Little Tuna (Seafood)

Fast becoming one of our favorites, we arrived about 15 minutes late for our 6:00 PM, due to the heavy volume of traffic. Since Jay called to let them know, they held the reservation. But we also felt a bit rushed since it was Restaurant Week and we had a Groupon. We went with the regular menu.

We enjoyed 2 orders of the delicious bread:

For appetizers, Jay enjoyed the James River (VA) oysters, which she devoured:

Ken had the bacon wrapped shrimp, which he proclaimed was the best he EVER had:

For entrees:

Ken enjoyed the whole trout stuffed with crabmeat and broccoli rabe (special), with green and yellow squash, and rice.

Jay found the grouper quite tasty, but realizes that she prefers a more heartier fish. The sweet potato mash belonged in a pie. Yummy!

We shared the bananas fosters bread pudding, which came with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. After we left, we realized that we should have had another order. So delicious! Have to tell Ken's mom to make the bread pudding. Very impressive. Gone in less than 5 minutes!

Wines enjoyed:

Don't forget to check out the Market attached to the restaurant. We would recommend a larger restaurant, so that people don't feel rushed enjoying the meal. Hopefully, the Groupon and Restaurant Week promotions will help them know that a larger space is needed.

Siri's Thai French

We visited Siri's Thai French on Saturday, October 19, 2013. Still one of our favorites. Everything was delicious!

Appetizers:

Crispy prawn rolls (special) - pretty good, but doesn't compare to Bhan Thai in Mount Laurel.

Char-grilled calamari salad

Entrees:

Seafood medley over cellophane noodles (special) with lobster tails, salmon, shrimp and scallops.

Venison tenderloin with scalloped potatoes, served medium rare (melts in your mouth!)

6th Annual Wine Tasting Party Was a Success!

Although there weren't many attendees, a good time was had by all on Saturday, October 12, 2013!

Top Notch

We visited Top Notch, 20 South Main Street, Medford, on Friday, August 23, 2013, because Jay didn't feel like cooking. We called 1/2 hour before our anticipated arrival to make reservations.

This is becoming a favorite, especially since it's so close.

We were greeted by Courtney, who had a pleasant personality.

Warm bread and oil was brought to the table. Very tasty.

Appetizers enjoyed:
Jay had the Bourbon glazed shrimp and cheese grits special. Delicious and the right portion size. The grits were nice and creamy. This item is going to be added to the Fall menu, it's that good.

Ken had the prosciutto wrapped shrimp, which he found very tasty.

Entrees:
Jay devoured the pan seared sea scallops. The scallops were perfectly tender and flavorful. The crispy onions added a nice touch.

Ken enjoyed the shrimp and lobster risotto, with large shrimp and lobster claw meat.

Everything was delicious. Nice ending to the work week.

The Little Tuna (Seafood)

Since we hadn't been out in a while, and Jay wanted to try something different, we decided on The Little Tuna, 141 Kings Highway East, Haddonfield, on Saturday, July 20, 2013. This is the seafood restaurant for which Ken has been searching!

We were able to secure a 7 PM reservation. When we arrived, we were promptly seated.

Our server, Maria, introduced herself and welcomed us to the restaurant. The warm bread was good.

Appetizers enjoyed:

Ken was quite happy with the BBQ Bacon Wrapped Jumbo Shrimp served with sauteed spinach.

Jay thoroughly enjoyed the sesame encrusted tuna plate (rare - yum!) which came with a wasabi sauce and a sesame/ginger sauce. Delish!

Entrees:

Jay requested the almond crusted scallops, with strawberry balsamic vinaigrette, as an entree. The appetizer portion comes with 4; the entree portion came with 6. She ended up giving 2 to Ken anyway. The sweet potato mash tasted like sweet potato pie. So good. It also came with a side of broccoli and carrots.

Ken was pleased with the Jumbo Lump crab cakes, which came with carrots and broccoli, and garlic mash.

Too full for dessert, but next time we'll have the Bananas Foster bread pudding.

We'll be back, because there is lots more on the menu that we want to try. Jay wants to compare their oysters with Kunkel's. Nice ambiance.

Note: There's also a nice market attached that sells fish and other goodies. If something is not on the menu, but in the market, you can request it.
