A Delmarvalous full moon, no less!! It was gorgeous. I stood on Lewes Beach, Delaware, to admire it.
Then, off to Bethany Blues, Lewes, located at 18385 Coastal Highway. A craving for ribs and barbecue chicken. Tel. 302-644-2500. Website? http://www.bethanyblues.com. Love coming here when I least expect it.
I give Bethany Blues and Big Fish Grill big thanks for being so aware of customers with food allergies and sensitivities. In my family’s case, it is a gluten allergy. Bethany Blues Manager will come to your table to discuss your allergy and your food options.
The restaurant was comfortably crowded and the fire was glowing. We sat at the bar area.
A dish that I would say “gotta have it” is the Crispy Pork Belly. It is an appetizer. Basically, you get cured pork bellies with a vinegar/apple cider sauce. Just a little bit is enough. Delicious.
An order of St. Louis Ribs which were thick and meaty, prepared with a brown sugar rub, smoked for a long time. The mashed potatoes were made out of red skin potatoes.
The Cheesy Creamed Corn….customers’ favorite.
My Saucy Delmarva Chicken was smoked and seasoned and then brushed with their house sauce. The meat fell off the bones, true!! And, that Sussex Medley, was a mix of garbanzo beans, diced cucumbers, tomatoes, onions with chopped cilantro in a light vinaigrette. It screamed Summer! That side was sooo good. During the summer months, when the veggies are at their best, this Sussex Medley is made with local tomatoes and cucumbers.
Some of their award winning sauces are gluten free.
The background music was good tonight. Live music on Fridays and Saturdays with Sydney’s Music Revival starting at 8:30 p.m.
Friday, 2/1 is Deb Callahan Band – Philadelphia’s blues and soul drenched vocalist and songwriter. Check http://www.debcallahanband.com.
Saturday, 2/2 Keith Mack and Ed Shockley, lifetime musicians will be performing. They are returning to their fan base by popular demand. Check http://www.keithmack.net.
Checking the restaurants that are open year-round….2013 is a new season!!
