I know we are having a heat wave, and with the big glass windows it’s hard to cool, but it was in the mid 80s inside and I was sleeveless. Still hot… The food was, always delicious, except for the salty seafood platter. The oysters on the half shell with the best part of the meal, says the boyfriend. Our server, Chris, was a delight. You can always count on Chesapeake’s to have quality servers! I would love a new margarita recipe without orange juice, too. Fingers crossed. See you soon, Chesapeake’s!
