Is it anything like sugar toads? Never - btw, the only time I've seen Sugar Toads in DC (which isn't definitive by any means) was at Kinship last Spring.

Tweaked Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Yeah, the Dabney has them on the menu regularly. And they are really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranklinDubya Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Dabney has them on the menu fairly often and to echo Tweaked I thought they were delicious. Definitely recommended when going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poivrot Farci Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 We had fried sugar toads at Eat the Rich. The sugar toads and sea robins (gurnard family) are similar to monkfish in that they don't have much in the way of pin-bones or ribs, just a cartilage spine, but the sugar toads taste more like monkfish than the sea robins do. Sugar toads have endearing eyes and the sea robins make croaking/barking noises so I am content to let them go, but the latter is a delicious bouillabaisse staple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
