Winter Restaurants

The Winnipesaukee Masons in Alton has a super Breakfast Buffet every third Sunday of the month and although I am not affiliated with them we enjoy their buffet so much that we braved the storm this last Sunday to get to it. Abundant food and selection for a reasonable price, not to mention, nice people.

We decided to give Abondante a try this past Friday evening. We came in a bit early and the restaurant was pretty quiet. They had a wine tasting starting at 7 and the place did start to fill up.

The atmosphere is quaint and the food was very good. The only complaint was that it was a bit cold; a couple next to us had a space heater.

We will certainly be back; we are going to make a point of catching them for a wine tasting.

This past Friday we decided to try out the Pine Cone Restaurant in Melvin Village, we have been wanting to for quite sometime now. The food, service and prices were very acceptable. But we froze the whole time we were there. We asked to sit by one of the gas fireplaces and we did, we were told that they were controlled by a thermostat and could not be turned on manually without messing them up, and that when it got cool enough it would start. Well we were there for 1 1/2 hours friday night which was cold and windy and very drafty and with our jackets on the whole time and it never came on. But we were assured it would eventually, I inquired to as what day that would be. Unfortunately, even though all else was fine, we will not be rushing back there until warm weather.

Does anyone know if Villiage Kitchen has a web-site where I could view their menu? Or could anyone possibly post a menu? Thank you.

I could not find one straight off, Maybe Samiam will chime in.

I go to the VK a few times a month and always get a good homecooked style meal- love those Turkey croquettes!
