There are so many dynamic food duos, peanut butter and jelly, macaroni and cheese, strawberries and chocolate, wine and cheese I could go on but during the summer months
nothing rivals crabs and corona!! For our second anniversary we spent a long weekend in OCMD where the crabs are as plentiful as the coronas and did our namesake right.
Nothing beats a night at the beach, sitting outside, crack'n crabs, sipping coronas and spending time with good people...thanks Martiak's!!
That same weekend we made a trip to Dogfish Head Brewery
http://www.dogfish.com/ in Milton, DE and the BrewPub
http://www.dogfish.com/restaurant/index.htm in Rehoboth Beach, DE both within about an hour of OCMD, well worth the trip particularly on a rainy day at the beach. The beers were great, my favorite was Namaste and my least favorite was the 120 minute IPA. The food was pretty good, typical bar food...next time we'll have to try their spirits.
On our way back from the brewery we just so happened to come across Frenwick Wine Cellar
http://www.fenwickwinecellars.com/and had to stop. Nothing there blew us away but it wasn't bad. Definitely worth the trip on a rainy day at the beach.
We had to fit in a sunset at Fager's Island and an orange crush (or two), if you haven't done either you have to do both, together or separate just make it happen!
Fager's Island Sunset
Orange Crush, a drink that originated at Harborside Bar & Grill
http://www.ocharborside.com/ and as they say is "often imitated but never duplicated" in several bars in OCMD. The key...freshly squeezed oranges!!
Orange Crush Recipe
1 1/2 oz smirnoff orange vodka
1 1/2 oz triple sec
juice of 1 freshly squeezed orange
top it off with sprite or 7up
Serve over ice with an orange slice as garnish.
