\"Shrimp<\/a>We celebrated Fathers\u2019 Day at Tabella’s, a new farm-to-table restaurant in\u00a0Kemah, TX. The\u00a0Chef Link Livingston and Sous Chef Chris are providing delicious, locally sourced food\u00a0prepared exactly the way I like it\u2014simple, delicious, local, and healthy. The seafood is fresh from the Gulf and the chef shops at local farmers markets and other local sources for produce–it’s\u00a0very fresh and often organic.\u00a0 Using local, fresh produce\u00a0does lead to seasonal changes in the menu.<\/p>\n

We began our dinner with the Shrimp Diablo appetizer, tender, juicy fire-roasted Gulf shrimp wrapped in maple bacon with bell peppers, jalapeno cheese, and a tart-sweet glaze. We all<\/em>\u00a0loved the shrimp\u2014just the right combination of jalapeno, sauce, bacon and shrimp. The freshly made herbed bread was served with seasoned olive oil for dipping.<\/p>\n

\"Ribeye<\/a>

For entrees, my husband and son had the special 12 ounce ribeye steak (cooked exactly to order) My daughter and her friend had roast chicken with the vegetable medley plus a side of new potatoes. I chose the fish of the day\u2014fresh snapper from the Gulf\u2014cooked just right, still tender and delicate. All entrees were served with roasted corn-on-the-cob and a fresh vegetable medley of tomatoes, peppers, squash, and onions.\u00a0 My husband added asparagus as an extra side.<\/p>\n

Since this was a special occasion we also had dessert\u2014Bananas Foster, a perfect ending, a sweet and tasty combination of saut\u00e9ed bananas, cinnamon, dark rum, and vanilla ice cream. We shared the desserts, of course.<\/p>\n

We ate and enjoyed every bite of our dinner. I would certainly recommend Tabella\u2019s to anyone wanting delicious, locally sourced, and very fresh food.<\/p>\n
