For breakfast I cooked bacon, eggs and toast, and although I don’t usually cook, it turned out OK. Then we went to Le Cookery to see if they have anything we need. Randy is always looking for useful kitchen utensils that will fit into the RV. Today we didn’t find anything for the kitchen, but I may have found a new tea.
For lunch we went back to the Bluffton Oyster Restaurant for more raw oysters; May River oysters are the best! At Scott’s Meat Market we bought some really fresh beef and seafood.
Back at the RV park we got a few things done, and eventually it was time for dinner. We went to the Roastfish and Cornbread restaurant, which is pretty well-known on the Island. Seafood is their claim to fame so we ordered an appetizer of popcorn shrimp and the Port Royal Platter. The Platter comes with Tilapia, oysters, shrimp, scallops and crab cakes, with a side of greens. All the seafood was lightly breaded and fried, but the breading was well done and did not overpower the seafood. It was all good, the crab cakes were great, and the fried oysters tasted almost like morel mushrooms! They are also famous for their sweet potato cornbread; it did have good flavor, but it was a bit too dry. Also, for $21.95 we thought perhaps the dinner should be served on more dishes and less paper cups.
But all in all it was enjoyable, and we will probably go back and try some of their roasted dishes.
Every birthday needs cake, so on the way home we stopped at The Fresh Market, a really nice specialty store. There we got some great cake - not better than Randy could bake, but certainly better than I could. Chocolate is a great way to end a birthday . . . or any day!
