#61 - Gunnings green pepper rings




10/11/10
Yes, that really is fried green pepper rings dusted with powdered sugar. And, yes, it does taste as awful as you would think! Out of the whole order, we ate about 1 between the four of us. Sara, Tom, Eric (new to foodie outings, based on this, might be his one and only) and Heather. It was certainly an interesting way to "christen" Tom's new house. Ironic that Sara and Heather brought the gnarly fried food while Tom and Eric were WAY more civilized. We all enjoyed Eric's heirloom tomato, mozzarella stacks topped with a bit of jalapeno.
Gunning's, aside from the green pepper rings, is a place definitely worth going back to. It's a huge crab place and looks like fun. We still don't exactly understand how this fried horridness made the 100 things foodie list. It's certainly not making our list. It's Heather's bottom item, Sara is still sticking with the softshell crab sandwich as the worst.

  2. The picture just doesn't do it justice, does it? Still fun night. Only sorry that is our memory from it! But we certainly can't forget it! :)
