Yup, word that there was a pod of orca in the Bay today flew around HMSC like wildfire. Not a great day to be a pinniped calf in Yaquina Bay, though.

And you really do want to eat locally even though, as you all know,  PNWMAS potlucks are not to be missed. Hopefully, next year we'll have more agreeable grilling conditions and we can have the potluck and fish right out of the water. 🍴!

Local Ocean is on the eastern bayfront and is great. One of the best kitchens in town. Can also recommend South Beach Fish Market close to HMSC at the south end of the bridge. Tempura fresh catch and some house-smoked delicacies. I'd go for the salmon candy at this joint as a side to your entree. Rustic and coastal but very fresh catch.

For linen and a higher ticket average, check out Clearwater, also on the bayfront and also a respectable kitchen.

If you want to watch the wind and waves thrash the shore from your table, Georgie's is on the ocean side. Food and kitchen are decent and it's next to a hotel right on the shore if you're coming down for an overnight. High tide is right at dinnertime and this'd be a good place to order an extra round or two and watch the waves.

For breakfast the next morning, you really should plan on going to La Maison, just off 101 to the east. Small green house with a double handful of tables. You really can't go wrong on this menu. Oh yeah, homemade English muffins..........

I'll see you folks at 12!

 

 

 

 

 

We are not staying the night for breakfast but lunch sounds delightful somewhere

We were there, but unfortunately didn't make the tour. Little one had and accident and Dad forgot the bag with the spare clothes. Had to pivot and run to the store and by the time we finished it was already past 1.  Next time!
