Broccoli Anyone?
Well here we are starting our "girls week" and after getting the rental car I asked the gal at the counter where to go for some good seafood. She enthusiastically replied, "Red Lobster"! Well I let her go on and on about how great it was, especially those biscuits. We walked away and I said, "If that's the best seafood place in Virginia, we are in trouble!"
Fortunately, I have my trusty GPS and looked up local restaurants "seafood" and found many within less than 2 miles from the airport with "Marina" , Captain or Seafood in the restaurant name! We decided on one that was on the marina overlooking the local yachts - very family style and very busy for 1pm.
The menu was great, but there was one very unusual item that was all over the menu - broccoli. With each entree you had a choice of two vegetables unless you ordered broccoli which must be a delicacy here in Virginia because if you ordered it you could only get broccoli as a vegetable (it counted as two veg's.). A salad which only counted as one vegetable had broccoli (plenty of it) on the salad, and yet, you could still order another vegetable!
Have I confused you yet?
Look for more stories and photos from North Carolina and the Southern Shores in the coming days ahead!
