Harry's Seafood Bar & Grill

Brian and I had a short amount of time to spend together so we decided to hit up an old favorite: Harry's. We have had our good and bad moments with their menu but the good always ends up bringing us back. We enjoyed our food for the most part...until Brian made a lethal mistake. Yes, it was deadly.

 fresh baked bread and garlic butter-- perfect every time. Extra butter please!
shrimp fondeaux-- very tasty! This is one of our favorites. 
Cesar salad--  The salad was pretty decent. Here's where Brian went wrong: first he ordered the dinner salad instead of just a side salad. That's a $4 difference. Ouch. Next, the poor man, grabbed the salt shaker (it does look just like the pepper, I'll give him that) and proceeded to grind salt all over his giant $8 salad while talking to me about his day. He didn't realize it until he had a nice white layer of freshly ground salt all over the plate. There's no fixing that. He tried. My poor sweet husband. Death by salt.
Oreo beignet-- It felt wrong visiting a place with deep fried Oreos and NOT ordering it. Right? That would just be a crime. So, we decided to be a little crazy. Brian deemed it "deep fried OreNOS". It was supposed to be an oreo wrapped in a beignet with a vanilla sauce. It tasted like a terrible old doughnut swimming in a banana cream sauce. What did you do to the vanilla to make it taste like banana?! Bleh.
