Three, or so,times a year I leave the camp on Moultonboro at 6:30 A M
Before everyone else wakes up. On good weather days I'll take a motorcycle
for the 8 mile trek to Country Cooken (Or what ever its called ) .
I sit at the BAR ,read my Boston Herald, and enjoy a consistent ,Delicious
breakfast, and always very filling.
BUT THE COFFEE S%@KS. Come on guys its not that hard to make good coffee.I know, we all have our own opinion on how java should taste, But "YUCK"
So I will continue my summer ritual ,that is one of many that I live for ,
Because the food is great and I enjoy the atmosphere , I will put up with coffee
( no choice ) then head back for another day in Paradise. Stopping at Dunkin Donuts first. (saddle bags ).
I know ,now I'm gonna hear how D Ds S%$ks.
KEEP BOAT'EN

Weird? I am no Coffee connoisseur but I think that Dunkin Donuts Coffee is DISGUSTING! I can't stand it, it always tastes burnt to me.

So funny how people have different tastes when it comes to stuff like this: Beer, Coffee, Soda, etc. I absolutely do not doubt that you hate the VK Coffee. I for one find it pretty darn good. That's just me. I know some people love Starbucks, Dunkins and the chains. My favorite Coffee is the one I sip on my dock.

[twoplustwo]

I think Starbucks sucks and their beans are overroasted and burnt.

Different coffee strokes... DD's is my major vice. They love me there

I have had the chicken parm many times. There were two good chicken breasts (or what seemed like chicken breasts) of such size that even I often could not eat it all at one sitting. I am not imagining this. I had a gal come over last year unexpectedly and said, "Here there is plenty for two." I do not know when that changed but it has. The two pieces that I had for several years were certainly not chicken tenders. Or not the same as what you now serve. I feel that the amount of chicken is MUCH less with the one breast that is served so I guess we are just going to have to disagree on this matter. I am not saying that the chicken parm is not good. On the contrary. It is delicious. It is just less chicken. I also like the turkey and the swordfish. The portions just seem now to be more weighted conscious than I guess they were in the past and maybe that is what needs to be done for profits. Maybe VK was just too good to be true Still a nice place to eat but there is more competition in your price range now so I go to several different places instead of several times a week to VK. I hope we all do well actually so best wishes from me.

So, Lovely To See You, what is the WE for in your last post?

I thought that you had no ownership or employment interest in the Bob House.

Hmmmmmmmmmm......................

Yikes ! ! ! ! Lovely's posts have been so labor intensive that I skimmed right over that one.

[LovelyToSeeYou]

In God We Trust, May The Good Lord Bless and Keep Us, We Gather Together to Ask the Lord Blessings, We Wish You A Merry Christmas, Over the River and to the Woods to Grandmother's House We Go, We the People, AND "I hope we all do well actually so best wishes from me to you???" Off to the day. Some of you may need to do yard work or go to Church or gather with family???? I wish us all well though. Even though some of you appear to have an agenda to me at least. Just to attack. Even SamIAm cannot say enough bad things about Hannaford???? LOL HMMMMMMM I wonder about the drama here. You all can't be teenagers and I am just not used to this in adults. Any of you ever go to performances? You ever read the reviews? You think that these people all have an interest in the performances that they love and are out to destroy the performances that they dislike? LOL Too crazy for any more of my time this morning. Hope we all have a nice day though. Oh Oh there is that WE again??? Crazy.

[hazelnut]

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

Nah LTSY, your whole demeanor and approach has been your undoing I am afraid. Again, you are dealing with many individuals on a public forum that have seen this same act over and over again.

I hope you stick around though. It is nice to have varying opinions for sure. Unfortunately though I'm not sure how long you'll last. You seem to take every little comment so personally? Why?

You criticized just about every eating establishment in the Moultonboro area, save for one. You didn't expect a reaction? People have their favorites and they get angry when someone slams it when they perceive an agenda. I noticed you ran to the defense of the Bob House when someone complained about them. Good advice BTW. What was it "Go there during the week when they aren't busy?" In my eyes if a restaurant doesn't have their act together during the busy times then it aint' worth my dollar when they aren't busy.

Anyway, try not to take this all too personally. I fail to see these "attacks" you mention. People are debating your assertions and questioning your agenda. So far it all seems like a healthy debate so far. The victim act usually fails to raise any sympathy as far as I have ever seen on this board.

FYI: I saw the "WE" comment and declined to post. Now I will only say that it appeared to me, and now I can say others, that it was a slip of the tongue so to speak. When you made that statement it seemed as though you were aligning yourself with SAMIAM as a restaurant owner hoping that you (we) all do well. Just an observation not an accusation.

P.S. This message is not intended to be an attack. It's an opposing viewpoint in a debate, nothing personal. As a matter of fact next time I eat at the VK I will look out for the things you mentioned and report back my experiences. As is often the case the forum is in the back of my head when I go out to eat. If someone makes comments here I judge whether or not my experiences match those stated here.

So sad to have lost that chance for a perfect season a couple of years ago. Wonder how Brady will do? I was a frustrated Red Sox fan for most of my life (born in 43) but never expected to see the Sox beat the Yanks after being down 3 to them and come back in 4 straight. The series may have been a boring sweep to some but to me to finally have a world series win in my lifetime was an answer to my dreams. AND THEN TO WIN A SECOND !!! I love the Sox and the Pats!!!

[Drummer Girl]

Huh? Very strange...

Can we say "{what the heck}" here? I mean, we use "ROTFLMAO" and "ROTFPIMP" - why not "{what the heck}"? Like someone else, said, if I'm gonna get in trouble, I want it to be good... so...

{what the heck}? is up with that post from left-field?

(Forgive me Don, for I have sinned... I'll say 10 "Hail Mt. Washingtons"...)

I have a guess and it is only a guess. The post came after one of my posts. My avatar is the Pats logo. Maybe, just maybe that sparked the comment?

Some psychologists may term this as deflection?

[rrr]

My guess is the date - born in 43? The former poster we are thinking about is younger than that. I think it's supposed to be a 'No that couldn't be her - this person's older'

IMHO, if you would say it to a bunch of first or second graders, then as an exclamation, it is probably OK. PIMP, a good example. LMAO, maybe not.
WT*, definately not.

I am not a prude, but I would prefer to use "it" only in company that I am totally familiar with, and not loud enough to offend anyone else. (I am not offended, just would not use it here on the forum).
Again, JMHO.
Now back to your regularly scheduled program...

[gtagrip]

I think someone's med's have worn off since the LP debate!

You totally lost me.

Go to this website to see common computer acronyms. I've started with one for you.

[WinnDixie]

I've added this to my Favorites! To think I was getting ready to ask if LOL meant "laugh out loud" or "lots of luck"! I barely know about three or four...it seems I have LOTS to learn! Maybe even more than I want to know!

[Pineedles]

I used this website because it is G rated and WT* does not appear in its most commonly known definition.

Folks...I may be wrong, but I'm going to go out on a limb here. This "new" member is a former member with a new screen name.
Just think it thru a bit.

I thought that might be the case too. That attitude and outlook seem the same. If it walks like a dog and talks like a dog................

Hmmmmm...........NNNNN.........She's back!

Oh what a LOVELY troll...

You've had your 15-minutes of fame. Bye....

Considering what was written in that other thread and now here, you guys really need to find something to do with your time. Talk about having major issues. I can assure you this LovelyToSeeYou character is not Nadia And let's refrain from ranting and raving about half truths, who threatened who, and posting personal information that has nothing to do with the Lakes Region. I've never seen grown men, repeatedly and insistantly, attack, humiliate and flog an alledged "younger, mentally disturbed girl". Drop it. It's sickening.

[upthesaukee]

As I said earlier or in another thread, don't read the post, or ignore them. Worst case scenario, put them on your ignore list.

Life is too short to spend that amount of time for no purpose. This is a fun, information filled, let's be kind to one another website.

Sorry, slipped up onto the soap box again. I'll be quiet now.

Be well, everyone.

That's OK. Try my soap-box next time ....

There is another VK thread if anyone wants to post a review. This thread is now closed.

There is no way the word "we" is used here in the context that she later described. NO WAY!
The one and only way it can be interpreted is, we, as in a grouping of restaurant owners/ employees.

If we are to believe her later post, then for some very odd reason she felt compelled to write a long post about chicken parm, and then end it be wishing that all forum members are doing OK. "I hope we all do well..."
Nope. Not buyin' it.

[SAMIAM]

RPM......I'm LMAO......about your post about the VK coffee,because I'm not that crazy about it either.We have bought from the same coffee company since 1972......all the way back to Longwood farms.Some peple love it and others don't.Every pot is ground fresh,but I, personally like the DD taste.I stop there myself sometimes and everybody rags the hell out of me.If you want to bring a cup of DD in for breakfast,you have my permission.Would you mind bringing me a small regular? Glad you like my food,though.

[Pontoon Goon]

Samiam I like your coffee just fine but do you mind if I bring in a second piece of chicken when I have your chicken parm ?
