Shooting My Universe

Did You Know? (Leftovers)

Posted on by God's Morning

That there were actually leftovers from this Sunday’s Mug Up?  Not because there wasn’t a good turnout, or the food wasn’t great (Paul’s smoked bluefish pate is really awesome, my deviled eggs aren’t half bad, and the blueberry coffeecake was delish), but because Ed Collard was among the missing.  The comfy chair at the head of the table sat empty, and we really missed not having him and his healthy appetite there.  He and his wife were stylin on a brunch cruise around Boston Harbor on the Odessa – a Father’s Day gift from his kids.  Some old favorites and some new people came by.  Pete Chamberlain arrived by water, now that he’s gotten his boat fixed.  Artist, Dixie Clark and her grandson, Tyler joined us.  She lives on a boat here in the summer and Tyler was visiting her and really enjoying hanging with cool grams at the marina.  Lou was passing by on her bicycle, and we lured her in for some Rocky Neck hospitality.  Ben MacAdam, who is exhibiting his paintings at the Madfish Gallery, G5 stopped in with his friend.  The Lusters were in the house, and Marty had a brand new very cool looking camera he was trying out for the first time.  And of course Paul Morrison was there, without R. Duck – I think she was home with the chicks.  Next Mug Up will be Sunday, July 17, 10:00 am.  Hopefully Ed will be back, and maybe Joey and Paulie Walnuts can free themselves up and come over for a little Cup-A-Jo and visit too.  I’m told that I make very good coffee.

7th Wave Restaurant Review From A Completely Impartial Kim Smith

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Sunday night my husband and I tried a new restaurant (new for us, that is), the 7th Wave in Rockport on Tuna Wharf. Our son Alex is cooking there this summer. The hostess was lovely and Talia, one of the owners, greeted us at the front desk. We had made a reservation for 7:00 and were seated immediately on the upper deck, with the stunning view of Rockport Harbor and beyond.

The atmosphere is lively, relaxed, and entirely kid-and family-friendly. The waitstaff was hardworking and alot of fun and our food came along very quickly, no waiting for anything, despite the fact that it was a full house.

Our son was working the grill, so we restricted ourselves to grilled items only. I had the surf (super delicious grilled shrimp) and turf (petite filet, cooked to perfection) and Tom, the fantastic grilled tuna. I am usually more of a chowder and lobster person and can’t wait to go again and try more items on the menu. The lobster rolls and lobster salads passing by our table were heaped high with lobster meat and the chowder looked creamy and hearty. Elaine, mother of Talia, and owner, stopped by our table to say hello and to chat. It’s a family-owned business and the restaurant is named the 7th Wave because of their seven family members. The Kahn family opened their doors in June 2009 and they had their busiest night ever, the Saturday night before we ate dinner there. It was great to hear about their thriving business and we are looking forward to many return visits! The menu and hours of operation are posted on their website. 7th Wave Restaurant, 7 Tuna Wharf, Rockport.
