Dinner with Yuko's Family

Lunch with Yuko at Adachi
One of the places Amy found online was Adachi. The restaurant opens at noon. Because of our schedule change, we were early. We hung out at the 7-11 sown the block using the free WiFi. Then moved to in front of the restaurant. Our presence was noticed and the owner was very apologetic, even though she was not in the wrong at all, and gave us a gift of beautiful Japanese prints as we left.

End of a Great North Fork Trip with Lisa
Return to A Mano - It Never Disappoints
The kitchen opens at 5... a perfect time for us to have dinner. The weather was perfect, and the patio was beautiful.
Notes
.
After dinner to another favorite, the Magic Fountain Ice Cream before the drive home.
Lisa Leonard and Our Trip to the North Fork
Modern Snack Bar
In her youth, Lisa spent several summers on the North Fork with her family. She wanted to revisit some of the landmarks she remembered. First: The Modern Snack Bar.
Notes
It has been called the 'Modern' Snack Bar from the very beginning.
We proceeded to the Woodside Orchard for cider: Apricot is the special flavor this trip.
We then visited Greenport Pottery
Then, off to dinner.
