Ocean City Eats

Hey everyone!! I'm back from my mini-getaway to Ocean City, MD and it was my first time ever going! Of course, I'm going to tell you about my eats so you know where to go next time!

On our first night (Monday, 8/9/10), the boyfriend, Z, and I got a fresh squeezed lemonade to split and it was really good! Can't beat that on a hot night on the boardwalk.

Next we went to dinner at Captain's Table on 15th and the boardwalk. It located inside the Courtyard Marriott. Because the entrees themselves were a bit pricey (pushing 30 dollars for all entrees), the boyfriend and I decided to get a few appetizers and share them. We got a Maryland crab chowder, wings, steamed little neck clams, and diver scallops with mixed greens. First of all, the portions were really good on their appetizers! I could have eaten one of the appetizers on my own and felt super satisfied. The chowder was a bit salty, but great fresh crab flavor (and filled with lump crabmeat!) Next, I dove into the clams (I love seafood, clams, mussels, and scallops especially). The broth they steamed them in was SO good. Filled with white wine, butter, cayenne pepper, tomatoes, and herbs...oh my goodness. AND they gave us half a loaf of bread to soak up all that broth. I think I needed another good 5 loaves =P. Next, the wings. We ordered the mild sauce and it was super tasty. The bleu cheese was delicious as well. The diver scallops were huge! Plus, wrapped in applewood smoked bacon and seared in a pomegranate-acai reduction. The mixed greens came with candied pecans, gala apple, and thinly sliced red onion-- PERFECTION! What a great meal that came out to about $38 pre-tip! So tasty, so good. Definitely check out the Captain's Table next time your in OC!

For dessert, I had read good things about Polish Water Ice, so Z and I tried it! We got pina colada and the creaminess of it was unreal! So much smoother than italian ice or Rita's, it was SO good! You have to check them out! They also hand out free samples! =)

The next day, we had breakfast in our hotel. For a mid-morning snack, I had to try Dumser's Dairyland ice cream! I got coconut chocolate chip and it was SUPER good. So creamy, so silky. It's a must!

On the way home, we had Hardee's. Great burgers, and they bring the food out to you if you eat in the restaurant! I like to call it the east coast Carl's Jr. The fries and onion rings are SO good! Craving Sonic? Try Hardee's for a change!

Those were all the eats I got in the OC! Let me know about the eats you've had there!

Until next time =)
