Where We’re Eating

Here’s what the EZ team were chowing on this week

NEW JERSEY’S PREMIER

FARM-TO-BOTTLE DISTILLERY

Featuring Artisan Cocktails & Spirited Gifts

Tastings, Tours, Entertainment & Events

Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or,

maybe even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent

dining establishments. Then we give you the skinny on

what we ate, what we talked about (or some of what we talked

about), who spat their drink from laughing too hard, who served

us, who we bumped into and, you know, the general lay of the land.

The place: The Lookout, the first of three restaurants Exit Zero

Hospitality has opened at the new Ferry Park. The restaurant is an

incredible spot to catch the sunset with its panoramic views of the bay

The server: Bri joined the EZ Hospitality team right before The

Lookout opened in April, but she isn’t new to the restaurant industry.

She’s served and bartended at a few places in town, including Jackson

Mountain (before it was Delaney’s), Cabanas, the Pier House and Taco

Thursdays 6:30-9:30

Caballito. Bri made a few suggestions, and they did not disappoint.

“The scallops are delicious, and you can’t go wrong with the lobster

bisque,” she says. “The risotto is enough to share, but the spinach and THE SYMPOSIUM

mashed potatoes are more of a single portion, which you’d want them

to be anyway — they’re both amazing.” Bri was extremely knowledgeable

of the menu and exceptional all evening.

The drinks: Dan went for the Mermaid first, per Nicole’s recommendation,

and Nicole tried the Spritz 64. Dan also wanted the Ferry

Undertow

Terry O’Brien’s legendary column... social satire, shameless plugs — and general self-indulgence

Thoroughly enjoying this 11th week

of March. Getting Done Dirty of the

Week: “Crossing Broad,” an otherwise

delightful Philly sports blog, recently

listed their Top 10 Car Commercial

Catchphrases and my iconic character, Larry

Crinkle, was nowhere to be found. (For the

uninitiated, Larry Crinkle is a character I’ve

played in a series of commercials for Davis

Honda in Burlington, where you should buy all

your Hondas. (And no, they weren’t national

spots, I am still very poor.) I guess, technically,

Larry didn’t have a catchphrase, but I feel like

the whole character is a catchphrase.

Jay Gaskill of Villas Liquors accepted

my razzing last week in the good-natured

ball-breaking sentiment in which it was

meant. (I mean, he’s a Cowboys fan.) He

told me about the time he and a buddy trolled

Eagles fans by wearing New Orleans Saints

shirts to work, which led to, you guessed it,

ABSOLUTE OUTRAGE on social media and

in that granddaddy of local outrage, Spout Off.

Apparently, they should have been fired for

not being Eagles fans. (I mean, it’s weird to be

a Cowboys fan, but that’s a whole other conversation.)

Jay, take it from me, a guy whose

brother died of Covid but received a scathing

hate email for making a Covid joke sent by

some brave person who didn’t put their name

on it, you receive the most flak when you’re

over the target.

For the second week in a row, I ran into

Steve Bistak at Cape Harbor Shell while I was

dropping off magazines. I thought, “Wow,

what a weird coincidence.” That’s when Steve

told me he works there, that owner Jerry

Mancuso is his neighbor and was having

trouble finding help, so Steve offered up his

services. It makes me sad to think of how

desperate Jerry must have been to hire Steve

Bistak. (Shakes head sadly.)

Bravado is a new coffee shop in Villas (in

the old Boyd’s Barbecue) and, based on my

one visit, it’s pretty damn good. Took a little

while to get our coffee and breakfast sandwiches,

but they were slammed and had only

two people working at the time (not a criticism,

I know everyone is desperate for help;

just look who Jerry Mancuso had to hire), but

when we got them they were delicious. The

interior also received a nice update. Good

luck, dudes.

Also, congratulations are due for Grana

BYOB, which recently opened in the former

Godmother’s. I mentioned them in passing

last week but was remiss in not offering a

“good luck, dudes.” So, good luck dudes.

You’ve heard me speak before about

spend all his time just walking the length of

I picked up a Kobalt battery-powered

THE ULTIMATE CAPE MAY FOOD & DRINK GUIDE

What You Need To

Know About The

Food And The Vibe

Enjoy fresh, farm-to-table bakery items along with

La Colombe coffee drinks. Start the morning with

delicious sweet breads, muffins, scones and cookies.

Enjoy the quiet beauty of this 62-acre farm in West

Cape May and then indulge in the farm-to-table

treats for breakfast or lunch. The soups, salads,

sandwiches and juices are excellent.

Check out why Congress Hall’s restaurant is a favorite

of locals as well as hotel guests. They serve classic

tavern food for breakfast, lunch or dinner, with a

choice of indoor and outdoor dining.

The Boiler Room has a chic industrial vibe with

exposed brickwork, stainless steel table tops and a

dance floor that’s often bopping. Feast upon brickoven

pizza with draft beers.

Congress Hall’s lounge got a very groovy, very sexy

renovation. The bar was enlarged (and moved) and

there are all sorts of seating nooks from which to

enjoy great drinks and a great vibe.

Step inside the new eatery and retail store at the

Cape May ferry terminal. Enjoy a quick meal or snack

before hopping on the ferry and shop all the Exit Zero

and new Ferry Park Swag!

Comfy joint in the middle of the mall, featuring a raw

bar, surf-n-turf entrées, sandwiches and burgers, plus

outside tables for some great people-watching!

As you’d expect of an Irish pub, this is the place to get

Guinness and good pub grub. The burgers and meat

pies have been receiving rave reviews.

Focused on community, this restaurant provides

fresh homemade food made from local ingredients,

including fresh-baked artisan breads.

Enjoy your meal on The Ebbitt Room porch,

overlooking tree-lined Jackson Street, or take in the

buzzy vibe of the dining room and bar.

Located in North Cape May and their newest

location on the Cape May beachfront, serving up

affordable and authentic Mexican dishes made from

only the freshest ingredients.

Know About The

Food And The Vibe

Casual and family-friendly, E. M. Hemingway’s offers

fine seafood, prime beef and excellent specials. All

right across from the beachfront. Great place to

watch sports, too.

Thai and Indian food, plus there are some fun

American dishes, too and great burgers. Enjoy drafts

and cans from Cape May Brewing Co plus some

seriously crafty cocktails.

Inside, enjoy the exciting maritime-themed decor

inside. Outside, you can enjoy eating out in the

middle of Decatur Street, under the canopy.

This hotspot is a gastropub from the owners of Tisha’s.

Here you’ll enjoy the same high-quality food and

high-quality service, in a relaxed atmosphere.

This local legend of an eatery serves up their signature

breakfast items, mouth-watering lunches and

generous dinners all in a welcoming and relaxed

environment.

Chef Carl Messick has taken over what was once

Godmother’s and transformed it into a relaxed, finedining

restaurant. Exquisite dishes featuring seasonal

A locals’ favorite for a reason. There’s a Key West vibe,

good food, regular entertainment, and the views are

spectacular.

Just steps from the Washington Street Mall, Iccara

Italian Bistro & Seafood brings you the fresh flavors of

Italy in a charming, welcoming atmosphere.

Take-out, fish market, restaurant, raw bar, breakfast,

dinner... The Lobster House has it all. Drinks on the

Schooner American before dinner is a must-do Cape

May experience.

Enjoy wicked waterfront sunset views, delicacies from

land and sea, handcrafted cocktails and really good

wines, located on the second floor of the Cape May

ferry terminal.

A huge hit and locals’ favorite for a reason. Excellent

food (the thin-crust pizzas are excellent), great bar

vibe and service. Lucky Bones gets it right every time.

Last week, we looked at movies coming

to theaters, but this summer there will

be plenty of at-home screenings! For

that, there are premieres worth noting

— and the first is one I know a lot more

up close and personal.

Netflix is releasing a new sports film

called Hustle, starring Adam Sandler. He’s a

basketball recruiter for the Philadelphia 76ers

who is struggling, but he discovers an athlete

who may get him back in the game! Part of this

was filmed on the campus where I work right

outside Philadelphia. Manor College is the

name of the small college and thank goodness

we have a gym that has a certain retro look

that impressed location scouts! For a week,

they descended on campus and shot various

scenes inside that gym. Sandler was on campus

with several notable basketball players

and other stars.

When I say the production descended,

believe it — trailer after trailer, trucks filled

with lights and equipment. No air conditioning

in the gym (told you it was retro), bet you

The Movie Column

By arts columnist Tom Sims

they brought that in and pumped it into the

building. If you watch the Hustle teaser online,

the main part of Sandler talking to his recruit

from Spain, played by Juancho Hernangomez,

was shot in our gym. I’m looking forward to

seeing the final product!

Andy Garcia leads the cast in a remake

of Father of the Bride on HBO Max. This is a

classic favorite and Garcia is a lot of fun in

comedies. Disney+ is featuring the untold

story of Jedi master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, starring

Ewan McGregor. It’s always a challenge to

find what’s new on Amazon Prime. This summer,

they seem to be pushing a lot of reality

TV. I’m assuming this audience can channel

surf for that all on their own.

Netflix has a few offerings to check out.

The Lincoln Lawyer is a new television series

that follows the 2011 movie about a lawyer

sidelined by his own bad decisions and an

auto accident. For you Jane Austen fans, an

adaptation of Persuasion comes this July. Ryan

Gosling stars in The Gray Man, a much-anticipated

spy thriller as well. Animation lovers

will want to look into a new Kung Fu Panda

installment with Jack Black reprising the title

role. The Sea Beast is from filmmaker Chris

Williams, who was behind hits like Moana

and Big Hero 6. It’s an ocean adventure for the

family.

Whether it’s on a “sheet screen” under

the stars in the backyard or in your air-conditioned

theater, there will be plenty to choose

from this summer.

I

should begin by admitting that I have

poor hearing. Back in grade school I

looked forward to the morning our

vision was tested. Year after year I was

able to read the smallest line of type with

ease. But when the earphones went on, it was

a different story. There would be gaps in the

tonal sequence punctuated by quizzical looks

from the school nurse. It seems I was 40%

deficient in the mid-tone range, a shortfall

that has only gotten worse over time.

Be that as it may, over the course of 70

years I have gained a degree of audio intimacy

with bird vocalizations, meaning I can link

most of the bird vocalizations I hear with the

right species. Most bird watchers acquire a

measure of this skill, and it opens a whole new

avenue to discovery and wonder. We can only

see 180 degrees of the planet, but with sound

we are in touch with the world around us.

You don’t need the audio acuity of a bat

or the audio recall of an Igor Stravinski. Just

go outside, listen for a singing bird, track

down the vocalist, identify it and drink in the

Bird Droppings

Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu

song. Sometimes you’ll need to hear the song

several times before it sinks in and listening

to multiple vocalists can be confusing. Set

yourself a goal, one new song per day. It gets

easier with time, and you can build upon your

audio-repertoire.

Try and place the songs into categories.

American robins have a lilting caroling

song. Cardinals are single note repeaters.

Mockingbirds are changeup artists.

Repeat a phrase several times, then switch to

another phrase. Some songs like Red-winged

Blackbirds “tur-a-ling,” are simple, House

Finch’s hurried warble complex, but often

ends on a rough or discordant note. Rather

than learn the whole song, try and lock away

the opening or closing notes. Bird songs are

commonly complex. Calls are short utterances

and easily assimilated. The chattering

sound of feeding chimney swifts is part of the

summer soundscape, as is the rich burble and

chirps of Purple Martin. Head to Cape May

Point and get an earful.

You say you can’t do this. Well, do you

know the call of Laughing Gull? If so, you

can mast all the rest. The rules don’t change,

only the vocalizations. In no time you’ll be

amazing your bridge partners, pointing out

the song of American Goldfinch coming in

through the window.

There are audio aids. The Cornell website

feature’s hundreds of bird vocalizations, songs

and calls. But for learning your bird vocalizations,

nothing beats real birds in real time.

The best souvenirs add a little sparkle

to your memories. Take home some

Cape May diamonds.

The idea that “we do not remember

days, we remember moments” is a

comfort to families on vacation. Sometimes, a

day at the beach is not a day at the beach. There

may be tears. There may be rain. Someone

may use the red shovel when you specifically

called dibs. And then, when you’re tired and

cranky, there’s a line for the hot dog truck.

Those meltdowns tend to fade from memory.

Instead, we remember when the kite soared,

the boogie board delivered a great ride, or the

toddler squealed with delight as the waves hit

his toes. Cape May diamonds are the perfect

souvenir for these sparkling memories.

Cape May diamonds are not precious in

terms of dollars — a carat is probably worth

about $5 — but these bits of quartz, tumbled

to a shine by their journey down the Delaware

River, have been treasured for centuries. The

Kechemeche people, a Lenni Lenape tribe,

have gathered and gifted these stones as

The Activity Column

Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, hunt for seaglass!

tokens of friendship since the pre-Columbian

era. Some legends imbue the stones with the

power to bring good luck. Tourists continue to

value them as markers of magic days. Couples

who meet on the beach use Cape May diamonds

in their wedding rings. Families collect

them on walks — I’m looking at a baby food

jar, half-full, that my daughters gathered when

they were young. Crafters incorporate them in

jewelry, picture frames, and hair clips. Others

purchase jewelry from Sunset Beach Gifts —

there’s a pretty choker that’s like a Cape May

version of puka shells.

The hunt is part of the magic, and it’s a

great activity for rainy days. Though quartz

is one of the world’s most common minerals,

it can be a challenge to spot the diamonds

among other beach pebbles. You’re likely to

have the most luck at Sunset Beach after a

storm, and preferably not at sunset, when that

beach is crowded. Bring a sand sifter from the

toy box or a mesh strainer from the kitchen.

Scoop down past the top crust of sand to look

for the bits of translucent stone. You won’t

always find them — they blend with the other

stones on the beach. (Some genius parents

allegedly purchase a small bag of diamonds

to seed the beach, but I will deny this if challenged.)

They look like jellybean-shaped sea

glass with a frosted surface. Every stone gains

some shine with a good cleaning with mild

soap, but if you’re looking for real sparkle, try

a rock tumbler — even toy versions work well.

Then, display your diamonds as you see fit.

Dear Answer Lady

My four-year-old son is a product of a

friend who agreed to be the father but only for

the purposes of conceiving. He wants nothing

to do with my son’s upbringing. I don’t need

child support, luckily, so I agreed to that. Now

that my son is getting older, I’m thinking about

school and the future. I think the time will

come when my son has a right to know who his

father is. At the same time, I fear alienating my

wonderful friend. Every time I see him, I am

reminded of why I chose him to be the father

of my child. Afterall, I would not have a son

without him. Am I making too much of this?

What would you do? – Troubled Parent

Dear Troubled

The best thing for now is to include him in

as many family gatherings as possible where

your son will be present. If he suspects you of

imposing your son on him, he’ll say so. On the

other hand, he might come round. It’s worth a

try. The Nature Center of Cape May is a perfect

place for a gathering. Until your friend is ready

to “come out,” your best approach to your son,

once he does start asking questions, is to tell

him the truth — that his father is someone who

truly wanted to help his mother have a child.

Dear Answer Lady

My wedding is next month and my mother,

who does not like my fiancé, is planning on

wearing white to the wedding. I don’t know

much about fashion, but I know that is not

something that is acceptable. My question

is, can I stop her? She’s a bit of a narcissist

anyway and I doubt she would have approved

of anyone I marry, but my fiancé has been onto

her from the get-go. I know it’s going to be

a war forever. For now, though, I’m worried

about the dress. — Worried Groom

Dear Worried

No one can upstage the bride. She is the

star of the show. Anyone who does make such

a futile attempt, will look old and foolish and

mean spirited. You might want to think about

distancing yourself from your mother for the

first year of marriage to give you and your bride

time to settle in. Meanwhile, act as though you

know nothing about her intentions and offer to

take her on a shopping spree. Lead her over to

Victorious and even Free Love, the bridal shop.

It might not work, but it’s worth the effort.

SADIE is a young, 56-pound girl who was

brought to the shelter as a stray. She loves to

be with people and tends to think she is still a

lap dog. Sadie enjoys playing in the yard and

her leash skills are improving. She will need

a slow introduction to cats and other dogs.

Sadie will make a great companion for an

active family that will continue her training.

GEM is a senior girl who came to the shelter

when she was abandoned. She is a loving dog

who loves human interaction. Gem has excellent

leash manners, loves long walks and playing

in the yard. She is calm around other dogs

and needs a slow introduction to cats. Gem is

also good with children and would make an

ideal pet for a family that will love her energy.

ROLLO is an exuberant one-and-a-halfyear-old

boy who came to the shelter as a

stray. He is very smart and quickly learning

new behavior cues. Rollo loves long walks,

and his leash skills are improving. He will

need a slow introduction to other dogs and

cats but will make a great pet for an active

family who is willing to continue his training.

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal

Three beautiful cats from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923

FURNANDO is an eight-year-old boy who

was a stray in Wildwood before coming to

the shelter. He is an independent cat and will

make a very loyal pet. Furnando would be

good in a home with children but prefers a

home without other cats. He is up to date on

all vaccinations and neutered. If interested in

adopting this sweet boy, contact the shelter.

INDIGO was abandoned in a cat carrier and

left at the shelter door with no information.

After time spent at the shelter, Indigo has

gotten a lot better with people. He loves to

play and get attention, but he will sometimes

get overstimulated and swat. Indigo prefers a

home without children and only experienced

cat owners should meet this guy!

BOB is a 10-year-old boy who is on the bigboned

size weighing in at 16 pounds. He is

affectionate and easy going. Bob gets along

with other cats, dogs and children making him

an excellent candidate to blend into your family.

He is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations.

If interested in adopting this boy,

contact the shelter.

This five-year-old 2,542 square foot custom home was

well designed and finished with great appointments.

The open layout features vaulted ceilings and transitions

to a chef’s kitchen with incredible counterspace and

breakfast bar. There is a formal dining room that connects

to the kitchen and living area. There is a first-floor

master bedroom with a walk-in closet. The second floor

offers three bedrooms and a large living area.

All the perfect home finishes are complimented

by the oversized lot (95 x 115). There is room to move

around inside and out. Two blocks to the Delaware Bay

and arguably the world’s best sunsets. This property is

turn-key with nothing to do but enjoy your home and

everything the area has to offer!
