RustyK was spot on with his post in this thread !!

Thank you...I shall. AS a foodie ...AND a very good cook?....I'm more than comfortable with my take on food...and clever workups in my beloved K kitchen. FYI?....soup n salad...never go out of style. They are internationally timeless... a true prelude to a meal forthcoming. As has been echoed for decades?...thats why Howard Johnsons has 28 flavors... something for everybody. Enjoy your....whatever... may it satiate your appetite and fill yer belly.

Bahaha! Maybe you SHOULD get with the times...

As of February 2018, two Howard Johnson's restaurants remain in Ocala, FL and Lake George, NY (though it does not seem to have a regular operating schedule) The line of branded supermarket frozen foods, including ice cream, is no longer manufactured.

Maybe it was Baskin-Robbins 31 flavors you were thinking of?

Ummmm?.. NO. Perhaps..it is YOU ........that should get with.."the times'. The 28 flavors expression is older than dirt..Hell...Blazing Saddles ( a movie...before your time?)...even took clever barbs at Hojo's.... ONE flavor....Sodajerk , out...

No, sorry not before my time. It was released in 1974. AND we had a Ho-Jo's on Aquidneck Island, where I grew up. Spent enough time eating late night snacks after last call, many years ago.

thats why Howard Johnsons has 28 flavors...

But the point was, which you seemed to miss... was that you used it as an example of great food options on the Acess rd, when in reality, they are basically out of business.

Went to Mountain Top last weekend - really good - good beer on Tap as well - almost as good as the Yosh

Cool bar/tavern and a great New England view.

The Back Room in Pittsfield is FAB-U-LOUS.

God almighty...some people are thick....choosing a place to chow.... a veritable melange of options..on and near the Access Rd..... almost akin to choosing ICE CREAM FLAVORS.... any of...28!...HERE....have a donut!

Pretty much every restaurant on the road is supplied by Sysco. It’s ALL the same sh*t. Comparing Moguls to Casey’s is futile. Just choose your preference of 80’s decor, 90’s presentation, and sh*t service.

Credit to Preston’s and Highline Lodge for trying to step up the game.

Rod Stewart at Choices will bring you tuna tartare in a martini glass. Patrick Bateman would be proud.

You really don't have a clue.

While Sysco may supply a lot of items, the good places source their meats, fish and other main course ingredients from other places.

This is a true statement. I do like Sysco. It may be boilerplate, but you get on time deliveries.

Can you cite some examples? My experience on the road has generally and for almost 20 years been the same. Awful food and worse service.

Choices for starters.

From their www: Being the Chef, the menu has always featured everything being made in-House and in addition to the basic stocks, sauces, dressings, meat and fish cutting, I included our own bread, desserts and fresh pasta."

I don't understand the Killington infatuation with Choices. The menu, presentation, and decor are almost 30 years behind. "entrees include soup or salad"... that tells you everything you need to know.

What a douche. So Chef Claude includes a soup or salad with dinner. OMG he must reallllly suck! Hey, I'm sure Claude would love to eliminate that expense. Love these people who have no clue about the restaurant business and don't appreciate the efforts put forth. Being in the restaurant business my entire life, I cant imagine the endless challenges the restaurants on the hill have to endure to stay open. Bad weather, lack of skilled employees, shortened seasons, to name a few. Kudos to them for keeping their doors open for us. Don't like it? Leave. Or better yet, give the restaurant business a try for yourself and GOOD LUCK!

Rrrrraaaaao! Frisky. I like that. Butt which one of these schlubs are you calling a douche?

Please post your age and a picture of yourself for evaluation.

Ok...I'll take a salad fork stab at this rant... whiny diney boy.... got stood up on a blind date at Choices...while he's steaming...and enjoying a burger at Moguls?.. the lucky No Show Lady...is home...getting a schtupping from the Pillbury Doughboy. Boinked to the point of near rapture and exhaustion?...she a Dough Boy head up the hill for a nosh...and walk right past YUP....whiney-no-diney boy. HENCE?...the bitterness. Who says Hollywood doesnt write any good scripts anymore....

Most restaurants on K road are good. Some better then others. I'm not gonna point to any. I can't say any suck or any are awesome. Some are wayyyy overpriced! Most of the time on busy weekends we'd rather just pickup sandwiches at Phat Italian and go back to our condo and eat in peace anyway. We only hit a restaurant every now and then on non busy times. I've also never encountered bad service in the 27 years I've been coming to K. Usually the people that complain the most about bad service are usually the PITA that harasses the employees over stupid sh*t!
