Bookended by an independent movie theater and an art gallery in eclectic Burns Court, Owen’s Fish Camp is housed in a large cottage that looks as if it was transplanted directly from a fishing village in Maine. The back porch provides a large cozy garden complete with clusters of comfortable seating, twinkly lights and a sleepy cat curled up on a blanket. The menu consists of Southern-inspired sides and delicious seafood dishes but I enjoy the ‘jars’ offering boiled peanuts, fried dill pickles, fresh fish spread or, my personal favorite, Southern Chicken Liver Pate with Spicy Rhubarb Jam. The pate, made in house, is rich and earthy and delicious on its own eaten directly from the jar, but the rhubarb jam pairs nicely and the addition of jalapeno adds a background note of spice without overwhelming heat.
