Floataway Cafe

It's been awhile since I have been back here but I was going full auto on some bitch ass zombies down the street and I worked up an appetite. I have always enjoyed the dishes I have eaten here. I think this is one of the most underrated restaurant in this town. Let's see if that still holds water since the last time I came here.

The service is always great here, they know their shit and they don't get all up in your face. They let you and your fellow diners eat in peace and enjoy your feast... Speaking of feast, check this shit out.

Wood grilled octopus, cannellini beans, mantequilla olives, salumi, orange. This was nice, real nice, this dish actually gives you a good amount, enough to share with others at the table unlike most other places that gives you two measly thin tentacles.

Piccolo fritto - young squid, georgia white shrimp, green tomato, broccoli, lemon. This was totally addictive, you just keep eating and eating. So good.

Housemade garlic sausage, french green lentils. Look at the girth of this unit. Juicy and toothy but don't use too much teeth. You can't have a wiener without balls...

Gulf blue crab fritter, pepperonata. Giant ball full of crabs... That's my kinda balls.

Pan roasted moulard duck breast, anson mills farro, almonds, persimmons. One look and you know it's gonna be good. And it was. Gone in 2 minutes.

Wood grilled hanger steak, pommes frites. Perfect medium rare and a stack of kickass frites. They were so good my buddy ordered another bowl of frites.

Potato gnocchi, brown butter chicken sugo, prunes, madeira. These pillowy puffs were softer than that chubby Charmin bear. Just delicious.

Brussels sprouts. Gotta have your veggies. Yeah, they were good.

Wood grilled niman ranch pork porterhouse, woodland gardens broccoli rabe, cranberry mostarda. Not the best looking dish but close your eyes and take a bite and it becomes Kate Upton. She wishes she had a rack like this.

Floataway did it again... Made the pouch happy again and not many places in this town does. I need to come here more.

Burp.
