We visit The Rose and Crown
in Lewes, Delaware. The O'Hare family, one
with a decidedly solid Irish heritage, re-establishes a popular pub with
an English flare near the coast of Delaware where the beaches are not
quite so frantic, the area is rich in history and the repasts
delectable herein. Why did an Irishman along with his partner, the
locally renowned Chef, Jay Caputo, keep the Anglophile character? It
could have something to do with the spirit of detente established around
here during the War of 1812. You'll have to read the article to
understand what we mean.
