BEACH & PERRY, CAPE MAY<br />
Page 12 EXIT ZERO May 30, 2024<br />
Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or,<br />
maybe even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent<br />
dining establishments. Then we give you the skinny on<br />
what we ate, what we talked about (or some of what we talked<br />
about), who spat their drink from laughing too hard, who served<br />
us, who we bumped into and, you know, the general lay of the land.<br />
The place: Mayer’s Tavern, an iconic eatery located on the corner of<br />
3rd Avenue and Wilson Drive on the Cape May harborfront.<br />
The vibe: Back in the day, Mayer’s was renowned as a dive bar<br />
where sometimes-rowdy fishermen and sometimes-rowdy locals<br />
would go to drink cheap beer and let off some steam. It was, in other<br />
words, the closest little Cape May got to the Wild West. But, damn,<br />
those fried scallops were so good that even non-rowdy folks would<br />
still head off the beaten track to brave the rowdy elements and enjoy<br />
a legendary Cape May dish. In 2018, the Laudeman family (who own<br />
the nearby Lobster House) took it over and reopened Mayer’s, after a<br />
clever, thoughtful renovation that retained the harborfront character,<br />
while seriously sprucing up the decor and the menu.<br />
The drinks: The beers may not be as cheap as they once were, but<br />
you can still drain a cold Bud or Coors for a reasonable $5. For the more<br />
crafty-minded, there’s half-a-dozen craft beers on tap. A well-curated<br />
wine list includes several of the hot orange varieties (not hot to<br />
the touch, obviously). For one of us, though, the highlight of the drinks<br />
menu is always the Sardinian Sunset, which is just a nice name for a<br />
classic Negroni. They do it right at Mayer’s.<br />
The food: Those famous scallops are still on the menu, and they’re<br />
still unmissable. Other highlights are the gigantic black kale salad, an<br />
always-excellent cheeseburger and the yogurt-marinated chicken.<br />
Truth be told, chicken isn’t something us cool cats often order for an<br />
entrée, but the Mayer’s offering is among the best on the island.<br />
Celebrity sighting: Sitting at the next table were Tony Lombardi<br />
and Theresa McGlade, the owners of Backstreet in West Cape May.<br />
Those guys know good food, so that’s always a good sign. They’re totally<br />
worth a visit as well, by the way. :-)<br />
The takeaway: Right now, Mayer’s is closed Monday and Tuesday.<br />
But they are planning on adding Monday back into the rotation sometime<br />
this summer.

Bird Droppings<br />
Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu<br />
For a columnist whose beat is bird<br />
watching in Cape May, there is never<br />
any shortage of copy. But May at the<br />
“Migration Mainline” is challenging.<br />
With spring migration at its peak and<br />
multiple events on the schedule, a birder needs<br />
48 hours in a day and a two-week extension.<br />
Spring migration began in February with the<br />
first northbound waterfowl and will wind<br />
down in June when the last of the northbound<br />
shorebirds straggle through. Speaking of<br />
shorebirds, the International Team of shorebird<br />
banders is once again assembled on the<br />
Bayshore, netting, weighing and tagging the<br />
hosts of northbound Red Knot whose dependence<br />
upon the eggs of the horseshoe eggs is<br />
firmly established. Cape May is the crucial<br />
refueling depot for the birds between South<br />
America and the Canadian Arctic. This year’s<br />
knot numbers are up, the best showing in<br />
years and a tribute to the conservation efforts<br />
that safeguarded breeding crabs.<br />
But, there’s more. The New Jersey<br />
Audubon’s annual spring Birding Festival has<br />
come and gone. So, too, the 41st World Series<br />
in which 90 teams vied to tally the most bird<br />
species in New Jersey in a 24-hour period.<br />
This year, teams from Maryland and Cornell<br />
tied with 213 species. Not bad.<br />
And still more… On May 17 a Common<br />
Swift, a resident of Europe and Asia was<br />
recorded in the skies over Cape May. Larger<br />
than our native Chimney Swift and having<br />
a forked, not a blunt tail, the bird could not<br />
escape the net of birding skills cast by local<br />
birders. Rarities like this are periodic and<br />
unpredictable but always result in a boost<br />
to the economy. Seeing a Common Swift in<br />
North America is akin to sinking the winning<br />
shot at the NCAA tournament.<br />
But my big news is the two pairs of starlings<br />
nesting in the eves of the shed in our<br />
yard. One pair, busy discarding fecal sacks,<br />
has young in the nest. The other still carrying<br />
nesting material into the nest. The disparity<br />
fascinates me, as does the different partiality<br />
accorded the starling and the swift. Both are<br />
Old World species. But the swift is celebrated,<br />
and the starling is disdained. Imported into<br />
the US in 1890 by a Shakespeare zealot who<br />
recalled Hotspur’s celebration of the bird in<br />
Henry IV part 1, concluded North America<br />
would be enriched by the birds presence — a<br />
lapse in judgement that resulted in the cavity<br />
nesting birds spread across the continent. So<br />
why is the nesting of starlings newsworthy?<br />
I’m an equal opportunity observer and herald<br />
from immigrant stock myself.<br />

Who is a fan of “who?” No, no,<br />
not the rock band, but Dr. Who, a<br />
show that’s been around as long<br />
as the rock band but with way<br />
more changes. Dr. Who wasn’t a<br />
favorite of mine growing up. By the time I<br />
started watching, they were on perhaps their<br />
fourth or fifth of what has now become 15<br />
actors who played the part.<br />
For those who don’t know, Dr. Who is a<br />
character traveling randomly through time<br />
and space (more specifically, the universe)<br />
and gets into shenanigans wherever (or<br />
whenever) the time/space machine lands. The<br />
show is more aligned with Star Trek than Star<br />
Wars because it’s less epic than episodic. It<br />
started in 1963 and has taken some breaks. Up<br />
until recent years, the lead actor has always<br />
been a white male. That ended in 2017 when<br />
Jodie Whittaker became the first female to<br />
play the lead. She was the 12th lead in the role.<br />
The new incarnation of the show stars<br />
its first black lead, Ncuti Gatwa. He travels<br />
in his vessel called TARDIS (stands for “Time<br />
The Movie Column<br />
By arts columnist Tom Sims<br />
and Relative Dimension in Space”), which<br />
looks like a police phone booth you’d find in<br />
London. Gatwa’s Dr. Who is a spot-on character.<br />
He is generally unshaken by sharp turns<br />
of events, and he appears to be in control no<br />
matter how desperate the situation becomes.<br />
The new episodes, which are produced by<br />
the BBC and appear on Disney+, are not what<br />
I remember from the original. There is more<br />
poignant storytelling and observations that I<br />
suppose the Brits would call “brilliant.” Of the<br />
four shows so far, three truly resonated. The<br />
fourth I’ll chalk up to “darn, sometimes I just<br />
don’t understand everything British.”<br />
Gatwa is absolutely cheeky in the role<br />
(ooh, was that TOO British?). He lets the<br />
audience decipher the deeper meaning behind<br />
the story before he puts it into perspective.<br />
The stories are cool, the cast is diverse, and in<br />
the end you’re left with a much more enriching<br />
experience than I ever had watching in<br />
the past.<br />
Russell T. Davies is a Welsh screenwriter<br />
and producer who worked on the 2005 revival<br />
of the series and this reboot. He also created<br />
the popular Queer as Folk and others. He was<br />
only a few months old when Dr. Who first aired<br />
in 1963, yet he continues the legacy nicely.<br />
It’s not lost on me that lately I’ve been<br />
reviewing sci-fi and end-of-the-world shows<br />
and movies. What can I say? Other offerings<br />
look long and boring. I’d like your opinion on<br />
what’s cool in any category that’s not fantasy.<br />

The Activity Column<br />
Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, Cape May Restaurant Week<br />
Dining out is one of life’s treats. It’s<br />
a luxury to sit and be served. Not<br />
only do you not have to cook the<br />
food, you don’t have to procure the<br />
ingredients or clean up. You can<br />
choose, on a whim, a dessert that takes hours<br />
to prepare. Your companions are likely to be<br />
on their best behavior, and you can enjoy your<br />
after-dinner coffee without thinking about<br />
loading the dishwasher or wrapping leftovers.<br />
In Cape May, where we are lucky to have many<br />
great restaurants, it’s easy to forget that only<br />
about 20 percent of Americans get to eat out<br />
in a given year. Restaurant Week is a great<br />
time to boost that number.<br />
Cape May’s runs from June 2 to 9, with<br />
participating restaurants offering fixed-price<br />
menus designed to highlight their specialties.<br />
It’s a good deal for regular customers,<br />
and it offers a chance for new customers<br />
to venture out of their comfort zones. My<br />
favorite example is a newly adult friend who<br />
is using Restaurant Week as an excuse to<br />
finally taste the dish behind his favorite child-<br />
hood movie — Ratatouille. Maison Bleu Bistro,<br />
at 653 Washington Street, is offering Pasta<br />
Ratatouille on its $55 menu. My friend has<br />
avoided it thus far not because he fears he<br />
won’t like it, but because his inner child is<br />
convinced it merits a bit of atmosphere and<br />
the je ne sais quoi that usually means he can’t<br />
afford the restaurant. With the set price, you<br />
know how your meal fits into your budget.<br />
Other diners appreciate events like<br />
Restaurant Week because chefs tend to show<br />
off a little, with dishes like lollipop lamb chops<br />
at Backstreet Simply Delicious, the bourbon<br />
glazed sweet potato at the Chalfonte, or truffle<br />
mac and cheese at Pier House. These are<br />
dishes you might be able to make for yourself,<br />
but they are tricky enough to give you pause.<br />
Timing lamb is an art, and if I’m cooking<br />
flounder at home, I’m not topping it with lobster<br />
as the Lobster House does. In addition,<br />
the chefs make creative use of simple ingredients.<br />
It feels indulgent to let Union Park<br />
remind me that I love beet salad, to sample the<br />
Washington Inn’s take on avocado toast, or to<br />
introduce a teen to curry at Exit Zero.<br />
Most participating restaurants have<br />
their special, fixed price Restaurant Week<br />
menus posted online at cmrestaurantweek.<br />
com. Generally, they include an appetizer,<br />
entree, and dessert. Beverages, tax, and gratuity<br />
are not included, except where noted.<br />
Reservations are suggested. And, if you miss<br />
Restaurant Week, look out for early bird discounts<br />
throughout the summer.<br />

The Answer Lady invites inquiries from<br />
gentle readers on all manner of relationship<br />
quandaries, matters of the<br />
heart and ethics. If you’d like to send<br />
a query, write to info@exitzero.us. Or,<br />
simply sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee and contemplate<br />
the wisdom herein.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
Please help. My father is impossible to<br />
please and I want this Father’s Day to be special.<br />
He is a gourmand and a lover of music, but<br />
he is a bit of a snob. I want this Father’s Day to<br />
be unlike the usual level of the obligatory tie<br />
and bottle of Scotch. My brother and I both<br />
will be leaving for California for college in the<br />
fall. It is unlikely we will be back next summer<br />
because there are internships involved in our<br />
majors. — Stuck Son<br />
Dear Stuck<br />
Fear not, the Answer Lady has the answer.<br />
Dinner and a show. So many choices for the<br />
gourmand — among them, the Ebbitt Room,<br />
SeaSalt or Ocean 7. Or PSI. Then, before dessert,<br />
present him with a subscription to the<br />
The Answer Lady<br />
Wise answers to perplexing questions<br />
Cape May Music Festival. Dinner will, no<br />
doubt, be memorable, but the beauty of the<br />
Music Festival, sponsored by MAC, is that it<br />
lasts for four weeks and appeals to a range of<br />
tastes — from classical to jazz. He will remember<br />
you both as he sits and listens. And — if you<br />
can afford it — you and your brother might join<br />
your dad. That might please him even more.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
A co-worker is very enamored with me<br />
and has asked me out many times. He is the<br />
nicest guy. We share the same sense of humor<br />
and love the same restaurants, but he’s 35 years<br />
younger than me. I have always had a thing<br />
for younger men, but this may be too great a<br />
span. Plus, my last relationship ended after 10<br />
years, when he woke up and realized I had a few<br />
birthdays on him. I’d rather avoid that reality<br />
check. Still, I really like him, and he really likes<br />
me. Maybe I should fix him up with someone<br />
younger. What do you think? — MILF<br />
Dear MILF<br />
First of all, you are not a MILF. You are<br />
GILF. Secondly, there’s a lot more going on<br />
here. Do you really want to put yourself in<br />
the middle of it? Your enamored young man<br />
sounds very vulnerable. Have a chat with him<br />
about how great a friendship would be and<br />
how disastrous a relationship would be. Even<br />
if you were to act on this, you work together.<br />
Awkward! Suggest a night of fun and games at<br />
Morey’s Pier. Enjoy an evening of rides, games<br />
and hot dogs. As to your finding him a mate —<br />
come on. You are older and wiser. Act like it.<br />

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal<br />
Three beautiful dogs from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
XENA is a powerful and playful American<br />
Bulldog who came to the shelter when her<br />
owner could no longer care for her. She loves<br />
to be with people and needs a refresher on<br />
leash walking with her strong and fast pace.<br />
Xena’s previous owner claimed she lived with<br />
children, but it would be best to have her in a<br />
home with older children.<br />
CARAMEL came to the shelter when her<br />
owner could no longer care for her. She is a<br />
sweet and gentle soul who is looking for a<br />
family to show her the love she deserves. Caramel<br />
is a bit nervous who looks to her human<br />
for guidance. She needs a slow introduction to<br />
dogs and cats, but is good with children. Caramel<br />
would make a wonderful companion.<br />
DARLA is a sweet girl who loves to be with<br />
people and is eager to spend time with her<br />
humans. Her family loved her but could no<br />
longer take care of her. She is great with children<br />
and has a gentle demeanor, but lots of<br />
energy. Darla is brushing up on her manners<br />
and leash skills. She would be best with a slow<br />
introduction to dogs and cats.<br />

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal<br />
Three beautiful cats from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
GEMMA came to the shelter from a hoarding<br />
situation. She is a 17-year-old indoor cat<br />
who is very afraid, but sweet when you pet her.<br />
Gemma will need time to adjust, and a quiet<br />
home will suit her best with no other dogs or<br />
children. She needs a warm, loving home that<br />
she can explore and feel safe. If Interested in<br />
this girl, contact the shelter.<br />
COCONUT is an older cat looking for a new<br />
lease on life. After four years in a trailer park<br />
begging for food, he’s ready to be in a loving<br />
home. Coconut had a rough few years and<br />
tested light positive for FIV. He is fully vetted<br />
and healthy. Coconut will need a slow introduction<br />
and time to adjust in a new home but<br />
will be just fine after some time.<br />
LYNXIE is a 16-year-old girl who has lived in<br />
two different homes and is now at the shelter<br />
awaiting adoption. She doesn’t like being<br />
caged, but her previous owner says she’s very<br />
friendly, loves kids and dogs and enjoys belly<br />
rubs. The owner was devastated to give her up<br />
but has high hopes for this wonderful cat to<br />
find a new loving home.<br />
