Cowboy Syd's Products
I make a lot of things for sale here on premise or on line. I use the same practices in my foods I make for sale or for you to enjoy while dinning in the restaurant as I have been doin my whole career. I grow what I can and the rest I get from my local farmers like Chip from Deerhaven Farm out in Surry Va and W.T. over on the eastern shore at the Picket Harbor Farm. Best dam tomatoes i've had since i lived in Mississippi. W.T. also has some dam good peaches to and for my other goods i get local and am in every bit of the production of my products so you can trust that Cowboy Syd logo when you see it in stores, markets or here at FishPig.
I had the great and rare honor of being in the line up of real good Chef by being nominated in 2016 Mid-Atlantic best chef semifinalist for James Beard Award of Excellence. I still use the same standard now as I always have to further garner you trust for my food products. I now sell my hams, sausages, coffee, hamburger relish and pimento cheese to mention a few here at FishPig and you can also get items here on this site so come and eat or order some for your home.
HEY LOOK @ THIS BELOW, NICE HONOR!!! This plate has my many house made foods like slow roasted and smoked pork belly, my sage and spice sausage, hamberger relish, Pono ham and pimento cheese to
We was just named one of the 12 best restaurants in Virginia by thrillist out of Washington D.C. and they just did the one food you need to eat in each of the states with the one thing to eat in Virginia was Stove's Pork O Rama, dam that's great. We will keep up the quality with my new direction as i have in the past at Stove. Here's the link, check it out: http://www.thrillist.com/eat/washington-dc/virginia-has-some-mighty-fine-restaurants-these-are-the-best-of-them
Farmers markets
I love goin to some of the local farm markets but some of the farms are better of course, on the eastern shore there’s Picket Harbor Farm whose opened to public on weekends and Deer Haven Farm in Suffolk. You can also go to the farm and craft market in ole town Portsmouth and you’ll see Chip there sellin he’s foods there as well so go hunting for some farms and get some great foods. There are good markets and farmer with their own stands out in pungo so pleanty of paces to get some good produce.
Below is an example of foods i do. The menu changes often and with supplies the way they are now we change sometimes twice a week on fish but also produce, meats just about everything is affected but I will always have some good food for you so come and see us.
my D-Lish and Not Hot Sauces
I've bottled up my world famous D-Lish Sauce for you. It's been in the making for about 25 years and it's fabulous and sophisticated. It has a lil Spice to it, a lot of fresh smoked tomato flavor and while a lil on the thick side it's also very fluide and at a whopping 16 fl. oz. it will last you a little while but we certainly want it to be eaten and not just a beautiful art piece in the refrigerator. Besides, my cat's need shoes
Test-ta-monial: D-Lish...what else would you call it? It's not a BBQ sauce, not just a steak sauce either. Back in the late 80's someone had the nerve to ask me for some catsup. Well you can only imagine the horror on my face. Then one rainy day, I love rainy days, I concocted a great sauce. It's fabulous and sophisticated for fish, bird, beef, wild game, veggetables or as a vinaigrette or bloody mary. Recipes on this page for you. It finished out with 30 ingredients like turmeric, amaretto, smoked tomato, my coffee blend to name a few. There's more to the story but it would take me forever to spell check so when u c me I'll give u the full version. This D-Lish Sauce has been in the making for about 25 years so i think i'm done. The ‘Not Hot’ sauce which is spicy but not a lingering heat on the back of your throat is dam good. I make my sauces to go with foods so if your lookin for sauce that burns u up it want be mine but you should try it anyway.
The art o Syd, thats rite, i paint to........
For as long as I been cooking, maybe longer, I been making art of some sort. Some peoples have tried to describe it only to talk themselves into a tizzy. One ole man from Norfolk said 'Nobody should do art and it doesn't belong in a restaurant'. He was constipated for sure. It's a little bit folk art, a little political, sometimes even the goofy religious cults get in there but generally irreverent in some ways (many ways probably).
Here you can see some of it up close and personal. This is jus a tease. and of course you can purchase any or all of them. just drop me a line on my email, fishpigcafe@gmail.com. it really would look good over your sofa and if your color blind like me they all will blend perfectly,
Now that you've seen my art you are ready for some of my wisdom. I'm leaving that from time to time as well as my poetry. and just an important thing to always remember, 'a day without rain is like a day with sunshine'
that's it for now, stay tune.
