Belgian Breakfast at the Chatterbox (Ninth Street and Central Avenue) in Ocean City, NJ.

To the Editor:

A while back, I wrote a letter to OCNJ Daily saying how I was going to increase my support of Ocean City businesses by sitting down and eating a meal at an Ocean City restaurant every other Friday — in addition to my normal level of support of area businesses.

We are approaching another “Dine Out Friday,” my friends, which of course begs the question: Where are you eating Friday?

So far, I have had penne and chicken at Nonna’s Trattoria, French toast at Sunrise Café, a Philly roast beef sandwich at Varsity Inn, eggs benedict at Ready’s Coffee Shop and Restaurant, chicken saltimbocca at Vittorio’s Italian Restaurant, a roast beef sandwich at Arlene’s on Asbury, the Sunrise Breakfast at Sunrise Café, the Teriyaki salmon steak at Jay’s Crab Shack, the Philly cheeseburger at the Varsity Inn (that was supposed to be a trip to the OC Surf Cafe, but they were temporarily closed at the time), the Coal Miner’s Bliss from Frankie’s by the Bay, Pancakes & Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Coffee from Jon & Pattie’s, and the Belgian Breakfast at the Chatterbox.

I’ve been busier than normal lately and haven’t been able to get out to lunch in town. And I love lunch, it definitely makes it onto of my “Top 3 Meals of the Day” list. So I’m going to have lunch at the OC Surf Cafe tomorrow and let the surf and sand motif remind me that although it may not feel like it, beach weather is (eventually) coming.
