Things got better when I stopped for a bite for lunch and found an old pizza chain that I haven't been to since high school: Bertucci's! I had a Margherita Pizza which was awesome.
This is a dark picture of the plate - it was amazing! |
I headed down to New Bedford, MA to check in to my hotel then drove over to the Cape where I had to work for a few hours. After work, I headed to a restaurant that I had visited last year: The Dolphin Restaurant. I had baked sea scallops topped with crab meat and Parmesan crust - needless to say it was absolutely amazing. There's nothing better than fresh New England seafood! For anyone in that area, here's the address:
Dolphin Restaurant
3250 Main Street
Barnstable, MA 02630
After dinner I drove back over to New Bedford and finally had a chance to relax - something I haven't been able to do the last few days. For me, one of the best ways to relax is to enjoy a great cigar, especially after such a delicious meal.
I've brought along a few other cigars: Rocky Patel 1961 (I've heard this is one of RP's strongest cigars), Gurkha European Selection Maduro (thanks to my buddy Alan), and a Torano Exodus 1959 (courtesy of my friend Hoss who knows a good Torano rep. - this is another one of my favorite smokes). I'll hopefully have the chance to enjoy some of these over the next couple weeks and will be sure to let you know how they are.
