Malibu|Neptune's Net '12

If you've been to Malibu, and you like seafood, but you haven't been to Neptune's Net, then clearly you haven't got it together. Neptune's Net is basically a seafood-shack-on-the-beach straight from a film. Everything from the retro sign, to the bikers loitering outside... it's a real scene. You order fresh, steamed seafood from one end, and greasy, deep fried eats from another. You sit on communal benches and stare across the PCH to the beach and Pacific Ocean - v. nice.

I was in California end of December/early January, and got to Neptune's Net Jan 2. We had a great feast, I can still taste the super buttery steamed shrimp, ceviche, clam chowder and pile of deep fried sea creatures now. Let me visually reflect...

Fresh

The need for Fresh hit me suddenly and sharply, almost as soon as I got to the Spandina streetcar stop. I got a small pang in my stomach, and then I heard a little voice speak to me "Sweet Potato fries... Peanut sauce...". I didn't even bother to fight that little voice, it would have been useless. 


Once it had been decided that Fresh was what's for dinner, I gave my BFFL (and FDDFL - Fresh Dinner Date For Life) a call to see if she was interested. She said no, she had to go somewhere... I knew this already, but thought that maybe I could probe her own little voice into coaxing her into a Fresh date. 


Anyways, I made my way to a completely jam-packed Fresh On Bloor and ordered the following:



$3 Cup of Floretine Bean soup
$6 Sweet Potato fries
    + $1.50 Peanut Sauce
$10 Baby Energy on Soba noodles


After having my food given to me, I made my way home and made the awful mistake of munching on some sweet, sweet, sweet potato french fries. Causing me to want to curl up into ball and weep due to the overwhelming craving.


I finally got home and sat down with my food, only to look in a see possibly the world's biggest "Baby" Energy. I have this feeling that they accidentally gave me a full size, but maybe it's just the packaging.


In conclusion, my Fresh was great, as always.

Oh, and I also stopped by DavidsTea and picked up a Toasted Walnut to go!
