Dining Out on the Cape

The Cape has much to offer besides beautiful beaches. One of my favorite activities during the off season is dining out. After the tourists leave many restaurants offer specials for their year round customers. One of my favorites which I recently discovered is the Ocean House on Depot street in Dennisport. The restaurants offers a spectacular view overlooking Nantucket Sound and creative cuisine using fresh local seafood and ingredients. This time of year from Wednesday to Sunday (not valid Saturdays or holidays) they have a special three course prixe fixe meal for $25 per person. Make sure to reserve (508-394--0700) for I went with my husband and sister midweek and had trouble getting a table.

Abbicci on route 6A in Yarmouthport also offers a $25 special for a three course meal. It has a wonderful Mediterranean tapas menu in addition to their regular menu. The restaurant was renovated last year and has several small cozy room. Most importantly, the food is supurb! Other restaurant in the area that I have enjoyed are the Yarmouth House, Paddock, Dolphin, Alberto's, 501 Main, and the Roadhouse. The Cape has some of the best restaurants I've been too and with prices much lower than the metropolitan areas. Why not plan a dining weekend? And, of course, we would love to have you stay at our hotel, the Tidewater, where our staff will is ready to give exceptial service.

A perfect way to sample many restaurants in one visit is to attend the Restaurant & Food Holiday Festival called the "Taste of Cape Cod". This festival is on Sunday, November 18th, from 1PM to 8PM. For details visit the website, www.TASTEOFCAPECOD.com. Enjoy a swing band, jazz, strolling singers, meet the Chefs and sample taste their signature foods for only $25 per person. Bon appetite!
