Today I needed to make a lovely trip to Urgent Care for yet another “gift” related to the collision which has been the reason why I needed surgery back in December and go to weekly PT appointments.
After spending a few hours waiting for results after tests were conducted, I was ready for some real food. 3 packages of saltine crackers , 3 Tylenol and 2 cups of ice water didn’t quite cut it as a gourmet meal.
Fish and chips sounded good so Ray and I headed to the restaurant where I had read nothing but rave reviews. Unfortunately, there was no open parking for several blocks so that plan was scrapped for another day. A quick search brought up The Fish Peddler so we went there.
The Fish Peddler has a huge parking lot and is located right on the water. Today was gorgeous so we opted to sit outside. Normally the breeze off the bay is cold even on nice days, but today was perfect.
After being seated, our server brought menus. I ordered a Mai Tai and Ray ordered lemonade. It was hard to make a decision with all of the interesting menu items. I was really torn between the rockfish tacos or stay with the fish and chips. I decided to stay with the fish and chips. Ray ordered the rockfish and requested it blackened when offered.
Our food came up quickly. It was hot and made to order. Everything was delicious, of course I had to taste the rockfish and it was awesome!!!
We don’t always get to take time to relax. It was so peaceful we sat and watched the people walking their dogs and the boats going into and out of the various marinas.
When Ray learned there was carrot cake on the dessert menu, it was a given!!! I debated the 7 layer chocolate cake, but opted out. I stole a couple of bites of the carrot cake and was lucky to not find a fork in the back of my hand.
Once we finished our meal, we walked out onto the walkway overlooking the water and read about the lumber mills which used to be there. Then our relaxing day was over and it was time to head home.
We will definitely return. Our meals were a little pricey but definitely worth it.
