Haha starting with bread pudding first. Some of us can afford to do that and others have to exercise restraint.
We were at The Surfing Crab located at 16723 Coastal Highway. In Lewes, Delaware. Going north past the town on Lewes.
A craving for crabs is what we had. We called their telephone 302-644-4448 to reserve extra large crabs to be eaten there. You can also have take out. Surfing Crab has a full menu with really good food, as well.
Do you like hush puppies? An order of hush puppies , of course. Sophia made a sauce with Ketchup and Vinegar too.
Then those enormous crabs made an entrance. They were so sweet. We started picking, talking, a few beers and only took home 3.
I dipped the meat in vinegar. Others like butter too but vinegar was it last night.
Picking crab for me is relaxing and very social.
These are my first crabs of 2024. At The Surfing Crab the atmosphere is casual and fun. Great service by the way.
Check them on Social Media….At the moment they close Monday and Tuesday.???

Hello Monday Morning. Not the blues but a beautiful day in Southern Delaware. I remember when we all used to think that going out to dinner was only on weekends. Okay, it is true to some extent but if you have the opportunity to eat out any day of the week, please do so. Our beach restaurants are full of specials and Happy Hours. A good way to try some of those popular restaurants that are so crowded once the Season gets underway.
Our destination on Monday was Northeast Seafood Kitchen located at 29 Atlantic Ave. in Ocean View, DE. It is just a couple of miles west of Bethany Beach. Reservations are accepted. They have a kid’s menu. Opens at 4.
On Mondays they have a $19 Fish Board. Amazing, right? Your choice of fish and selection of cooking preparation.
Two of us decided to have the same thing: The Monkfish. This fish has a firm flesh, it is lean, and when cooked it is bright white. They say it is the Poor Man’s Lobster but that’s for you to decide. Ours was delicious ???
Mahi was also ordered and look how good it looked. Perfectly cooked.?
No dessert. Perfectly satisfied. Nice evening enjoying the company of friends.
For anyone with dietary restrictions, they do offer a variety of ways to accommodate you.
Until next time. AboutMyBeaches is on Facebook and Instagram. Check it out.
Remember that Good Food is the Foundation of Genuine Happiness ?

Another night in Rehoboth Beach. But not really. Valentine’s Day and Ash Wednesday; the beginning of Lent.
A stop to Saketumi to join some that already had a table full of delicious food. Saketumi came to Rehoboth Beach years ago. Located at 18814 Coastal Hwy. They have a presence on Social Media, as well. I have written about them in the past. You can put on the Search Saketumi and check it out.
Saketumi opens for Lunch and Dinner. Let’s not forget that they have a vibrant Happy Hour which is very well attended.
For Valentine’s Day they had that gorgeous offering but take a look at them up close. Who wouldn’t like that? I love sitting at the bar or at the tables on that section. Getting a closer look at what is being served.
Saketumi offers a variety of Asian cuisine. The colors are vibrant and our senses react well to them.
This Lettuce Wrap & Roll I do like it there. I know I can make it but once in a while I order it. I made it just in time to get a few rolls.
A favorite served as Sashimi is the Torched Tuna above. Jalapeños, red tobiko or flying fish roe, chives, masago crackers, and spicy ponzu sauce.
The Yellow Tail served in a similar manner I also ordered. All I can say is Yum!?
Always ask for fresh Wasabi. So much better.
Another roll for Sophia, my granddaughter and the yougest foodie I know. Please double the fish roe?
Sophia continued to eat and tell us stories as she enjoyed her Pho.
Sharing meals is a social bonding. It provides us an opportunity to come together, laugh and share experiences.
I love it. AboutMyBeaches is on Facebook and Instagram. Check us out.

Wow, two visits to The Federal in 2 weeks. That good. It opened in Downtown Rehoboth Beach a few years ago as Federal Fritter. I have to agree that calling it just The Federal is so much better.
We tried the Crispy Virginia Oyster Fritters and we chose the Lemon Horseradish Aioli for dipping. They were crispy and light.
Going back and forth….what should we have?
A choice of the Softshells as a main course. They did have them as a starter, as well.
I am so glad the House Made Ricotta Gnocchi is kept on the menu. It is delicious. This dish has MD Blue Crab (the best), gulf shrimp, New Bedford scallops, sugar snap peas, pesto cream sauce.
The scallops is another dish that is excellent. Served with sauteed sweet corn, local peaches, and pickled banana peppers.
I decided to go with two starters for my dinner. Brought at the same time.
Chilled Delmarva Sweet Corn Soup with poached gulf shrimp, pickled watermelon, and roasted corn.
Then the Starter offering of the Softshells.
Fresh fruit during the summer…..Yummy tarts with homemade ice cream.
I have to give a shout to Lauren. She was so friendly and knew the menu well.
Summer 2023 as we know it is coming to an end but the next season is my favorite in Southern Delaware.

Taking an opportunity of a gorgeous day we went for an early dinner to Harbour at Canal Square located at 134 W Market St., Lewes. Tel. 302-200-9500. It opens Wednesday-Sunday. Lunch Friday and Saturday and Brunch on Sunday. Please check:
Out and About Friday night. Not the best weather. Checking out what’s going on in Lewes. Great to see people walking regardless of the weather.
First stop? Agave located at 137 2nd St. This is, actually, Main Street in Lewes.
Agave has been in Lewes for many years and this is the first location and my personal favorite. There is background music, people are talking. It is cozy and fun. Favorite spot to take a seat is the bar. Lots of action there. It is a busy place. They open at lunch.
Two favorite drinks I truly love here. The Avocado Martini, and their traditional Margarita. Salt too please.
Tonight I chose their original margarita. It is so good.
It goes great with my Avocado and Mango Salad with some skirt steak to make it a full dinner.
Tommy decided to get a Pomegranate Margarita to accompany his Guacamole. They do make the best guacamole in town.
Have you had their Puffy Tacos? The tacos become puffy when the corn tortilla is deep fried. The water in the masa expands. I like them.
Tommy’s Puffy Fish Tacos were very good and doggie bag was requested. And there is his Pomegranate Margarita ?
Completely satisfied we continued on our Friday stroll.
People scream for Ice cream. There was a line for Kings Ice Cream. There is always one.
Next Stop? Bethany Blues on Coastal Highway. Great music this weekend. The venue for live music is perfect. Last night two bands but tonight starting at 8:30 is Roger Girke and The Wondering Souls. You can eat, drink and dance all in one place.
Have fun whatever you are doing. Relax, you are at the beach. Slow down and enjoy the moment.

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??
