I did some damage on the pork products, for sure. Small nitpick. The website says the meat platter also includes kielbasa, but there was none around today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Everyone probably understands that, as due to global warming, the kielbasa harvest last year was considerably down, and this year isn&#8217;t looking like they are going to be as high as an elephant&#8217;s eye by the fourth of July either! Oh well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The food was really excellent \u2013 fresh and hot. I dug into the eggs, skipped the taters and cakes, but the kids went for everything (except they turned up their noses at biscuits and gravy, but what do they know?)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For lunch and dinner, there are one or two specials served in \u201cthe family way\u201d and an ala carte menu as well.<\/p>\n<p>Good stuff. Crazy, energetic waitresses. Fun times. \u00a0Bakery and gift shop also on location. \u00a0Authentic &#8220;lumberjack show&#8221; next door, a couple times a day or more.
