Lunch today with the boys at Seafood Cove # 1 in Westminister. Have not been out for awhile, so today is a treat. Restaurant was packed today because of Christmas. Watched them move loads of lobsters around in the tanks. Getting the oldest ones on top. Did not see one lobster that was less than 3 lbs. At $32 a pound. Some were weighing in at over 6 lbs. Front door was open so I could see the reflection of outside in the tanks. Some person got hit by a car crossing the street. Could see all the emergency personnel doing their job. Interesting lunch today. Not the normal.
Started off with the spicy sour soup. A bit more spicy than usual. Different cook.
We ended up with a plate of Pea Shoots. Henry wanted long beans but for some reason they were out of them along with a couple other green vegetables.
Also ordered the Salt and Pepper Fried Fish Filet and Pork Chops Peking Style. Both were very good today.
Wines today were all excellent. Tis the season. A 1999 La Pousse d'Or, Corton Bressandes, Grand Cru, Pinot Noir. 2015 Roar Pisoni Vineyard, Pinot Noir and a 2006 Clos Pepe Estate, Sta Rita Hills, Pinot Noir. All very enjoyable.
