Love checking out restaurants on a Wednesday. They are less crowded and so we did driving over towards Bethany Beach and going west to the new location of Perucci’s. 35715 Atlantic Ave., Millville, Delaware.
Perucci’s moved to this location almost a year ago. The former location was so quaint; not sure how this new one would be.
The restaurant is in the back building of this address. You can park there or in the front and walk back.
You should make reservations by calling 302-829-8727. They are also on Facebook. Website? http://Peruccis.com
Pleasantly surprised as we came in. It is warm and welcoming. To the left they have a nice size bar.
We like to eat late and arriving at Perucci’s this is how it looked.
And this other photo is a little later on?
Drinks followed. A simple dressed salad I had. It was so fresh with a Vinaigrette Dressing.
The eggplant parmigiana arrived. The eggplant was slightly breaded. Very good and a healthy portion too.
The Brussels sprouts were cooked the way I like them; soft and tender.
I really like Piccata and this time was the Veal Piccata. Capers, lemon, you know how it is. Enjoyed it?
A very nice evening enjoying our local restaurants once again.

Every month I get a magazine, not one I had requested. In it they always put a recipe. To tell you the truth they all look pretty good.
What a rainy afternoon we had in Southern Delaware yesterday. The latest recipe in that magazine was Cozy Winter White Bean Soup. The recipe comes The Yoga Plate: Bring Your Practice into the Kitchen with 108 Simple & Nourishing Vegan Recipes.
The recipe has simple ingredients and it is very easy to make.
COZY WINTER WHITE BEAN SOUP
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 medium onion diced, about 1 cup
2 stalks celery, diced
3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
2 medium potatoes, diced, about 2 cups
2 large carrots, diced
1 tbsp. Finely chopped parsley
1 tsp. Himalayan pink salt (use what you have)
6 cups vegetable broth (I used low salt and then adjust)
1 cup water
salt and pepper to taste
In a large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and garlic and cook until the vegetables are tender.
Add the beans, potatoes, carrots, parsley, salt, 6 cups of broth, and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for about 1 hour. If necessary, add more water and salt and pepper to taste.
How easy is that? Serve it and enjoy??

Friday the 13th…Scared? Superstition or not just don’t spill salt, like that’s something we do every day, break a mirror. Walk under a ladder…not sure if I ever do that.
One thing for sure you can do is go out to dinner. Our choice on Wednesday was Liquid Assets located on 9301 Coastal Highway in Ocean City, Maryland. This time of the year there is no traffic.
Liquid Assets opens every day. There are restaurants that serve a dot of food on your plate. I think Liquid Assets serves their customer so much food that you can pretty much split your meals. And everything is delicious. I kid you not.
Wednesday was crowded; bar seating, our favorite. Best bartenders, definitely.
My Massaged Kale Salad….wait a minute. Didn’t you know you have to massage the kale so it is nice and soft? I think I must have had the whole bag of kale. Huge. It had Bulgarian feta, roasted cauliflower, leeks, pickled shallots, crispy Serrano ham, and dressed with a lemon garlic vinaigrette. We ate it for another day and it was not soggy, so you know.
Right above my salad is the Tuna Crisps offering. #1 grade tuna, crispy wontons, wasabi cream, spicy kimchee, and seaweed salad. Great to have as an appetizer or pair it with your salad.
If you live on the Eastern Shore nothing like comfort food known as Chicken & Dumplings. Everyone has their own recipe. The one at Liquid Assets had rich veggies and cream gravy, smoked Amish air chilled chicken, slippery dumplings, yummy, and a buttermilk biscuit. Another hearty meal this time of the year.
Needless to say if you are in the area go visit. It is one of my favorites. Great atmosphere??
Have a great weekend.

Rehoboth Beach ends 2022 with the opening of the Libation Room, a Speakeasy. No way, really? Get out of here some will say. How fun is that?
Let me backtrack to the years of 1920-1933. Prohibition in the United States had establishments selling illegal alcoholic beverages. Shhhh…keep your voice down. Let’s not alert anyone. These were called Speakeasies .
The Libation Room is located inside the iconic restaurant the Summer House. New ownership but the reputation of a place for good food and fun times in Rehoboth Beach continues.
Reservations for dining at the Summer House are not accepted. But, for The Libation Room they are accepted and I do recommend them.
You may go through the main entrance on Rehoboth Ave. or make it more fun by going through the one on Christian Street, parallel to Rehoboth Ave. Then, cross the alley and the sign above will be there. No knocking necessary ? but you will walk right into the room.
Nowadays legal bars have modeled their establishments on historical speakeasies.
Soft lighting, comfortable seatings; almost too comfortable. This was Friday, December 30th. The Libation Room…first impression I do love. Lounge atmosphere conducive to conversation.
The Libation Room offers a full menu from the Summer House plus they have a tapas menu along with crafty cocktails.
A surprise was that when the menu is opened it lights up. You will be able to perfectly see their offerings.
Drinks were ordered including my new go to vodka called Rocktown from Rock Town Distillery, gluten free and not sold everywhere but it is here in Delaware.
The food was very good and we started with a Seafood Bisque, which had a nice consistency and not shy on lobster.
My Spinach Salad was particularly good as well.
The Mushroom Ravioli was delicious and hopefully they will keep the dish on the menu.
I love a good pork chop. I want a juicy one, pink in the middle. While the taste was delicious I found it a little dry to my liking.
The Libation Room opens Thursday through Monday 5 p.m. until 1 a.m.
Check them out. Fun place to visit while in Rehoboth Beach.
Happy New Year. AboutMyBeaches is on Facebook and Instagram.
