Seafood and Southern Cookin'

What a week, weather-wise. How does it go from 90s to 60s in three days?

On the super hot Wednesday, Tai and I go to Tony's Clam Shop on Wollaston for dinner. I'm not sure if it was just an off day, or if quality has really gone down. But the best thing about dinner was the pina colada. Followed by the fries.

My lobster roll and Tai's clam roll in the back - the lobster just wasn't great. I'm sad. And still on the hunt for a better lobster roll.

Pretty good pina colada - especially on such a hot day.

Pretty disappointing dinner. Not that it was bad. But it wasn't great either. Not sure we'll be back to Tony's.

Saturday, Tai and I went to Assembly Row for dinner at Southern Kin Cookhouse. And where Tai eventually killed the TSX's front bumper.

Southern Kin is hip but relaxed, with country music that is a touch too loud. But with a super-fast kitchen and very efficient service.

Bayou tacos - tiny. But really great flavors. And now I can say I've eaten gator tail.

Half a chicken and waffles plate - I really do love and appreciate when restaurants split plates for you when you're sharing. And I only managed half of this portion. The chicken was great - not dry, crispy, well-seasoned. The waffle was also really good.

Key lime pie - I'd pass. Too sugary.



















Make reservations if you're going during peak dining hours. But definitely worth a trip.
