An inside peek at the corn milk hushpuppies Wood roasted beets,pickled beet vinagrette, blue cheese and pine nuts - $6 Cornmeal crusted haddock, brussels sprouts, bacon, pepper jelly - $25. Fish & chips, beer battered haddock, malt vinegar aioli with shoestring fries- $20. The fish was huge, crispy and delicious. There wasn't a single fry left on my plate. I'm about to make a big statement. This is the best bread I've ever put in my mouth. The bread is the last thing I thought I'd be writing about, but it would be a pure injustice not to mention it's light, airy texture, salted incredibly. Fried clam roll, lemony mayo, kimchi vinegar, pickles - $9. One word: AMAZING. Soft bread, crunchy goodness and the peppers rock! Spicy Spanish octopus, saffron aioli, olive - $13. It was my first experience with octopus. It was spongy in texture and chewy. The taste I remember most is the flavor of pancetta. Seared yellowfin tuna, charred octopus, crispy potato salad, harissa - $28. Exposed brick and a weathered hostess station at the entryway.

Ahh, the blessed bread basket. It is the thing I look forward to most at Barbara Jean's. Caution: Sample each variety and take the rest to go! wpid-20120921_202217.jpg This is the she crab soup. It's cream based and filled with fresh, lump crab meat. I like to pepper mine heavily and sprinkle crushed saltines over the top. I took a friend who had never been to visit recently and upon getting his drink, he said, "Now that's a tea glass!" I recommend a half and half tea with a fat wedge of lemon. Barbara Jean's is known for their famous crab cakes. This is the crab cake and grilled shrimp over rice dinner with stewed tomatoes and broccoli & cheese casserole.
