Summer Dining "Al Fresco"

There are many spots to dine outdoors during the summer months-   several on the water, which are my favorite spots.
Two imparticular     - one on the south shore & one on the north shore & since I was      recently at both    this week, I thought it was worth mentioning.

In Bayville,   Walls Wharf. This is a little place located about 100 yards past Crescent Beach CLub & Catering Hall. It has  tables both on the deck & directly on the beach.      A great place to view the sunset!  While not "gourmet" fare, it is    good food- very fresh seafood, fun apps  of raw or baked clams and oysters,  a goat cheese & lobster pizzette,   etc  and a great view & fun spot to have   lunch or dinner  outdoors.

Next,      is the Parkside Cafe, located in Seaford- A tricky spot to find as it sort of hidden away in a residential     neighborhood, but you can google it.  It has a lovely         dining room  but my favorite is the outdoor deck,  overlooking the water & watching all the boats   go by. There is a     nice little sitting area with a small firepit as you have drinks & wait for your table.  The menu is    really nice-     they always have interesting specials, great apps including  a hot     & spicy screaming shrimp on brushcetta,    three types of calamari, and fabulous crab cakes- no filler- all  lump crabmeat- and more-  GREAT!
Dinner entrees are really varied, with steaks,   fish & chicken, and of course, lots of seafood  specials & a few    really nice pasta  dishes .
Usually we are too full for dessert, but they have a lovely   menu for that as well.

Worth the ride!
