Sorry here are some more details about last night.
Tuna Crudo: served with crispy rice, pickled cabbage, chiles and aioli. Tuna was really fresh. Flavors worked well together. Nice acidity. Probably my favorite dish of the night.
Smoked Drun Crudo: Served with eggplant, basil, tomatoes and croutons. Drum was firm and a little chewy with good smoky flavor. Basil added a nice herby note and worked well. Ate a little more like a fish salad than a crudo but flavor was good. This was probably my least favorite dish of the night.
Fried Bread: 6 came to an order. Served piping hot out of the oil topped with sea salt. Texturally was a little denser than a beignet on the inside but was crunchier on the outside with a thicker crust. Seemed to be popular as the majority of tables had these. Nice way to start the meal.
Crab and Jalapeño Capellini: housemade pasta with a sauce of butter and crab fat topped with crab meat. Also had jalapeños, garlic, and green onion which added a little heat. Surprisingly large portion and plenty of crab meat. Great dish and was surprisingly light considering the ingredients. Probably my second favorite dish of the night.
Fish Sticks: 4 beer battered fried "fish sticks" using LA31. Fish was fried perfectly and crispy on the inside while remaining flaky on the inside. 4 came to an order served with housemade tartar sauce and lemon. Definitely worth a try and was a welcomed crunch to our meal besides the bread.
Brussel Sprouts with Chili Vinegar: Fried to the brink of being bitter but just perfect. Sauce was acidic, spicy, and slightly sweet. Probably one of the best brussel sprout dishes I've ever had at a restaurant.
Next time we will get the whole fish but wanted to try a number of smaller dishes this time.
