Guidebook for Surf City
Food Scene
I've been all over the world and these are by far THE best crab cakes in the WORLD. (make sure you get the Jumbo lump ones!) and prepare for a long wait, they don't take reservations, so I suggest putting your name down and going shopping at faria's or nearby stores!

Awesome people and delicious ice cream! the big dipper used to be my favorite place but lately their ice cream hasn't been as good... I'm a cookies N cream fan and I like when a good amount of oreo is in the ice cream...whereas big dippers is mostly just vanilla and no oreos. So save the hassle of waiting on the long lines at big dipper and go to scoop city! People are great and they even take your photo and hang it on their wall!

If you want an amazing meal but a bit on the pricey end then you must go to yellowfin. It is one of my favorite places on the island. Everything on the menu is absolutely delicious!

If you're a huge seafood fanatic like me, then you MUST go to pinky's. Pinky's has everything extremely fresh and you get to go pick out what you want then order it and either take it home with you or sit outside and enjoy the LBI summer nights!

These are the worlds greatest buffalo wings. You must go here at least once to try them. They have a variety of different sauces that go from mild to ludicrous. "Man vs. Food" came here to try the ludicrous wings... I personally don't recommend to get wings THAT hot, but then again you can say you ate them.

Must go to the famous Scojo's! It's open all year round and the owners are amazing people. The food is delicious and the breakfast is definitely my favorite.
