DINING AT THE SHORE
Chart your course for the best tastes of the seaside, where some favorites have dropped anchor in new locales.
Craig LaBan: With only some exceptions, last year's talents have simply re-anchored their stoves to new locales along the coast. Here's a look at five new fine-dining contenders this season, from Cape May to Ventnor, where familiar faces (and some familiar places) are making waves again.

Let guests taste a wide array of toppings without busting their belts by serving sliders - those 3-ounce burgers restaurant chefs love to plate in groups of three. They're cute, convenient, and perfect at a toppings bar. And you can go beyond beef and offer slider variations made of lamb, pork, turkey, crab - even veggies.
RECIPES
Philadelphia Slider Burgers
3 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
1 large Spanish onion
1 1/2 pounds ground chuck or ground turkey
8 slices aged provolone cheese
8 mini slider buns, toasted if desired
2 jarred roasted red bell peppers
Pickled hot pepper rings

What opened last fall as yet another addition to an overcrowded field of Italian BYOs has evolved to reflect more of the native Moroccan flavors of owner-chef Hassan Zanzoul. From chicken tagines to house-made merguez with charmoula, the exotic dishes add some distinction to the otherwise simple but well-cooked Mediterranean menu. Service is scattered, but a warm ambience and moderate prices make this bistro first-date-worthy.
Dinner Monday through Thursday, 5 to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday, 5 to 11 p.m., Sunday, 9-44 to 9 p.m.

Putting on a banner barbecue in lean times
-
In the old days, say about this time last year, it wasn't so hard to throw a bang-up backyard barbecue: You just picked up some nice, thick, 28-day dry-aged prime New York strip steaks, lit a fire, grilled to medium-rare, and then made an extended curtain call, trying to appear humble as your guests stomped and cheered.
