After Janes chemo in Houston Thursday, we headed to Galveston. She was feeling pretty good so we had an early dinner (6:30) at Fisherman's Warf. Fried shrimp, Belgian fries, great slaw. We took leftovers to our condo in the Galvestonian and sit on the 11th floor over the beach watching the ships on the horizon going in the Houston ***** channel.
On Friday we went to Gaido's for late lunch and had grilled Red Snapper with a lump crabmeat cream sauce. With my vegi I had sauteed mushrooms. Jane had wonderful potatoes au gratin. The red snapper is amazing- it is more abundant than ever, thriving around the offshore drilling rigs--it is a deep water fish. A real counterpoint to the enviornmentalists.
We stopped at the docks and got 4# of shrimp (21-25 count) and 2# of grouper, fresh caught and filleted for us. When we got to the room I boiled the shrimp and made a red sauce.
Dinner was a shrimp salad for me with a purchased Louisiana Remoulade sauce, from the shrimp I boiled. Jane had her leftovers from lunch. Still delicious. I think red snapper is the best gulf fish, followed by fresh caught but rare red fish (red drum), and flounder. A Broken Spur (Bounty Hunter brand) sauvignon blanc was perfect. Janes eating has changed --she can't eat as late and tires at the end of the day.
This morning we had bacon lettuce and tomato sandwiches (I added caramalized onions to mine). This afternoon we are eating at a little Greek place on the seawall. Boiled shrimp and leftovers tonight. The grouper is for tomorrow.
Great trip--Jane's tumor is shrinking.
