Buzzard Billy's is a quirky hangout for the Baylor crowd. Recently, they moved across the river to the old "Dock's Riverfront," and this was our first visit to the new place. Dock's was getting shabby when it closed, and BB's has really fixed it up very well. The food was, as usual, delicious. I am not a big fan of hush puppies (except from Bridge's Barbeque in Shelby, NC -- keep an eye out for that posting), but I really liked these -- soft on the outside, moist with a hint of pepper on the inside. The fish was good, too. Ramona ordered the platter so we could share the second piece, because I was really hungry and didn't think one piece would be enough. However, the pieces were large and I could barely finish the second piece. BB's corn crab soup is a favorite of mine, and I get it every time I go there.
