Food Coma

Yesterday was one of our favorite days, the Atlantic Antic street fair. We live on Atlantic, so this is a mile of food, etc. right out our door. You can see previous blog posts about it.

My youngest daughter and I like to walk the street around 10:30 while they are setting up.

The corn stands are always ready early. She’s amused at having roast corn for breakfast.

There’s music and kid’s stuff and vendors but for me this street fair is all about food. Things I ate include:

Spanish church food:

• Alcapurria
• Pernil
• Bacalaito

Local high end butcher shop:

• Beef Brisket
• Pulled Pork
• Fried Chicken (super good)

German stand had Bauernwurst

A Chilean street food stand was a big hit with this thing:

It’s a hot dog with guacamole, salsa, diced tomatoes and Merken seasoning. Yummy. There was an Italian lamb skewer stand that was awesome. And of course we had the standards, roast corn, sausage and peppers and the fried potato on a stick thing:

The local gumbo joint did a gator roast but I didn’t get any this year. They limited it to only being sold after 5:00 (the Antic runs from 12 – 6) and we just weren’t near there at the right time. It looked impressive:

Finally, this stand has been there the last few years and this year it was literally right in front of our place, the first thing we saw as we walked out the door:

These are Japanese octopus balls, but for the record, I did not eat Karls Balls…
