Chincoteague (and one other type) Oysters - I recently started eating oysters, and these were wonderful. The waitress was really knowledgeable and described them quite accurately: tastes like the sea, not as salty as some others on the menu, medium to large in size. I didn't even want to use too much cocktail sauce because I enjoyed discovering these new flavors. Texture and consistency was lovely - slid right down!
Scallops - roasted brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, bacon pieces - I'll start with the one criticism: There were only 4 scallops, and they were tiny! However, this criticism easily turns into a compliment because I wanted more. Every bite on my plate was extremely flavorful and exceptionally prepared. The scallops neared a sweet, tangy, BBQ flavor (probably due to the bacon pieces I ate with them), but also had their own unique taste. The scallops themselves, although small in size, were perfectly cooked: soft and whole (not chewy or stringy). I wasn't expecting the side dishes to be as good as they were (I never do), but the sweet potatoes were incredibly - and naturally - sweet (with a little help from the delicious glazed sauce).
