During a week at the beach, I had my Facebook friends begging for mercy. Each day, I posted the objects of my gluttony: clams, shrimp and fish lolling in a roasted tomato broth; a glistening egg, drizzled with lemon-parsley vinaigrette, atop a raft of asparagus; and a plump rabbit leg, resting near homemade fettuccine. And that’s just to start.
The high number of comments under each photo was to be expected. Rehoboth Beach is arguably Delaware’s culinary capital. But on my calorie-laden visit, three spots stood out. Call them the new, the redo and the tried-and-true.
