Friday Night Happy Hour

Spent a nice evening last Friday at the Blue Heron Inn enjoying Happy Hour. While we live off of the lake, it was interesting to see so many people from Shadyside that night. They are great people and it's fun to chat with them over a drink. We stayed for supper and, as usual, it was a real toss-up as to what to eat. So many good dishes, so little time.

On the food front in Findley Lake, there is news to report. Vinnie's Pizza is serving breakfast starting at 5am. We tried it out on Monday and it was pretty good. Plus it's local and we support local eating establishments. After breakfast, I browsed the grocery section, which has a nice selection of oriental condiments and food. There were several bottles of shrimp paste, lots of different kinds of chili pastes, rice noodles, and hot sauce. If you do any kind of Chinese, Japanese, Thai, etc. cooking, take some time to browse the shelves. It's really nice to have such a varied selection here in Findley Lake.

Also on the food front, the former Lighthouse Point is to reopen under new ownership. Rumor has the opening set for May 15th and definitely by Memorial Day. This will add to the restaurant scene in Findley Lake.

Remember, you don't have to cook and clean up when you can eat right here in town. Three restaurants within 1 mile provide a lot of choices but only it we patronize them regularly.
Enjoy the variety and eat out this Friday !
