Sometimes you just happen upon good things. Traveling
along US 17, through South Carolina low country, Angie had her heart set on
seafood from a local business. After a long drive, and false starts, we finally
discovered Fishnet Seafood on Johns Island, located in a refurbished gas
station. A good sign was that several cars were parked outside and a big sign
on the front door demanded a mask for service. With the omicron variant raging
across the country, we were trying to be careful.
Once inside we were warmly greeted, surveyed the raw
seafood, and found the menu from which we could order a meal. Angie equivocated
over several items, while I quickly settled on the founder filet, served on
white bread, and a side of red rice, a traditional low-country side dish. Angie
finally decided on the six-piece fish dinner with green beans. What she did not
realize was that it would be six whole pieces of fish. For two dollars more,
she easily got four times the amount of fish. While we could never eat that
much, I was not about to throw it away in their garbage. The women working in
the kitchen were far too nice, and the fish was excellent. I did not want to
seem ungrateful for anything.
