"Before calling it a day at Willow Creek Winery & Farm, don’t forget to stop by the whimsical Alice in Wonderland Garden there.

"For decadent breakfasts, the Mad Batter is the name to know in Cape May. Highlights include tucking into pillowy buttermilk pancakes studded with local New Jersey blueberries or a Chesapeake Bay Benedict with crabmeat, poached eggs, and hollandaise while sitting on the sunny porch."

"Built in 1846, the stately home at the north end of town became an inn in 1940, but didn’t come into its own as a dining destination until the Craig family bought it in 1979. Mimi Wood, its chef since the mid-’90s, keeps the largely American menu modern, with several gluten-free and one vegan option, and upscale, as befits the setting. The inn’s ace in the hole just might be its wine list, by far the most extensive in Cape May.801 Washington Street, 609-884-5697"

"My sister’s favorite restaurant in Rehoboth Beach, Salt Air is a must for fresh seafood.

The Blue Pig Tavern has been recognized by the 2019 OpenTable Diners’ Choice Awards for a variety of awards, including “best American restaurants” and “great for lunch” among others."

"Named for an 1800s gambling parlor in the venerable Congress Hall Hotel, the Blue Pig serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch in a light-filled rustic dining room augmented with patio seating.
