Where to begin?? So much to tell!!
Let's start with restaurant news. The Local Buzz has become friends with the Rehoboth Foodie, Bob Yesbek, so it's great fun to see which of us can get the scoop on new eateries first! From Bob I learned that the Broadkill Boathouse is now open in Milton in the former Iguana Grill space (right on the water!) Friends who were there opening night said the food was good and quite reasonable 684-2628. Bob's site also reported that Matt's Fish Camp is now open (just south of the Indian River Bridge 539-CAMP. Also - check out "Grilled Cheese and Beyond" - my newest column on Bob's site, RehobothFoodie. It's all about vegetarian options at area restaurants.
Shag (which had a brief moment as the Atlantic Jazz Yard) will become Cypress, featuring New Orleans style cuisine (Wilmington Avenue). Saladworks is coming to the Shoppes of Camelot in the former Movie Gallery space (thanks Brittany D). No final word on our Panera yet ... you'll know as soon as I do!

Did you know that our very own Evolution Rise Up Stout made the final four in the Washington Post Beer Madness competition? (The Evolution Craft Brewing Company is located in Delmar, Delaware) I'm just so proud!
When I lived in the DC area, there was a cool men's store named Universal Gear. They have a second shop in New York City and as I mentioned in the last issue, they will soon open a third store HERE on Baltimore Avenue. I mean, how cool is THAT when a store with locations in DC and NYC opens in Rehoboth Beach? I'm telling you people, we are ON THE MAP!
East of Maui Surf Shop is opening a second location in Lewes near the Bay (sometime in July). Del Sol has moved to a new location next to Dos Locos.
