Sam's on the Harbor Scituate, MA: 70/351

Decent coffee and fairly tasty food that was served piping hot. Prices were a skosh high.

"Yay!"

Larry's PX Chatham, MA: 68/351

This place was a last minute fill-in, since my first 2 choices were both closed for the season. I should have just waited until one of them opened.

Menu is lame and food was more lame. The homefries were actually horrid: brown potatoes, dry and the flavor was odd....I don't even know how to describe it. Yuck.

Big fat "Nay!"

Cheap food can be done well...eg: Hoagies

Here, it's lame & lousy...."Nay!"

Patty's Place Norton, MA: 67/351

"Nay"....how's that for short & simple?

Early Bird II Kingston, MA: 66/351....my number jumped, I remembered a place in Stoughton.

Cute, homey place with free WiFi...bonus point.

Food was yummy. Decent coffee. Had hash eggs Bene. The Hollandaise sauce was thick & tasty. The hash is home made and delicious. They use red bliss potatoes for the homefries. Only critique is the temp of homefries, they need to be hot with the temp even throughout.

If you're not from the area, maybe try this place on the way to/from Cape Cod. It's a quick jump off of Rt.3 @ exit 9. Quality food without the Cape price.

Big "Yay!"

Dino's Harwichport, MA: 64/351

I should have walked away when I saw it was "Cash Only"....and from now on, unless there is no choice in a particular city/town, I will not eat in a cash only establishment.

Food was lame to lousy. Cornbeef hash straight from the can style. Bland Hollandaise sauce.

Now, let's discuss the "famous" homefries. Dino himself told me the story of how "no-one else cooks 'em like we do and people love 'em". Yikes! Brown potatoes, boiled, then sliced thin (scallop style..???), then cooked on the grill in nothing except butter. Dino says "they get their taste from the butter, I don't add any salt". Call me crazy and I'm sure Dino won't like my opinion....but, YUCK! Bland & dry.

Big "Nay!"

Pumpernickels Fairhaven, MA 63/351
I realise it's early, but, it was to cold. The home made corn beef hash was pretty good. Unfortunately everything else was lousy. Zero taste in the Hollandaise sauce. Home fries were brown potatoes, dry & bland.

"Nay!"

Westbury Farms Walpole, MA: 62/351

They used red bliss potatoes for the homefries, but, dry & bland.

"Nay!"

Mel's Diner Raynham, MA: 61/351
I said in the beginning that I'd keep this blog simple & short.

So, despite home style cornbeef hash, the homefries were lousy.

"Nay!"
