This time of year on Cape Cod is an epicurean’s delight as we weave our way from region to town in pursuit of the perpetual repast of restaurant weeks; the feast kicks-off with the Cape Cod wide restaurant week on 16th May which is followed immediately, to avoid any gluttony-withdrawal systems, by Provincetown. Focus then shifts to Wellfleet and Nantucket the week of 6th June and then summer is officially welcomed with the mouth-watering Harwich restaurant week starting 13th June (we still have some availability at The Platinum Pebble if you want to indulge!). A final burst, like the belt of my trousers, ends the summer when the feasting returns to Nantucket at the end of September.
So I thought that I would tip my hat to some of our favorite restaurants on Cape Cod with an alternative “best of…” list;
Best Raw Oysters – The Oyster Company in Dennisport (locally farmed at Quivet Neck in Dennis!)
Best Water View – Atlantic 28, The Wequassett in Harwich
Best Curry (national food for us Brits!) – The Indian Pavilion in Hyannis
Best Bar lights – Delmar in Chatham
Best Live Music – Sunday nights with The Grab Brother Band at Land Ho! In Harwichport
Best Ocean View – The Ocean House in Dennisport
Best Café – The Post Office in Provincetown
Best Gourmet Dining – Chillingsworth in Brewster
Best Late Night Eats – Pain d’Avignon in Hyannis
Best Restaurant named after a Pop group – ABBA in Orleans
If you want to come and enjoy a day of sun on the beach followed by some of the best food in New England
then come and see us at our Harwich Cape Cod Inn, The Platinum Pebble.
Safe travels,
Simon
