Omnivore

My sister visited from the Midwest this summer and was amazed at the variety of great restaurants around here, contrasting them to the slim pickings in her town. And she is absolutely right: in the past few weeks I've eaten at the Half-Moon, the Four Dogs, the Stottsville Inn and the Whip, and had wonderful meals at each of them. Naturally, I e-mailed her links to the menus and gave full descriptions of the wild boar and mushroom chili, the mussel bisque, the raw Wellfleet oysters, the artisanal gin, and so forth. Whatever it takes to lure her back!
