve never had muhammara before, but this condiment was SO tasty! I guess it’s traditionally made from aleppo peppers, ground walnuts, breadcrumbs, and olive oil and can have additional ingredients. Noms!
Antique wall fixture, US Customhouse, Battery Street. Not really sure what this was used for, hehe.
With roasted peppers and micro greens. Family style supper $46 per person
Staple and Fancy, Seattle WA
Mmm, SO good! I remember hearing that there’s some kind of controversy with escolar, I think because they’re often mislabeled or something. Anyway, this was delicious whatever it was, lol!

Merluza En Salsa Verde: sea bass, cockles, salsa verde. Summer prix-fixe menu $38
Tinto, Palm Springs CA
The sea bass had a light and fluffy texture but it was definitely on the salty side. The cockles were ok but the sauce was too starchy and pretty much set while we were eating, gross! They didn’t have much flavor, but then my tastebuds were fried from the salty sea bass.
Moules Basquaise: mussels, chorizo, sauce basquaise, french fries.
I wasn’t expecting this. The mussels were shell-less, and they tasted really sour especially when paired with the salty fries. Part of the fun was lost because there were no shells to dig through. And the sauce tasted suspiciously like chili – odd.
Jumbo Rocks campground, Joshua Tree National Park.
Six pack served with cocktail sauce. Happy hour $5
Anthony’s HomePort, Seattle WA
I don’t get people who are afraid to get dirty while eating. I don’t mind peeling my own prawns, cracking my own crab, sucking shrimp heads, whatever it takes to get my delicious food! I think it’s more fun when you get a little dirty while eating. That’s why I’m not afraid of eating ribs or whole crawfish in groups. But to each his own.
Happy hour casualty! This wasp didn’t make it. 🙂

The presentation is definitely more basic this time around.
