I live Just outside of Gig Harbor perched on a hill above the Burley Lagoon in Wauna/Purdy and I love it. I love the smell of the fresh salt water air. I love being able to look out my window to see if the tide is in or out. I love the sea-level drive along the Purdy Spit in the morning that exclaims the weather conditions, whatever they may be that day...
And as of this last weekend, I love one more thing about Purdy - The guy on the corner selling fresh seafood. I've seen him there for a while now but never stopped to look until last Saturday. I'm not sure why, but something compelled me to check it out. I'm glad I did because now I feel like I have the inside scoop on fresh seafood. I "know a guy" as they would say. And his name is Steve.
Steve happily told me what he had on hand. And when he got to the part about live Puget Sound dungeness crab, I was sold. We walked over to the big tanks and picked out a feisty two and a half pounder. "I've never cooked a live crab before", I confessed. Not a problem. He told me what to do. I trusted him and did it. It tasted awesome.
So why am I writing about this? It's because I appreciate the local guy. I appreciate the hard work that he has put in to succeed as a small business person in these times. I appreciate the niche that he has found. And most of all I appreciate his quality product and the great service that he provides that adds a little extra sparkle to the Gig Harbor lifestyle.
Here's the scoop:
Wink's Seafood
253-225-3730
Located Just north of the Bridgeway Market at the Purdy Spit
