    So it’s been like two years since last i’ve gone to Sammy’s, but this time they’ll be a little twist. You might remember some of these pics of the decor from my previous sammy post. As lighting was a total bitch, most of these pics didn’t come out so great, so please bear with me.

    first up, broiled scallops. these were ok, i think i’m having a fried food overload of late though…

    they were actually really good with lemon and the tater sauce…

    Garrick also ordered some snow crab legs steamed…

    which i felt was way better than the broiled one…these were really freaking good…

    great company and great meal, though we all agree that this will probably be the last time we will order the crab feast, as we know what we like now and more likely will want it steamed rather than broiled. but in the end it was a great night.
