Little Fish BYOB (Philly)

For the first night of our "Philly Tourist" weekend, Jay and Ken met Karin and George at Little Fish, 6th and Fitzwater Streets, Philadelphia (267-455-0172), on Friday, December 6, 2019, for a wonderful dinner. Our reservations were for 5:30pm. We arrived early and were promptly seated.

Oysters

Of course, Jay and George both wanted oysters. George ordered 3 West Coast; Jay ordered 2 East Coast/2 West Coast. Barnstabe (MA) came with shallots and sherry vinegar; Royal Miyagi (WA) came with lime, cucumber, and white soy. Both were fresh and delicious!

First Course

The Octopus came with lotus root, celery, cilantro, peanuts and chili. Just the right amount of heat and it was cooked to perfection! Wow!

The Scallops came with brussel sprouts, herb, peanuts, and lime. Sweet pillows of heaven!

Second Course

Karin and George split the Halibut; Jay enjoyed her own. With yukon, kale, shellfish cream, this was perfectly cooked.

Ken enjoyed the bronzino, with eggplant, caper, leek, pine nuts and sherry.

We were treated to olive oil cake and cinnamon ice cream. A wonderful ending to a delicious meal.

Wines enjoyed:

It was a unique experience in that we could see our food being cooked. The aromas from the open kitchen made us appreciate our meal even more.
