I love good food and I particularly enjoy local restuarants. But, I’ll be honest, with three small kids, we just don’t eat out very often and I have been missing out on some yummy local cuisine. I was so delighted to be invited to sample Plank Seafood Provision Happy Hour with other Omaha bloggers (without the kids.) My verdict: amazing, delicious and going back on date night.
I know every single person I talked to raved about Plank Seafood Provisions and having experienced it myself, I see why it’s so popular. Their food is delicious and each bite is full of flavor. I even tried Shucked Oysters on the Half Shell for the first time and really enjoyed them. Their horseradish sauce was extremely tasty on the oysters and they are only $1.00 each during Happy Hour.
Here are a few of my favorite Happy Hour specials:
Braised Beef Flatbread – caramelized onions, havarti cheese, baby arugula, grape tomatoes, blue cheese sauce, sherry reduction, olive oil, sea salt, cracked black pepper
Scottish Salmon Crostini – house smoked, boiled egg, shallots, citrus tarragon creme fraiche and tomato caper relish
Baked Mac & Cheese – cast iron baked, cheddar, bechamel, cavatappi pasta, parmesan breadcrumbs, paprika, chives
RedBearded Rita – No clue what was in this drink, but it made me happy (see pic below)
That all sounds amazing, right? Honestly, I don’t even know what some of those ingredients actually are, but the combination created absolutely mouthwatering food. If you haven’t tried Plank yet, check them out in downtown Omaha at 1205 Howard St. Happy Hour is offered Monday through Saturday 3-6:30pm and Sunday noon-8pm.

Looking forward to the chat. It was great to see you–and your drink looked incredible.
I can’t wait to go back as well! I already told my husband now that I’ve experienced oysters on the half shell, he has to try them too. I know him so well, I’m 99.9% positive he’s going to love them. If he doesn’t, then I guess that means more for me!
I agree on being introduced to new ingredients and the lovely combinations! Can’t wait to go back!
Sounds amazing! I am so excited for party!
Wow! It looks so good, I love your recipe, it’s great and I’ll follow it, Thanks!
