A few weeks ago, a pricey piece of computer software arrived to our office. We kindly informed the manufacturer that we don’t, in fact, review products of any kind.
Hey, the company’s representative said. Just keep it.
But that would be such a waste. So instead, we sold it on eBay for $300 and went out to dinner. Creativity: sometimes it feeds more than just the soul.
To accommodate our various dietary preferences (fish lover, food blogger, wine list snob, etc.) we headed to Brooklyn Fish Camp in Park Slope.

It was a beautiful night and we got to sit in the backyard, which is terribly quaint. I recommend it. I regret not photographing my drink of choice, a Sixpoint Righteous Rye Ale. It was probably one of the tastiest beers I’ve ever had. Brewed right here in Brooklyn. Surprise, surprise.
I was excited to see something I never tried before but enviously saw on the Food Network several times: conch.
Florida Conch Beignets with Key Lime Aioli:

The conch was kind of chewy and not that impressive. I’m convinced I need to try it in another form.

Main entree was a fish I don’t think I’ve ever had either.
Roasted California Sturgeon Filet with Carrot Puree and Ginger Beet Relish:

The veggies were a great addition, I practically licked my plate clean! The sturgeon reminded me of a bit tougher trout. I think it could’ve used a little more seasoning.
Dessert, however, was a perfect ending to this meal.
Warm Gingerbread with a Scoop of Vanilla Gelato and Whipped Cream:

The combo of cold and warm is always a hit with me. The whipped cream was a bit too much for this but hey, no one was forcing me to eat it.
Besides, a free dinner is always more delicious than one you pay for. Thanks, computer software!

No, that was true to form, conch is pretty much always chew and unimpressive. Now, key lime aioli?!? Sounds fantastic.
I’d say that’s a pretty good trade! Would you believe Brooklyn Fish Camp has been on my “Get in my belly” List for like 3 years now? Pretty pathetic, but I intend to try it some day, seriously! Now that I’ve seen photographic evidence of the yumminess I’m even more motivated.
And I thought I was the senslibe one. Thanks for setting me straight.
I’m sad that the conch wasn’t very good. It sounds appealing…I think?
What a good use of the computer software. These things need to happen in grad school more often…
Haha what an awesome way to use a software program. That’s hilarious.
The food looks awesome even if it didn’t taste perfect. I want the Sturgeon!
That dessert looks amazing!! You can never have too much whipped cream
Key lime aioli? Now that sounds like an interesting flavor combo!
Yeah, it was actually really good! I usually don’t really like aioli because it’s too much but this was actually refreshing!
i dont know what i love more..the appetizer, entree or dessert. Girl I am jealous you ate that amazing food! I want to go to Key West and try conch..i bet the local stuff is amazing! good call on selling that computer software and using the money for food

lolo
Why don’t things like this ever happen to me… and props on thinking more like an entrepreneur than a journalism student.
