Frequent visitors to The Squid have likely caught on that my wife and I are big fans of the bivalves. There were several options on the menu at Frankie's. We went with roasted oysters and a clam dish for our starters, then split a wiener schnitzel for our entree. I'd say I liked the oysters best.
Everything was fine. I wouldn't say anything was spectacular but it was a nice meal. I would go again and maybe try a more adventurous entree next time.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteThanks for this great suggestion, I love shellfish too! Here in Portugal they're very good quality and there are specialised restaurants!
Have a great week! Hugs
My dreams of Portugal involve vinho verde and great seafood. Someday.
DeleteIt looks like an interesting restaurant. While it might not have been spectacular, the food is presented nicely. Growing up near the coast, I have eaten more than my share of bivalves.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing wrong with the food. My own order could have been more adventurous.
DeleteYou know what's funny? I grew up in Maryland - famed for its seafood, especially crabs, of course. Yet, I didn't learn to love it until I left. Part of it is my parents' lack of interest in shellfish but it was more my own squeamishness. Now, I need to make up for lost time.
