I love it here for the seafood. One of my favorite seafood places is on the wharf in Seattle. They cover your table with butcher paper and litterally DUMP a giant bowl of seafood, corn, and potatoes out for you to enjoy. You are given a mallet, a wooden cutting board, melted butter, and an endless supply of sour dough bread to accompany it.

Check it out if you like... The Crab Pot


Sounds like a clam bake. That is my kind of place. I think I need to make a trip to Seattle

I got a new crockpot! :cheer: Tis a six-quart oval with a clickety dial! Now I can do my New England boiled dinners with bigger cuts of meat, and get all the red taters in at once! :cheer:

I got two of the right chickens for bone broth too. :cheesy:

ahk 12-08-2012 03:37 PM

I'm stuffed. :blink:

I enjoyed a catfish po'boy w/ crunchy slaw and pickles w/ hot sauce.
&
I enjoyed a burger w/ caramelized onions, a balsamic rosemary reduction, with bleu cheese burger.
&
I enjoyed a BBQ pork slider with tangy sauce on an Hawaiian roll
&
I enjoyed a crepe filled with lemon butter and powdered sugar
&
I enjoyed a poached pear with bleu cheese ice cream and candied walnuts
& lastly
I enjoyed a eggnog ice cream.

Of course, I didn't eat all of this by myself, but myself and 2 others did-- we shared and talked, and laughed.

Good times.

Made some crimini mushroom broccoli and chicken over pasta with rosemary philly cheese sauce.

Cut chicken into bits size pieces
slice mushrooms and saute in worshishire, butter and pickapeppah.
pan sear chicken add broccoli after all sides light brown. Make sure broccoli is covered in EVOO, and add mushrooms, philly cream cheese n rosemary. Bring to low boil, then add some white wine (or pasta water). Add cooked pasta and stir.

Earlier I mentioned a Mussel dish that was my Dad's favorite. Here is the recipe if you want to make this at home:

Mussels in Garlic Sauce

2lbs Fresh Mussels, soaked and cleaned (soak in cold water with a little corn meal to purge any sand)

6 Cloves of Garlic - Chopped

1 Large Fresh lemon or 2 small Lemons, juiced

1/2 Cup Dry White Wine or 1/4 Cup Rice Vinegar+1/4 Cup Water

2 T Butter

2T Olive Oil (Blended Olive Oil)

Sea Salt & Fresh ground Black Pepper

Tabasco

Directions:

In a large saute' pan or 6-8Qt pot, heat Olive oil over medium heat, and saute chopped garlic for one minute. Add mussels, Wine or Vinegar/Water mix, Lemon Juice, Butter and a few dashes of Tabasco. Simmer over medium heat with a lid on for 3 minutes. Remove lid and stir. Cover again and cook for 5 minutes. Remove lid and stir. Your mussels should now be open and cooked through. Toss in a pinch of Sea Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper.

Serve with garlic bread.

Yeild: 2 entree's or 4 appetizers

Sun, I did indeed have a feast.
About your recipe: Can you use baby clams, instead
of mussels? (truth be hold, I've never eaten a mussel)

Hi ahk,

Yes this simple saute will work for any shellfish. Shrimp as well though I would add a little water. The Mussels hold some water that release into the liquid. The Shrimp do not.

Add a half a chopped Jalepeno and jazz it up.

Y'all might wanna be a little more uniform than that; I've been known to chop into all size pieces in the same dish. :cheesy:

Nope, Sun, no broth yet. First I gotta eat the chicken, after all! :cheesy: Then we have to get the potato soup out of the old crockpot. The new crockpot will be for general cooking. The old crock will become my broth pot. *huge grin*

The PNW has awesome seafood!

Hiya Gemme!

I see that. I was only in Seattle briefly to catch a cruise ship and did not get to explore the local culture very much though I did get to Pikes Place Market. I look forward to getting up there sometime in the coming year.

Good Morning delicious people!

How is everyone doing today?

Ooh potato soup. How do you make yours?

Oh I see you have to eat the chicken first. Guess I was eager for some chicken stock so I would have pulled the chicken off the bones. Must be my lack of home cooked food that creates this visual urgency in my brain. Then I project that. Aye.

I think that I am coming down with a cold, so my craving for chicken soup just jumped about 90% which means there is still time to fight this. If I get truly sick, I want nothing to do with food of any sort.

My auntie makes a nummy corn chowdah with lots of taters in it...I HAVE to get the recipe. I love love love soup...especially in the winter. And chowdah is a meal in itself :) When I DO get the recipe I shall post it for the masses :) I even eat it even though it's flavored with ham :| And I don't eat pork....yes it's that good... :)

I am oven baking the blue and gold bacon we buy from the FFA kid up the street. I have my homemade sweet potato pancake mix ready for the grill and the keurig is ready to brew Red a nice cup of coffee when she wakes up. I love the smell of breakfast and I love cooking for Red.

Love some good chowdah. When I lived in Provincetown there was a battle for who made the best clam chowdah. They throwdown up there, that is for sure. A coworker of mine makes a killer corn chowdah and I believe that it is the combination of bacon and diced red pepper that kicks it over the flavor zone into something special. Of course I add Tabasco to this and like it even better.
