Seventy-ish degrees today. Just rolled in from a drive down to Nashville via the back roads, and lunch at the Caney Fork Fish Camp. Crab cakes and blackened Ahi Tuna!

I know we're inland, but that was some good eatin'!

And the TR8's 3.5, with newly jetted Holley was singing her song - flawless! Can't wait to drive her down to N.O. in a couple weeks!
 
You are a lucky man!

Here in Connecticut we got close to 70 also. But the backroads are covered with snow melt, and the drifts in front of TeeYah's shed are only beginning to melt.

Not *quite* spring yet.

Mickey, that does sound like a great meal, something like you'd find in "the City".
For those not from Louisiana, that's how New Orleans is called by locals "the City" everything else in Louisiana was just towns, back when.
Seems like the whole Southeast is having great Springtime weather at the present.
I think we'll be in the low 80's in the next hour or two.
Hope to meet you at Delgado, Mickey.
 
Mais, Cher, you know we gonna be 'dere!
 
You tink we can got dat BillTR6 to brought us some Boudin blanc from down de Bayou, cher ?

Wow, fish camps have come a long way since living in N. Carolina back in the 80's. All we had were fried catfish, hush puppies and slaw and gallons of sweet tea. Man that was heaven!

Just returned from MD and when I took my mom to dinner that is exactly what I had.

Well really, it wasn't Ahi but they called it that. Couldn't fool me.
 
Our crab cakes don't come close to a Chesapeake bay crab cake from let's say
Phillips Crab House

Probably because the crabs came from Louisiana.
When I used to inspect crab processing plants for the State, I observed that the vast majority of the top grade crabs were being shipped to Maryland.
 
OK, I love crab cakes and would like to try making them myself. Who's got a killer recipe?? BTW, my significant other HATES Worchestershire sauce, so I can't put that in them. :wall:
 
Not in the 60's and early 70's when I ate there.
