Seacrets

Rating:★★★★
Category:Restaurants
Cuisine: Caribbean
Location:Ocean City, MD
I don't normally go to "night spots", but this on the "don't miss this" list, so when my sister suggested Seacrets for dinner, I wanted to go. First, they start charging a "cover charge" at 5:00 pm for dinner. I can understand charging a cover at 8:00 for the bar & band, but at 5:00? I guess they do it because they can, and people probably come for dinner, then stay for the night life. Too many drunk people, but there were a lot of bouncers called "peace police" Beyond that, I enjoyed the place. Dining is outdoors on the sand, with tropical decor, palm trees, etc. There is even a dining on the water section. The food was very good. My sister suggested that if we go again, the lunch atmosphere is much better.

Crown

I was away for the weekend when the molar I had the root canal on in April cracked and I lost the filling.  They really should have put a crown on it in April, but they said it wasn't necessary. Thanks to my sister, I did not have to cut my weekend short. She gave me "brace wax" to put over the tooth so I wouldn't bite down or get food stuck in it until I could get to my dentist today.  Not much of the tooth was left to save. I had to choose whether to get it pulled (less expensive) or get a crown.  I decided on the crown, because  think it is better to keep your own as long as possible.  If I have to get it pulled later, I will need to get something to fill the space.
