Splash Seafood Bar & Grill serves up fresh seafood daily. (Photo courtesy of Splash) The Final Days of Splash's November Menu Still stuffed from yesterday's Thanksgiving meal? You might want to find some extra room. Splash Seafood Bar & Grill's November menu is ending in just a couple of days, and it's a lineup that you won't want to miss.
Start things off with either the hamachi or pumpkin salad. The four main features include lobster Bolognese (Maine lobster, roasted local tomatoes and basil, orecchiette pasta) and sea beam (whole, char-grilled, in pomegranate almond brown butter). Each menu item has an optional wine pairing. Rounding things off in sweet
fashion is the special cocktail Green Ocelot (green chartreuse, vodka, green tea, sweet lime).
Splash will be open from 5 to 10 p.m. today and tomorrow.
