Unbeknownst to me, the market was only open and the restaurant would not be serving food until 11 am...
which prompted us to get coffee and kill time first before coming back here.
Here is a photo of the market display cases before we left...
Look at dem skrimps!
Aaaand...two hours later, we were back. First ones seated. By the time we left, the place was almost full. The intensely purple flowers? They were real!
Crab cakes:
Real crab of course, not that Krab Krap. Size was smaller but the quality was excellent.
Onions rings - great batter. I liked that the rings were mostly of a uniform size.
Tuna sandwich for Bert, lobster roll for TC and Manila clams with white wine sauce, garlic and butter for me.
Chock full of lobster goodness!
One of the freshest tuna sandwiches ever he said.
Loved my clams but a few did have sand.
Ordered some fish chowder as an afterthought. Glad we did. This was so good. Very meaty and full of vegetables as well.
A great meal for my husband on Father's Day...

The other donut shop was not too far away so that would be our next stop...
