Commenter Phyllis from Georgia got a little sad after reading the Mmm... free food post...
She writes: "If Utz's and Snyders can reach us in Columbus, Ga., why can't Martin's Chips? THIS IS ONE FOR KEN POTTER! We would love to have them!"
But, back in 2005, we wrote a pretty cool article sympathizing with your plight - and explaining some of the reasons why our goodies are so hard to find elsewhere.
It's spring, ladies and gentlemen, and that means it's time for York Countians to start making their weekly or more-than-weekly pilgrimages to their favorite local ice-cream parlors, right?
One of my favorite's, Mack's on Route 74 in Dover Township, is open all year, but somehow I just can't get in the mood for ice cream till it gets warm. So Wednesday night, the husband and I took advantage of the amazing weather to head out and get him some dinner and me some Oreo-cookie-and-milk-in-a-cone.
That's hubby Chris at right, holding my small Oreo cookie cone. Small! For $2.50, I got what must have been three full scoops. It was amazing.
He was more in a dinner mood. And while I recommended the famous Mack's chicken strips, he had another idea.
So, a story today says that the Starlite Diner was sold. And, its soon-to-be-former owner, Hristos "Chris" Kopanis, is the person who's going to open up the Eagles Nest (again) on Mount Rose Avenue.
Steve C. Efstathiou, the Starlite's soon-to-be new owner, says he's going to rename the eatery the Nautilus Diner. I don't know... Starlite kind of had a better ring, but what do I know about being a restaurateur?
In 2004, Chris Kopanis sold the place I went on my first date with my husband - the Crazy Horse in the Cross Keys area of Adams County. I'm hoping the new version of the Eagles Nest keeps some of the good stuff from that place, which is still good but not quite the same!
