IMG_4479

Dewey Beach has the perfect location.  The town is right between the ocean and the bay, therefore, affording visitors all kinds of water sports and activities.  Once you park you can walk from one restaurant or bar to another with no problem.  Does it get crowded?  That’s a given.   Music and dancing venues are located along the strip of Highway One or Coastal Highway.

Being that it is a St. Patrick’s Week-End at the beaches…please check websites or call to get the latest info.  Some have music and some don’t, but they are definitely open for the season.

The Starboard is located at 2009 Highway One (Coastal Highway)  http://www.thestarboard.com.  You know how Delaware loves its “vintage” tags?  Well, check the new VIP tag for all of you that want to bypass those long lines.  What a clever idea!!  Available this week-end.

Eating…in Rehoboth Beach, Fins, Fish House & Raw Bar, Restaurant, Review, Delaware Beaches

 

dscn2492

Not having gone out of the house all day, on Saturday, we decided to take a drive through Rehoboth Ave.  I could not believe how crowded it was.  It had been a rainy day, but at this time of the evening, the weather had cleared, and visitors were ready to start their evening.

Downtown Rehoboth Beach is a very walkable town; restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues are at close proximity.

We decided to stop at Fins located at 243 Rehoboth Avenue.  Tel. 302-226-FIN.  Website? www.finsrawbar.com

dscn2493

We just wanted a few drinks and some of their delicious oysters and clams.  It is a full fledge restaurant, but we chose their Bar.  It had a cozy atmosphere; crowded.   The saying “where everyone is your friend”, fits them perfectly.

dscn2472

Fins has two floors for dining, but, you can also eat at the bar.

dscn2479

It is well known for the seafood, but the restaurant offers beef and chicken dishes from local purveyors, as well.  Sandwiches like lobster rolls, po’ boys, crabcakes; and hamburgers, soups you name it.  A description of their dishes are found on the website.  But, better yet, pay them a visit.  They are open 7 days a week for dinner starting at 4:00 p.m.  On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, Fins opens for lunch, as well, from 11:30 until 4:00 p.m.

dscn2474

We came in and immediately decided to check their oyster menu.  It changes all the time, with Fins, offering the freshest oysters available.  Oysters are inspected right after they have been shucked.  No way are you going to get a bad oyster here. 

dscn2484

The beer board was up offering also custom crafted beers.  To the right you can see percentages of the alcohol level found in each.

dscn2486

A little conversation here or there with some of the patrons…it was time to order some oysters.  The first oysters ordered were Blue Points; plump, meaty and sweet.

dscn2478

The next oysters ordered were the White Caps.  These oysters were smaller but so delicious.  Salty, which is the way we like them.

dscn2483

I decided to go with steamed clams.  I love raw oysters but really do enjoy the clams, as well.  These clams were so good; small and tasty.  More than a dozen were ordered.

dscn2476

 

Having satisfied our cravings, we decided to go home.  It was getting to the point when plenty of diners were arriving.  This restaurant is one of those neighborhood restaurants that can mingle their more matured customers with the younger crowd.  It really was fun to watch.

Have a great day!!

Annapolis Towne Centre at Parole, Shopping, Living, Dining, Annapolis, Maryland

 

dscn2429

My neighbor in Rehoboth mentioned that if I was going to Annapolis, I should check out the Annapolis Towne Centre where shops and restaurants where right next to each other.  Sounded interesting and, definitely, worth checking.

I dragged my friend, Paula, to Annapolis with me for the day.  I don’t think she minded too much.  I needed to drop my car off for its  first service and one more errand to the Annaplis Mall.  You probably don’t care about all this info. but this is why I went to Annapolis.  It wasn’t just to shop and dine until I dropped.  No way, never.

The Annapolis Towne Centre at Parole is located at 2505 Riva Rd.  There are different ways to get there from Rt. 50.  It is a complex of shops, apartment living, Whole Foods, and restaurants.  By visiting http://www.visitatc.com, you can find directions and what they offer.  Residences are above the retail spaces with anchor stores and restaurants around.  Plenty of parking and the valet service is only $2. 

We were hungry and right in front of the valet service was a restaurant called Brio.  We went right in. 

dscn2417

I had never been to any of the Brio restaurants.  Did not even know it was a chain of restaurants found nationwide.  Their website is http://www.brioitalian.com.   They consider themselves “upscale affordable”; appealing to a broad base of customers.

dscn2406

We were served bread accompanied by a flat bread that was very good.

dscn2410

Paula decided on the Grilled Salmon Salad, with Roma tomatoes, asparagus, feta, crispy shoestring potatoes and balsamic vinaigrette.  The presentation was pretty and she thought it was good.

dscn2411

Mine was the Pasta Brio, Rigatoni (cooked al dente), grilled chicken, tomatoes, pine nuts and a cilantro pesto drizzle.  Well seasoned.  In my household we eat gluten free and as I was eating “real” pasta, I thought it was good but I find the gluten pata products just as good.

dscn2413

No dessert, just coffee for us.  It was such a beautiful day that a stroll through the Towne Centre is what we wanted to do.

By the way, our service at Brio was very good; our server was attentive and knew his menu well.

 

We stopped at a really cute store called Poppy and Stella.  They are located at 1910  Towne Centre Blvd., Suite 123.  Website is http://www.poppyandstella.com.  I want to come back and write a post on them.  On this particular visit, all I can tell you is that it had great shoes and accessories; no clothing, though.  They also have a store at 728 S. Broadway in Fells Point, in Baltimore, Maryland.

 

Continuing our stightseeing we stopped at Arhaus (pronounced “our house”), located at 1905 Towne Centre.  Tel. 410-266-0555.  Website?  http://www.arhaus.com.  They told us that while many stores around the country are closing shop, Arhaus is continuing to open more stores nationwide. 

dscn2430

Arhaus has a “global approach to designing all of their products; providing customers with a selection of unique, one of a kind pieces”.

The store had beautiful furniture, upholstering choices.  Gorgeous tables and home accessories.  Definitely unique, the following chandeliers caught our attention.

dscn2422dscn2420

 dscn2419

 

 

Another store we found very interesting was Great Gatherings.  With a motto of “Play Up Your Home”, you will find pool tables, stools, bars and game room accessories and furniture.  Let’s say you will be impressed with their entertaining essentials, as well as with all their outdoor fun furniture.

dscn2428

dscn2423

 dscn2424

Great Gatherings can be found at 1905 Towne Center Blvd., Suite 120.  Tel. 410-266-1111.  Website?  http://www.mygreatgatherings.com/find/annapolis.

dscn2425

 

Those were just a few of the stores.  Target was there, Sur La Table from California, tapas and sports bars/restaurants, men’s shops, women’s shops….too tempting to live under such harsh conditions…haha…talk to you later.

Eating…in Rehoboth Beach, Stingray, Sushi Bar & Asian Latino Grill, Delaware Beaches, Restaurant, Review

 

dscn2205_00

I thought nobody would be eating out the day after Valentine’s Day.  How mistaken I was, when my husband and I decided to go to Stingray, located at 59 Lake Ave.  Tel. 302-227-6476.  Website?  www.stingrayrestaurant.com.

dscn2215_00

It was crowded, lively and with plenty of young people.  This restaurant is a favorite of many.  It is trendy, hip and cool.

dscn2211_00

A full bar with plenty of seating; a lounge on one side of it offers comfortable sofas and lower tables for casual conversation and mingling.  Pictures?  Sorry, it was crowded and you have to give people their privacy.

Stingray does not close during the week.  It is open every single day.  Mondays through Fridays it opens from 4 p.m. until 1 a.m.  On Saturdays and Sundays it opens at Noon until 1 a.m. 

Check the website above mentioned.  You will be able to go through the menus.  Stingray offers catering and check for upcoming sushi cooking classes that are held at the restaurant.

Ever since I started my blog I have repeated many times that all my reviews and pictures of restaurants are my personal opinion.  I enjoy going out to dinner; could be a hot dog stand, a food truck, casual or fine dining.  At times, I like a a restaurant on a specific night; other times the same restaurant might leave me lukewarm.  With all that said, then, this is my review of my visit to Stingray on 2/15/12.

dscn2207_00

I liked the atmosphere and the music.  I felt I was eating at a lounge; lights dimmed just enough; fun and relaxing at the same time.

We ordered some edamame with a soy ginger dipping sauce, fresh lime and sea salt.  I love plain edamame; the dipping  sauce was excellent.

dscn2209_00

Towels to clean our hands had been brought to the table already.

My husband ordered sushi rolls. Unakyu which was a grilled fresh water eel and cucumbers, outside sesame seeds.

Unakyu and Man Eater Sushi Rolls

Unakyu and Man Eater Sushi Rolls

And, the Man Eater which was fried fresh salmon with jalapeno and spicy mayo; sprinkled with chopped fresh cilantro.

I noticed he was just looking at them and eating them really slow.  Not thrilled.  You know, you can tell when the person is hesitant.  I decided to try one of them.  The best way to describe it? Boring.  There were no games playing with your tastebuds.  He managed to eat most but left a few on his plate.

On the other hand, my Chilean Sea Bass, sambal chili glazed with a crunchy sticky rice cake and bamboo shoot salad was excellent.  The fish was perfectly cooked and seasoned.  A bite of the sea bass with the crunchy sticky rice was the best.  Talking about having a party with my tastebuds.

dscn2213_00

No dessert for us on that evening….will be back to study the sushi menu once again.

Note:  I asked for fresh wasabi; our server said they did not have any.  Hopefully, they will add it to their menu.  It does make such a difference.

Talk to you later…

Out & About, Petit Louis Bistro, Restaurant, Review, Baltimore, Maryland, Charm City, A City of Many Firsts

 

Going to Baltimore for the day is no brainer.  The Delaware Beaches are so close to major cities, like Baltimore, Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia.  A day trip is an easy one.

I lived in Baltimore years ago.  I have always liked it.  It is a small city comparing it to the nearby ones.  Like all of them it has the good, the bad and the ugly.  I tend to concentrate on the good.  Baltimore is a city of many firsts.  Many U.S. cities would love to have what Baltimore has to offer. 

A City of Firsts, yes indeed, with innovations throughout its history.  Advances and inventions in industry, transportation, science, and education.  Hospitals that are world renowned; a port, the Orioles, the Ravens, ethnic neighborhoods, fantastic restaurants.  A Farmers’ Market in its 35th year, right in the middle of the city.  Visit the website http://www.Baltimore.org/about-baltimore/baltimore-firsts.

img_6112

Can’t wait to see the celebrations kicking off the Bicentennial of the War of 1812.  Fort McHenry is the birthplace of our National Anthem; The Star Spangled Banner.  http://www.baltimore.to/fort-mchenry.html.

dscn1308

People don’t tend to move from Baltimore.  And, if they do, they always come back. They do drive a lot of Volvos too.  I have never seen so many.

We invited my sister in law, Susie, to have lunch.  Our choice was Petit Louis Bistro.  This is a classic French bistro located 4800 Roland Ave., Baltimore.  Tel. 410-366-9393.  Website?  http://www.petitlouis.com.

dscn2290

There is more to where this bistro is located.  The neighborhood is called Roland Park.  It was the first planned suburban community in North America, developed beween 1890 and 1920.

dscn2291

Also, the actual building is very interesting.  You see, this single Tudor style, small, shopping strip where Petit Louis is located, is the world’s first shopping center; opened in 1907.

As you enter, you will find a full bar and two dining rooms.  They are both very comfortable.

dscn2268dscn2271

dscn2275

Petit Louis opens for lunch and dinner.  They also have a brunch on Sundays.

dscn2267dscn2266

Our server was friendly, and immediately presented us with sourdough bread and homemade butter.

dscn2265

For lunch we had the choice of a Prix Fixe menu for $22.  3 courses included iced tea and coffee.  We liked the choices so Susie and I decided on this type of menu.

We both chose the Petite Salad de Mesclun.  Local Mesclun greens, Reggiano and a red wine vinaigrette.  Nicely seasoned,  and simple.

dscn2274

Susie chose the Croque Monsieur.  This was a sandwich of sliced Madrange ham, Gruyere cheese and frites.  Even though this is a standard on their menu, Susie thought it was the best one yet.

dscn2278

I had the Louis Casse-Croutes which was a steak sandwich, medium temperature, with caramelized onions, frites and a delicious horseradish aioli.  It really was so good.

dscn2277

My husband decided to go a la carte with all hors d’oeuvres for his lunch.

The first was a Terrine a la Mode Landaise.  It was a Foi Grass Terrine, without the grilled baguette, due to his gluten allergy.  Loved it.

dscn2272

Ris de Yeau which was a Sauteed Sweetbread with button mushrooms in a Madeira reduction.  Sweetbreads are not served in many restaurants; Baltimore seems to have them available.  He thought they were perfectly cooked.

dscn2280

He also had the Gravlax, which was the House Cured Salmon Gravlax, with capers and creme fraiche.  Paper thin and beautiful.

dscn2279

Susie and I had the choice of desserts. 

I loved the Mousse au Chocolat.  I always forget how good this dessert is.

dscn2282

Susie had the Fruits de Saison; a citrus custard on top. 

dscn2281

Coffee and an offering of cheese, which was greately enjoyed, ended a very nice lunch with family…

Talk to you later…

Horseshoe Crab

“Crash”: A Tale of Two Species” is a documentary that illustrates the story of nature’s amazing ability to create fragile connections among the most unexpected creatures, and how easily humans destroy these connections.  The iconic horseshoe crab is a part of just such a fragile connection.  They used to be harvested for fishing bait, leading to a significant decline in the population by the 1990’s…..If you want more info., just visit http://www.rehobothfilm.com  then click under Film Events.  Runtime is 60 minutes.  $5 for adults and $3 for children under 12 years of age.  More info?  call 302-645-9095.

Another Take, a gay and lesbian film series will begin on Saturday at 2 p.m. with the screening of “Beginners”.  This comedic drama is an exuberant, infectious testament to the power of letting go and diving in…  On Sunday at 2 p.m. Wish Me Away will be the next screening.  This documentary won the Audience Award for Best Documentary during the Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival.  The film tells the story of Chely Wright’s calculated preparation in 2010 to release an album and a book (Like Me) that made country music history.  She became the first country music star to reveal her homosexuality….
