in the area. But you can get a jump 

on it by reading online every Tuesday 

morning! We also operate a retail store

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

today! Save 10% on your first order: SAVE10 

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 

An Open Mic Format 

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 

Mon-Thu 10am-9pm, 

Park Swizzle and that was his favorite. Nicole switched to wine after

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 

the Bayshore Stroller (dude who appears to 

spend all his time just walking the length of

be a jarring experience. But the requests. (Nice meeting you!) 

underlying point here is; I’m back Poor Unsuspecting Fool of 

at the gym. One whole week now. 

I’ve got 227 days to lose 42 lbs, 

or I’ll have to make good on a 

promise that no one wants me 

to make good on (singing New 

Year’s Eve in a thong if I don’t get 

under 200). 

RIP of the Week To: My 

shed. She’d been a crumbling 

mess for quite some time now 

but the 17-day nor-easter we just 

endured was too much to withstand 

and her door was literally 

blown off, along with part of a 

wall. And most of her guts. My 

lawnmower blade is going to take 

a beating this week… 

Which reminds me; last week 

I picked up a Kobalt battery-powered 

hedge clipper to go along 

with my Kobalt lawn mower 

and weed whacker. You can ask 

my son Owen, I had about a 

five-minute staring contest with 

the chainsaw before leaving with 

the clippers. So my chances of 

the Week: Some poor soul asked 

my Tuesday night wing man, 

Charlie “Cosmic Charlie” Wigo if 

he knew any Pink Floyd. Charlie 

scoffed, played 45 minutes of 

Pink Floyd songs, put his lips on 

the mic and answered, “Yes.” 

I watched the first season of 

Kevin Can Fxck Himself on AMC 

(we’re paying for the AMC app 

for as long as it takes Better Call 

Saul to wrap up, which is going 

on a break after its mid-season 

finale next week and, pardon my 

rant, but when did mid-season 

finales even become a thing? 

I remember the good old days 

when a show was on for 22 weeks 

and then it wasn’t, now excuse 

me while I shake my fist at this 

cloud) and it’s pretty good and 

uses an idea I’d been trying to sell 

for 20 years; the comedy scenes 

are filmed like a sitcom, the dramatic 

scenes are shot on film. If I 

could get one person to listen to 

accidentally maiming myself or me one time I could make a lot

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.

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.

Tony, Lauren 

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.

simply sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee and contemplate 

the wisdom herein. 

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.

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.
