How beautiful that you could treat her to a fabulous meal, and could spend meaningful time with her on one of her last days on earth.
Again, not true. Most good locally owned restaurants avoid Sysco, etc. because of quality. Companies that only sell entrees you put in the microwave, the fryer, or boiling water, YUCK. They buy Seafood , Meats, and Vegetables from high quality distributors in Jessup, MD.
That certainly was the case when I owned my restaurant (Swanns) back in the mid-90s. Evans was still open back then, as was Oakwood Lodge, and we bought a lot of our meat, seafood etc from the same suppliers. We all bought a fair amount of seafood locally, of course.
Once you get to know Joe the scale doesn't stop at 10 anymore. I never do that when eating-in during a workday but I've done some take-out orders that really had me sweating. I'm not really a heat freak but there's just something special about legit Thai food.
A friend on FB says these work better than prescription decongestants.

Nothing wrong with Foxy Fish - far above average in my experience.

Hey man - if you don’t like it, you don’t like it. Far be it from me to change your mind. There aren’t a ton of good seafood places in southern MD, despite being surrounded by water. My theory for that is because there are too many cheapskates like you who live here and watermen decide to take their seafood up the road where they can fetch prices that are better aligned with the amount of labor that goes into getting fresh seafood to the restaurant table.
BUT, more importantly…. When you say it’s overpriced, that implies to me that you know how much items on their menu should cost. After all, one cannot logically make a conclusion that something is “over” priced unless there is a baseline for comparison.
So. How much should some various items at Foxy Fish cost?

They call me ... Sarcasmo
Food (and everything else) prices have absolutely gone through the roof over the past year, so "over priced" is probably still just enough for total expenses and a little profit. Case in point, a 40 lb jug of vegetable oil would run you about $23-$27 in 2020-21. That same jug now is $43-$47

Just tried Thai Inter today - it’s awesome!!!
Mrs and I agreed that it’s the best Thai we had in the whole of the DC region.
The menu is familiar, all the usual staples, plus many interesting additions. The flavors are right, and a little bit more intricate than most.
Veggies are fresh — broccoli in Pad Se Ew is bright green, all crown. Lots of meat and egg.
Of course, in these times the bill for my whole family was $100, but that’s what it is. (Drinks, appetizers, etc).

We have dined there. I really like their eggplant dish.
One of my favorite places. The pad normai is my favorite dish
