The last breakfast. We went back to the Fairway. My nephew's pancakes
My California benedict (with tomato and avocado)
My husband's Nanny's benedict (over potato pancakes)
And now it's off to the food store to get ready for some home cooking. See you on the Dinner! thread.

@Smithy, Beachcomber is a classic restaurant for me. I have probably been there 40 times! I will confess that I prefer Winslow's. :-)
We tried again for Beachcomber today, but Hermine is now here on the Outer Cape, and the wind and waves were ferocious. I have no photos of the ocean because there was so much sand violently blowing around and I was concerned that my lens would be damaged if I tried for a photo. The waves were HUGE. We ended up having to leave because my niece was convinced the restaurant was going over the dune. She was so scared she started to cry, so that was that. We ended up back at Mac's Shack.
Big kahuna roll
Littlenecks
Steamers
Tuna tartare
Lobster roll
Burger no fries for my nephew with the crustacean allergy
Fried oysters
Fried clams
Fish and chips
Lobster tostadas
Everyone has returned to the real world other than myself, my husband, and my nephew. One more breakfast and then this food adventure is over until next month, when we are back for Columbus Day weekend and then the locally famous Wellfleet Oysterfest the following weekend.

@Thanks for the Crepes thanks for the nice compliments on my photos! I do enjoy taking pictures.
@Okanagancook yes, the whales were very close to the boat. I also had a good position because we were the second group in line to board the boat, so that helped a lot.
Yesterday we tried to revisit the Beachcomber, but no luck. Their parking lot was full, as was the auxiliary lot that they shuttle people over from. So, instead it was back to Winslow's Tavern. We had some new items, but also some repeats.
It was breezy, so some clam chowder was in order. This one had grilled corn in it, which I enjoyed.
An arugula salad
A pear-apple salad
Kale caesar salad
Roasted oysters
Tomato salad with bacon jam and burrata
Soft shell crab sandwich
The pug mac
Scallop roll
Prosciutto panino
Double chocolate mousse
Key lime tart
And a surprise sunset. We thought Hermine would interfere, but last night was beautiful.
We leave for home tomorrow morning, so I have just two more meals to share for this trip.

Ritz cracker crusted bluefish

Time for a fire pit and s'mores. Sounds like the end of the trip is going to get washed out by Hermine. We'll stick it out anyway.

We spent yesterday at Head of the Meadow beach in Truro
I spied a food truck in the parking lot so went to investigate. Tacos!
A bean and cheese quesadilla for my nephew
Cod tacos for myself and my husband
I have more photos from yesterday but my internet is running very slow so will update more later. We are going on a whale watch today and I am hoping for some good photos. There are a lot of whales around. We spotted at least seven from the beach at Race Point the other day.

@liamsaunt years ago when we were in P-town we used to get Portuguese sweet bread -NOT the bread I make but more like a sweet breakfast treat my MIL loved ........have you seen it or heard of it?
Yes, that bread is available for sale in all of the stores out here. I just posted a picture in the breakfast thread of a strata I made this morning using the bread. There is a Portuguese bakery on the main drag in Provincetown that sells it in many different shapes. The other stores typically have the english muffin shape and then just large loaves.
One more picture, a late night snack I made using local clams: clams casino dip. The recipe was in an Elin Hilderbrand book that I just finished reading. Quite tasty.

Littleneck clams with pork belly and tasty broth
Onion stings
Kobe beef burger with bacon
El Guapo burger (fried avocado and chipotle aioli toppings)
Surf and turf burger

A quick tour of the offerings at PB Boulangerie in Wellfleet. Not recommended for dieters.
I bought 8 croissants, 4 blueberry danishes, 2 chocolate tarts, and a baguette. I'll eat one croissant tomorrow. The rest will be eaten by the teens. Oh to have their metabolism.
And of course tonight's sunset.

For dinner, we returned to Mac's Shack. Oysters broiled with garlic butter

Salmon tartare
Random sushi
Razor clams

nephew had a salad with gorgonzola dolce, hazelnuts, pears and apples
we also ordered a tomato burrata salad to share
and a pizza with figs and bacon jam
crab cake sandwich
softshell crab sandwich
lobster risotto cake
double chocolate mousse
tiramisu
We are not dining out today, I am grilling some swordfish. I'll put that on the dinner thread. Tomorrow we are going someplace new to us.
Edited to add a photo of last night's sunset

flounder from my fish share in a crunchy crust with Major Grey's mango chutney, coconut rice, sugar snap peas in sesame oil, and a new to me summer squash I found at the farmer's market that I disliked but the teens enjoyed. Pretty basic as my niece and nephew are living with me this week and I would rather cook things they will eat to avoid "dinner drama"

I'm back! This is not the long report. We went for an impromptu weekend in Chatham. The long trip starts on Saturday. I was with a bigger group so missed a lot of photos I would have taken. We ate twice at Bistro on Main and I've got nothing from those meals.

A breakfast at the Lazy Lobster. This breakfast took two hours. Annoying.

Posted
Moroccan style chickpea tangine with cilantro and harissa, with couscous. Shown neatly packed at home. By the time I walked it into work it was a jumbled together mess, but still tasted good.
