June 20, 2008, Newsletter Issue #120: Delectable Dining in Cape Cod

Tip of the Week


From rustic waterfront seafood shanties to romantic fine dining, Cape Cod boasts over 1,000 eateries between Provincetown on the outermost tip of the Cape and the Canal. According to the Chamber of Commerce, you can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at a different spot each day and never dine at the same place twice in a year.

No matter what your taste buds crave, there is great dining close by. For fine dining, check out Twenty Eight Atlantic in Chatham, The Captain Linnell House in Orleans or the Sunday Brunch at Coonamessett Inn in Falmouth. Indulge in all-you-can-eat Brazilian barbeque at the famous Brazilian Grill in Hyannis. Pack a picnic. Go gourmet; there are plenty of markets and restaurants to provide fancy fixings. Or, keep it simple; a hot dog and a cold beer never taste better than on the beach.

Also, no New England trip is complete without digging into a traditional Cape Cod Clambake. Local restaurants offer versions of clambakes. Combine a clambake and a sunset cruise with a Cape Cod Clambake Cruise. Or, throw your own old-fashioned shindig for family and friends at your Cape Cod cottage. Cape Cod Old Fashioned Clambakes and Clams ‘R’ Us will do all the work while you take the bows for the feast.

Here’s a sample Clambake menu:

Clambake Menu
1-1¼lb Fresh Native Lobster
Farm Fresh Corn on the Cob
Drawn Butter & Seasoned Broth
Chatham Steamed Clams
Linqucia Sweet Sausage
New Potatoes
Steamed Onions

Cape Cod Cookie

(Note: Landlubbers don’t despair. A pig roast is available with the same side dishes!)
