I have thought about this what my favorite restaurant is on the Outer Banks & I have found that I have three, a different one for each meal.
Breakfast: When I am lucky enough to be this far south at breakfast only one place comes to my ming, Grits Grill in Nags Head just south of the Hospital. They have biscuits so big that they are a meal themselves.
Lunch: My Lunch choice is much closer to home. It is Route 12 in the Timbuk II shopping center, Corolla. I usually go light there and order appetizers; shrimp wrapped in bacon & a bowl of clam chowder. But when I am adventurous, then it is the Surf N' Turf Burger!
Dinner: there is no dish on the Outer Banks that I like more than the Seafood Lasagna served for diner at the Jolly Rodger in Kill Devil Hills. I like it so much that my wife says that I pet it with my fork while I am eating. It comes with a side of linguine & I strongly recommend that you change out the sauce from their marinara to their clam sauce. That one change brings the dish from a 9.5 to a 10 in my book.
