For our last lunch we went to the Beachcomber http://www.thebeachcomber.com This is the most famous restaurant in Wellfleet, partially for the music and bar scene. We always go at lunch which is crazy enough. I am too old to deal with the shenanigans at night. The beach was not so welcoming on this day
We opted to stay up top of the dune. It was cold enough to warrant some clam chowder
My nephew loves this restaurant because they fry their fries in a separate fryer, so he can eat them
I also had a fried clam roll. Whole bellies of course
niece just wanted mozzarella sticks
For our final dinner, we returned to Mac's Shack. Oysters French
random sushi
the big tuna
striped bass
That's it for now. I'll be back out there for 10 days next month and have some new places I want to try. I'll post about them here.

A couple more updates. The day we went to Provincetown was HOT, so we decided not to go into town. Instead, we had lunch at Mac's Fish House, which is about a mile away from the center of town. https://www.macsseafood.com/restaurants/macs-provincetown My niece is a sushi hound, so she ordered many of the same things I showed in the Mac's Shack post. We also ordered a tempura fried spicy tuna stuffed avocado:
I had the swordfish pastrami rueben
Husband had a scallop roll
Nephew had a burger (no picture). He's allergic to shrimp, crab, and lobster, so has pretty limited choices when dining out on the Cape. Luckily he really likes burgers.
Yesterday we backtracked a bit and went to Chatham for the day so the kids could go shopping at the candy stores. Mistake, it was insanely crowded. We had lunch at the Impudent Oyster https://www.zagat.com/r/impudent-oyster-chatham/menu
Nephew's veggie burger (no fries because of his allergy)
Tuna pan bagnat
Scallop roll with housemade chips
chopped salad
Sticky toffee pudding
Salted caramel brownie sundae
On the way home we stopped at PB Boulangerie for some treats. http://pbboulangeriebistro.com
Croissants
Coffee eclair, cheesecake, and chocolate tart

Yesterday we lost two of our six members of vacationing party to their need to return to work, so it's just my husband, niece and nephew for the rest of the trip. We were only moderately hungry yesterday (and did not feel like driving) so went to a casual place near our rental house, the Pearl http://www.wellfleetpearl.com
clams casino
fried calamari
avocado but with housemate chips
salad with strawberries and goat cheese
pasta with creamy pesto and chicken
oyster po boy
We are going to Provincetown today.

Halibut turadito
Spicy tuna mango martini

Striped bass with roasted red pepper sauce, coconut foam (I hate the way foam looks, but it tasted good!), asparagus and rice

A sushi special. I can't remember what it was called but it's tuna with spicy scallops on top
and finally, for my non-fish eating nephew, housemade pasta with a tomato-basil-macadamia nut pesto

I am on the Outer Cape now and thought I would add my dining experiences to this thread. It's insanely crowded out here right now so we won't be traveling other than on foot until after the weekend, but I'll be out in Provincetown a couple of times and will stop in to Pop and Dutch. I remember seeing it last year but we did not go in.
We came out Thursday night to beat the bridge traffic and stayed two nights at a hotel in Eastham before checking into our usual rental house in Wellfleet. On Friday we had breakfast at the Fairway https://www.fairwaycapecod.com
My niece and nephew both had pancakes
My husband got the Flying Pigwich. Ironically they forgot to put the bacon on it! That was fine because my meal came with too much bacon so I gave him some of mine
I had the Nanny's potato pancakes with poached eggs
We were expecting more members of our group to join us that evening so decided to just go back to the same place for dinner. I'm lazy like that sometimes. My husband and I shared an order of fish tacos. They were huge. I could have been done eating after this.
My niece and nephew got mozzarella sticks
I ordered linguini with clams for dinner. It was enough for five people! I prefer smaller portions.
My husband got lobster mac and cheese. Again, too much food
My niece and nephew opted for calzones

A couple of recent meals. Spanglish sandwich
Mushroom pizza
I am back out on the outer part of Cape Cod for the next week and am hoping to get some good local fish to cook for dinner. It's striped bass season so that's what I am hoping to grill for the 4th. I'll post about my restaurant meals in the New England dining thread.

Back from a two week vacation in which there was not enough home cooking (other than breakfast) and too much restaurant food. I am afraid to get on the scale. Last night's fish share was hake. I made a coconut curry fish recipe from the book Made in India
and from the same book, green beans with mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and ginger.

@liamsaunt going to hard be to leave that view
I am now at a vacation house on the other side of the island with arguably a better view. I will post a picture of it with my breakfast tomorrow

Curried chicken salad on organic locally grown greens. There is only one farm on this island mostly greens and herbs but occasionally tomatoes are available. And of course local fruits. Local mango is in this salad.
and for my picky eaters who turn up their noses at curried chicken, cheese, crackers and fruit. Plus some leftover steak from the other night.

I spent the Memorial Day weekend out in Wellfleet on Cape Cod. The weather was gorgeous (except for today, it is pouring today!). I did not do much cooking, but we ate out a lot. The Beachcomber is probably the most famous restaurant out here. It is not at all fancy, always extremely crowded, and the crowd can be a little rough (aka drunk!). We go for lunch because the scene at night is not always teen appropriate. They do a nice job with their fryer.
Fishwich
Fried clams
Steamer clams
Oyster po boy
And from the raw bar, sesame seared tuna
