On our first full day in Cape Cod, my husband surprised me and my friend Anne with a morning at the spa: pedicures and massages! Afterwards we were so relaxed that we would have been perfectly content to go back to the house and take a nap. But we didn't.
Instead we took a walk on the beach, and when we finally couldn't stand the biting wind anymore, we walked through Chatham, MA. Chatham's Main Street is lined with adorable shops: jewelry and stationery stores, kitchen gadgets and housewares stores, and even a Life Is Good store. It's exactly what you would picture in your mind if you heard "quaint New England town."
For lunch we found a tavern on Main Street that appeared to be popular with both tourists and locals alike. Their menu featured everything from fish & chips, crab cakes, and calamari, to a roast beef sandwich, cheeseburger, and chicken fingers. We opted for the seafood.
What I Ate:
- 1/2 dozen raw native oysters on the half shell
- Lobster bisque: Rich sherry cream soup with lobster meat & brandy - perfect for a chilly late fall afternoon
- Sam Adams Octoberfest beer - ditto
