What’s Going On? Cooking Classes, Nage, Big Fish Grill, Chef Kris Etze, Dining Events, Blindfold Wine Dinners, Chowdown for Charity, Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware, Sussex County

All those cooking classes and dining for a cause…..but not before I tell you about my breakfast wrap.  I had a customized breakfast wrap at Arena’s Cafe at 17314 N. Main Blvd., at  The Villages of Five Points in Lewes, Delaware, 19958. Tel. 302-644-0370.  Open for breakfast and lunch it, has breakfast fare, burgers, sandwiches, etc. etc…..and plenty of parking.

This wrap was really good.  And, my most favorite ingredient was scrapple.  I am not much of a breakfast person but, this particular customization really hit the spot.

My friend, Jody, decided for something a little healthier, I guess…..and boring, like the eggwhite omelette.  She loved it!!  I think it was called The Popeye!!
