Ahh the South... So much good fried food available. But what if you want something a little lighter? Like maybe seafood? Do you tuck your tail between your legs and wimper? No, you go to Fishmongers in Durham, NC.
Only a short drive from the Marriott Civic Center and across the street from the main block of Brightleaf Square, this place has a long list of good beer and a fresh selection of fish and sides. The picture is the barbecued shrimp, but any of the fish selections "blackened" are winners too. Their soups are great for lunch and it's a Seattlites dream in the deep-fried south to find a decent piece of fish. Get the more southern-style sides (butter beans are amazing if they have them) and ask for a reccomendation for what's the freshest.
The Place: Fishmongers, W. Main St. Durham, NC in the Brightleaf Square area
The Food: Fresh fish, southern-style side dishes, long beer list
The Price: The fish is around $15-20 an entree, but many options are closer to the $5-15 range.
