It's refreshing to see the little shop at the corner of Stantan and Aberdeen street - Beer and Fish. It's our second time here. We tried the beer battered fish last time. The batter was just right, crunchy, but crust not too thick. I can taste the stout in it. Fish wass flaky and moist. good to hear that it's from sustainable source.This time, we tried something different, fried chicken and shrimp jambalaya.

This time, we tried something different, fried chicken and shrimp jambalaya. Coming from texas, I really liked the jambalya, with a true cajun taste, with the right touch of cayenne peppers and paprika, just like mom's. It's a true homey comfort food for me. I wonder if they used the cajun spice that mom used. Though mom would probably cook it with crawfsh instead of shrimp and chicken. Chicken was tender, crunchy, and tasty too.
The butter lettuce wedges were really fresh, dressed with bacon tips. Freshness was the accent. We tried the crab cegg too. Lots of crabmeat. It's interesting that they topped it with egg and gravy, sort of egg benedict in disguise. Crabcake was soft, tsaty and worked well with the soft poached egg, though not the New England crabcake that I'm used to.
The peaty chocolate (boozy shake) was a pleasant surprise. Not too sweet, very chocolaty wiith crunchy ice. I sipped up the whoe jar (they serve their drinks in jars) so quicky that it didn't havec a chance to be in the picture.
All and all, it's a joint that I liked, too bad that it does not have a lot of seats for more people.
