Even Chowder Snobs Admit This Plymouth Restaurant Serves The Best Bowl In Town

Guy Fieri called this clam chowder one of his favorites on national TV. That’s a bold endorsement for a bowl of soup sitting right beside a busy harbor. The chowder shows up in a bread bowl if you ask. It also leaves in pints, quarts, and even full gallons.

The 8 Cape Cod, Massachusetts Italian Spots Where The Sandwiches Are Worth The Trip

One Italian market on the Cape names some of its sandwiches after neighborhood dogs. I love that detail more than I can explain. The sandwich called Suede stacks two kinds of prosciutto with Taleggio cheese and orange fig spread on ciabatta. Elsewhere, a cheesemaker who missed fresh mozzarella from home started making her own on an island.

Minks, rats and a Cape Cod legend

Driving past a neighborhood patch of brush and wetlands, I watched as a critter, sleek and dark with a long tail, slid across the road. My brain tried to register similar animals I’ve seen on Cape Cod. But It was too small to be a fisher. And it was too far from significant water to be an otter.

Oprah made this Cape Cod chicken pie famous. Here’s where to get it for Thanksgiving

Thank goodness for the things ― like Thanksgiving pies on Cape Cod ― that rarely change. Nationally known Centerville Pie Company still makes the chicken pie that Oprah Winfrey so loved . You can easily send it to friends or relatives because that rich chicken pie and other Centerville Pie flavors are available on the gourmet food site GoldBelly.com /. Back in 2009, Centerville Pie Company's owners Laurie Bowen and Kristin Broadley dropped off a couple of pies to Oprah, when she was on Cape Cod for Eunice Kennedy Shriver’s funeral . At first, Oprah’s broadcast company Harpo denied the report, inciting a “pie-gate” of local media buzz, until Oprah herself confirmed the pie delivery and said she loved them. The company’s signature chicken pie, with hand-pulled white and dark chicken covered in gravy (no vegetables, thank you), made it into Oprah’s list of “Favorite Things” in 2009 and again in 2012 and 2017. The then-10-person Centerville Pie Company found itself in the national limelight. In 2012, Bowen and Broadley flew 60 frozen chicken pies to the Golden Globes and served them to celebrities. Here's where to find those famous pies and eight more pie-makers on Cape Cod, as Thanksgiving
