If you are craving the catch of the day that’s not Long John Silvers, you have to try Sedalia’s Oyster + Seafood – the new award-winning seafood restaurant nestled among the classic taquerias, bargain groceries, and pot shops near the Oklahoma State Fair stomping grounds.
The restaurant opened earlier this year to much fanfare and nautical jubilation, and ahoy matey, it was worth more than its weight in chum.
With the doors opening at 5 o’clock, my girlfriend and I were prompt and punctual for our reservations and were easily seated.
The actual menu, which changes daily, was a hand-written copy-shop job, and as we looked over it, I ran into my former high school English teacher. With pleasantries out of the way, we resumed our one-hour tour and ordered our first batch of victuals which, it seems, are more tapas-related in both size and presentation, as well as price.
We also ordered some drinks—my girlfriend had the Old Fashioned ($15.00) and I had the Beet Soda ($5.00), which I know sounds terrible but is actually very good and very beety.
