We had a Groupon for Joe's Seafood for a while, and it was about it expire. Lucky, we finally had a day that was nice enough to eat outside, so despite it being a Wednesday, we headed downtown for dinner.
Joe's Seafood was having a few complications. They were very unprepared for the "rush" (not much of one) they were experiencing. They were out of menus, quite a few menu items, cups, etc. It didn't phase or effect us much though, but the manager was super flustered. I think if he had held it together better, I would have felt more comfortable.
Anyway, Joe's Seafood has a great view.
Charlie was not a fan though. Just kidding. Charlie was mad he couldn't have his own cup of water. So, eventually, I gave in and let him. One second later he dumped it on his lap.
But it was fine, because then our food came and he was distracted.
We ordered the seafood lolipops to start. They are sort of like a crab cake/seafood dip in a ball deep-fried. I liked these a lot.
We also shared a two piece cod and chips. Their batter is very nice. Thin. And I could eat the fries all day. Best fries ever. The tartar sauce is also very nice. The coleslaw however, whomp-wha. It is dry, plain, and bland cabbage. Too bad we ordered an extra side of this instead of the wonderful fries.
Lastly, we each got a spicy fish taco. They messed up our order a little here, serving us only one instead of two. We went directly to the kitchen with this, and it was quickly rectified. But maybe too quickly, as the fish seemed raw. Is it supposed to be? The fish in the first taco also seemed kind of raw. I ate it anyways, even though I probably shouldn't have.
I like the food they serve, but for a glorified chippery, they are a bit over priced. This meal would have neared $40.
As we were dirving home, we noticed it was the first night of the Chinatown Night Market. Although the market was lame, we got dessert and produce.
We had a dozen mini-donuts to share. Love these! Charlie like them too, although it is a week later and every time he sits in the stroller, his butt still gets covered in sugar.
We also stopped to get some produce at our favorite market. Charlie kept trying to grab stuff off the shelves. As we were in line to pay, I noticed he had succeeded and was eating a Saturn peach. An elderly woman had stopped me at one point to talk about Waldorf salad, and I guess that is when he got it. Oh well, we have a baby thief--but we did pay for it and it was only 30 cents.
