    Actually, I tried to remember but couldn't. Shows what an impression it made on me. Maybe DB, Withm or Regina would remember.

    Y'know, I would take you up on that, but there'd need to be two conditions:

    1) That it be after I recover from the ride. I dunno if it'd be a good idea to do that the night before. And,

    2) That there be something else decent on the menu besides the pickles.

    You're on.

    Hey- this place looks good to me.

    I don't see any fried pickles, though

    Was this it? It kind of looks like the place, and based on the google map it seems like it's in the area I remember (over a bridge and to the right through a neighborhood), but I don't see fried pickles on the menu.

    I think that's it, DB. We ate out on the porch overlooking the dock. Looks like they don't have the deep-fried pickles anymore, either.

    i see now why you were complaining about the food.
    That place is trying to do two extremely different type foods. And then throwing fried pickles into the mix

    And then there's the Acacia experience

    On my last foray into Cambridge, several different people (locals) highly recommended "Kay's Country Kitchen" at the airport. People who have private planes often do "fly-ins" there for lunch apparently. It may be more like "diner" type food but it might be worth a look. Prices should be reasonable. I've not been there but may get an opportunity to do so between now and May 3.

    Also good is Bistro Poplar, in Cambridge. According to their website, entrees run about $20-22. Again, I've not been there.

    If we want to go up to Easton for a nicer dinner, Mason's Gourmet restaurant in Easton is very nice. They have an expensive menu, also a "bistro" menu with lighter fare. I had an oyster pot pie there that was delicious! They also do lunch there, and have a great bar/deli area. And they make their own chocolates there. Hmm we should ride over there from Cambridge on Sat for lunch, coffee and chocolate. Then ride back to Cambridge and go kayaking. Or not.
