I'm trying to detox from coffee....I don't like mornings right now.
So I've been hearing Joe's Crab Shack swallowed nasty pills and has been refusing to spit them out for months, but when your twin asks you to go there how could you say no? So last night I tried Lubbock's Joe's Crab Shack and although I don't regret the decision I wouldn't want to spend my money again there anytime soon. The alcohol noms were delicious, including the Titanic Tea and the Berry Red sangria, but the Hurricane tasted like cough syrup with alcohol. The garlic clams, my choice, weren't bad but the sauce didn't really stick to the clams at all so they really needed a dipping sauce and they don't come with one so I dipped them in the honey mustard sauce of a fellow eater and that was delicious. Otherwise their crab just tastes...kind of watery and a bit like stringy plastic faking being crab, but I might be a fish snob.
So Joe's is a thing to do but I think there are better places to bang out your buck. The atmosphere is still great, the service is still good, but the food has fallen under the table.
Tonight there are two things happening by the Texas Tech University. At eight the Theatre and Dance department is putting on a show in the Creative Movement Studio from tonight until tomorrow night. There's also a movie called Papillon showing at the Texas Tech museum from 2-4:30.
