Miyagi, Ramen Bar, Restaurant, Review, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, Southern Delaware, DE Beaches, Japanese, Korean, Fusion Cuisine, The Art of Wining and Dining

We should consider ourselves so lucky to be at the Southern Delaware Beaches. Scorching temperatures even if sitting at the beach.

With hot temperatures I would like something light for lunch and dinner. It was late in the afternoon when I decided to stop at Miyagi Ramen Bar located at Shops at Seacoast, 19266 Coastal Highway, Unit 6 in Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. It is where the Safeway is.

Miyagi opened a few years ago and to tell you the truth I should have stopped sooner. It was great to see Kim again. I used to always talk to him when he was at Saketumi. He owns Miyagi and is enjoying the hard work that it takes to give customers the best ingredients money can buy.

By the way his noodles are homemade. He makes weekly trips to Philadelphia to buy all the ingredients needed to make these dishes all top notch.

The restaurant is bigger than it appears from the outside. Plenty of parking which is a relief this time of the year.

There is a full bar, as well.

I decided on the Tuna Poke Bowl. This dish had sashimi grade tuna, poke sauce, avocado, edamame, bonito, seaweed salad, nori, masago and mixed greens over rice. It was delicious. A healthy serving too.

The website is http://www.miyagiramenbar.com.

The telephone is 302-567-2385. Take out orders are offered but to me I think the experience is eating inside. Check the menu.

I cannot wait to go again. Plenty to choose from even for my Vegan friends.

Unitl later, let me know how you like by going to the AboutMyBeaches Facebook page.

Summer 2019 is passing by.

Little Fig Cakes, Modern Mixture, Spanish Custom, Cafe Con Leche….Yum!! Delaware Beaches, Rehoboth Beach, Southern Delaware, Friday, 10/8, Saturday, 10/9, Dru Tevis will be making yeast donuts, Fresh and to Order

I remember growing up in the Island of Puerto Rico.  The Spanish culture is one that likes to enjoy the good things in life.  The small towns in Puerto Rico, when I was growing up, were what towns throughout the U.S. are trying to achieve now….that Main Street type of atmosphere.  That sense of being able to walk the sidewalks, greet your neighbors and plenty of times, be invited for a good cup of coffe, by a neighbor or relative…Cafe con Lefche, which is coffee with milk, or a Cafe Cortado, which only has some milk, or the classic Spanish Pocillo.  The coffee would be accompanied by a sweet pastry or cake.

Which brings me to my short post.  Leo Cabrera is the owner of Modern Mixture, located at 62A Rehoboth Avenue in Downtown Rehoboth Beach.  Tel. 302-227-0600.  Website?  http://www.modern-mixture.com His restaurant is the talk of the town.  Leo serves food that is fresh, healthy and exciting.  He closes on Tuesdays and on Sundays he is open until 3 p.m.  Otherwise, he is open.  You may call him and ask him what’s cooking on that particular day.

Modern Mixture is casual and Leo prepares great specialty drinks.

So, when Leo called me to tell me that he had fig cakes for me I ran.  The cakes were made with fig jam, from the figs tha I had given him.  They were so good and brought me those memories above mentioned….particularly the coffee at my grandmother’s house.

The little fig cakes had just the right amout of sweetness…the fig jam doing its job.  A little bit of cheese, complemented the fig jam.  The consistency was light and it reminded me a bit of cheesecake….definitely lighter, though.

I liked them so much I decided that they belonged as a featured post.  Thank you Leo….I loved them!!  So simple and sweet.

Note:  Stop by on Friday, 10/8 and Saturday, 10/9 at Modern Mixture from 6 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. when Dru Tevis will be making yeast donuts fresh and to order.
