One by one, the stretch of Broad Street between Spring Garden Street and Girard Avenue is filling in with newcomers. Friday was the opening of Cameron Seafood, the first Philadelphia outlet of a chain in the D.C. area, where it has 13 locations. It's in a gleaming, six-store-wide storefront three blocks north of Osteria and just up the block from the Met, that gargantuan white building at Broad and Poplar. Cameron has a well-stocked fish counter (halibut, salmon, tuna, red snapper, crabs and the like), plus a quick-serve counter for eat-in/takeout (your usual fried and broiled platters). Specialties include crab gumbo, crab balls and seafood subs (not hoagies). Posted hours are 9 to 9 Mondays through Saturdays and 10 to 7 Sundays. 906-916 N. Broad St., 215-765-1000.
