Pulled Pork Croquettes With Jalapeño Jam

Oddly shaped unassuming little balls…

One bite in,  you’ll be taken with them.  They are absolutely chock full of tender pork and chunks of potato.  Red pepper pieces are scattered about for a little pop of color.  And, that jam!  Sweet and spicy, it’s the perfect burst of freshness to cut through the richness of the pork.

In a word, divine.

21st Amendment Brew Free or Die IPA sits in front,
Smuttynose Old Brown Dog hides in the back

Both were very nice with the croquettes, but the 21st Amendment was the clear winner with its rich touches of citrus, exotic floral-y fruit, equally balanced with fresh hoppy bitterness and smooth, bright finish.  We loved it and we’re eager for more.

Shrimp & Grits

Rich with jalapeño and cheese, these were some seriously good grits.  We were eager for a few more bites of tender greens to cut the richness.  But, would that stop us from ordering this again?  Never.

Shrimp?  Too many to count.

Coupled with an equally generous portion of sausage, this is a meal that requires a post-meal hike.

Salmon Cake Benedict With Dill Hollandaise

With perfectly poached eggs, every bite of that buttery whole wheat toast was put to good use.

Nothing fancy, it’s just a cozy place to linger.
