Our partner in the Pacific Coast Center for Culinary Arts, Chef Rob Pounding, owns a restaurant in Lincoln City – The Blackfish Café. It’s always a treat to dine there, so I jumped at the chance when an old friend asked me to lunch last week. I’m always amazed at how the restaurant stands out in Lincoln City. The design is very Coastal without being Beachy, and I love it!
When I first started this job, I was in contact with Chef Pounding (Poundinski) a TON. We met weekly about objectives and goals for the Culinary Center, but being fare minded people, these meetings always made their way onto the subject of awesome food. He grilled me about my favorite dish at the Blackfish, and of course mentioned a few menu items that I “had to try”. On this list was a burger, coleslaw, and fish and chips. I hadn’t tried any one of these items yet because I desperately wanted to try specials, and unique pastas or salads instead with the mindset – “I can get a burger anywhere”.
~FALSE~
I can’t get THAT burger anywhere. It was perfect. I encourage you to give the burger at the Blackfish a whirl… you’ll be happy you did!
