Lunch Stop
Shortly after leaving our SDV Anat and I realized we were hungry. Anat spotted a sign for Esther's restaurant alongside the road and we decided it was worth a stop. We stepped into a time warp. I really think we were in the 50's, only the waitress with the punk colored hair let us know that we really hadn't walked through a time warp. After being seated in a booth Anat and I zoned in right away on the same items on the menu- Chicken Crouquette and breaded cauliflower. Both of us felt like it was a trip back to our childhood, complete with the canned greenbeans swimming in buttered water. We ordered potato filling (Mashed potatoes with herbs and egg mixed in and then baked- tasted like mashed stove top stuffing to me,) and each some soup too. We finished with pie- I think they had like 500 types to order from (Lemon for me, peach for Anat.) While not the culinary treat we thought it would be I still loved this place and the memories it brought up for me.
