Sunday, after a very long beach walk, we stopped in to Mac's to get some snacks for the house
And then had dinner at Front Street.
The menu is massive. They had a soft shell crab appetizer that my husband wanted
and we also ordered some shrimp in a garlic butter sauce
I ordered seafood puttanesca over linguini
and husband had a special of scallops picatta
We split a pistachio creme brulee for dessert
We got out of dinner just in time to catch the sunset at Herring Cove.
Two photos because I could not decide...
Monday, husband worked and I walked. He took a break in the afternoon for "lunch" and we popped into town for an ice cream at the Nut House. My husband has a tendency to order the strangest sounding ice cream on the menu, and he did it again yesterday. Mine's the one the right: a scoop of strawberry and a scoop of blueberry. His is on the left: olive oil, salt, and pink peppercorn. Weird!
For dinner, we got a last minute reservation at Sal's Place. I've been wanting to try this place for a couple of years but you need a reservation, they never answer the phone, and there's no way to leave a message. Yesterday they randomly called me back and offered a table. Menu:
View from our table on the outdoor deck
Bread and oil
We ordered an arugula salad to start. They split it for us in the kitchen, so this is half
We also shared the arancini. These were great
Husband chose the seafood fra diavolo. He said it was delicious but could have been spicier. The waiter said they are still tweaking it because they had gotten some complaints that it was too spicy.
I had the peppercorn coated swordfish. It was delicious.
They brought over a plate of complimentary fudge to end the meal
And we were back to the beach just in time for sunset again!
