Flemmings Donut Shack

Tasty homemade donuts in East Dennis Massachusetts.

Cape Cod Grapes

The Salted Cod decided to stop for a quick drink to quench his thirst as he was driving to Race Point beach. Located just a stones throw from Route 6, Truro Vineyards is worth the stop.

Go with a friend and for $5 a piece you get to taste all 10 wines Cape Cod's only vineyard has to offer. Sara Hutchings the local vineyard guru was more than happy to pour us a few before the lunch hour. Sara was extremely knowledgeable and super friendly explaining everything from the vineyards landscape to the buttery effect oak barrels bring to wine. I have to admit this was my first time doing a tasting and it was damn fun. We got to hang out in the warm Cape Cod sun analyzing each variety the vineyard offers. Sara was good at keeping me on my toes by helping me pinpoint flavors and attributes of each wine.

The Salted Cod's wine of choice was their "Cranberry Infusion." Bottled in a killer lighthouse it's great for summer sipping, who can say no to that! The runner up was the 2002 Cabernet Franc. It was hard walking away only purchasing one bottle but hey I'll be back...

What's for dinner?

This is actually a two part series becuase some people are still afraid of fish. The substitute for this evening is a wonderful bourbon marinated chicken skewer. (They had salmon envey though let me tell you!)

What's for dinner?

Wild Sock eye Salmon, summer rice, local asparagus & pea shoots!

Fresh fresh fresh, pressed to perfection, very nice patio, poor service.

Shake Shack

One hour & 26 minutes later we had one hell of a burger in our hands. Simply incredible.

The famous coal oven pizza endorsed by the Ramones was CLOSED for the day.

Replace me Tuesday

I'm heading down to Brooklyn tonight I'm looking forward to the trip. I'm planning on picking up a Holga 6x6 camera and hitting up Coney Island & Totonno's Pizzeria Napolitano (coal oven.) I should have some good pictures next week.

Here's a tasty summertime booze concoction. Lemon mint vodka! This batch is going to dumped into a big honkin watermelon for the holiday weekend. You can also make killer mojito's with it as well!

Day 21

Welcome to the jungle

Day 6

Cheaper than McDonald's

Came across Galleria Umberto on Hanover street today while riding my bike around town. Awesome Sicilian pizza and highly recommended arancini's. Some old guy told me "just try one" when I asked him what's in them. Turns out to be an oversize corn fritter stuffed with rice, cheese, meat and peas. Good stuff. No disappointments today, lunch was $3.45

Hopefully there will be enough sunlight.
