Otter’s on
the Water
We were simply
driving around this afternoon, running errands, when Carla suggested that we
get lunch somewhere, rather than just go home. That’s how it starts. Ned’s?
Corner Sushi? Maybe Patty’s? We live in The Shores, so that’s our turf. “Let’s
go to Black Molly! They have that dish you like with angel hair and a crab cake.”
I suggested.
That’s when
we saw the “Otter’s” sign… and we knew where we were going. Pulled a U-turn,
headed East, toward the water. I was happy to see that the parking lot was
confined to the parking lot, not stretched out along the access road. There
were even a few spaces open. Sweet!
Yup, we
walked right in and got a perfect seat.
Fast forward…a
waitress we’ve seen before, who really knows her stuff, greeted us immediately.
Carla got soup of the day, a Lobster Bisque. Creamy? Lobster forward? Thick,
fresh, and decadent? Check, check, and check. She loved it. Her only issue was that it didn’t;
have enough lobster chunks in it. I pointed out the fact that she complains
that every meal she gets, out or at home, doesn’t have enough lobster chunks in
it, according to her. Yesterday I had to tell her that it’s not normal for her ice
cream to come with lobster chunks.
She admitted
her Bisque was delicious.
Then I
insisted that she get the Lobster Roll. Like me, it’s huge, hot, and hunky.
(OK, I’m none of those things but this is my review, so give me a little slack
here!)
Prime rib for
me with lots of horsey sauce, Smashed potatoes. Collard greens that had been
cooked forever with some bacon or fat back, exactly as they should be.
A tall draft
Sierra Nevada with a Tito’s neat. Hey, I went to the gym this morning and I’ve
done all my chores, so allowed.
Carla looked
hot in her cool overalls, still knocking me out 45 years after she first walked
into the newspaper where I worked, looking for a job.
Cozy table
against a wall so the assassins couldn’t get to me without risking a fork to
the eyeball…
Bright &
open inside, expansive out, lightly salted air. Attentive waitress.
Spread out
in front of us… lobster, prime rib, a tall hops product ….and a huge serving of
gratitude…
Otters was
freaking awesome this afternoon.
