Of course, there's no reason why we can't pretend we're on a vacation of sorts too, and indulge in some of the temptations I discovered this weekend at the Delaware beaches.
After having taken approximately 3,256 strolls down Baltimore Avenue in my lifetime, I finally discovered Lori’s Oy Vey Café (39 Baltimore Ave.), tucked wayyyy in the back of what's called "The Courtyard." From your perch on one of the outdoor tables, you get a serene and cozy view of the passing people, along with one of owner Lori Kline's deliciously creative sandwiches.
I attacked the "Oy Vey" -- three ounces of smoked salmon topped with bacon, lettuce, tomato, capers and cream cheese, served on chewy French bread ($8.50). Bagels also get prime treatment here, whether it's with silken smoked salmon, or one of Lori's nicely vibrant vegetarian creations. Here are a couple that perked my interest (available on your choice of bread):
Cool as a Cucumber...Garlic and olive cream cheese topped with crispy-cool cukes and tomatoes (sprouts and red onion upon request) $5.50That "award-winning" chicken salad also sounds like a must-try, chocked as it is with blue cheese, toasted almonds and tart apples.
Brie a la Val...Melted Brie cheese topped w/ toasted almonds, Granny Smith apples and a dab of honey mustard; served on French bread. $5.50
