Every year I would ride around the United States and/or Canada from and to end and coming down from Canada into Buffalo (Lockport actually) or around the Finger Lakes and up to Lake Placid is a very common route for me.

And sometimes if I am going to Boston I will be around Albany and route 90, close enough to Syracuse and I would love, love, love, love that restaurant! The people. The history. The hightop table. The food was off the charts unbelievable as you must know.

So one time I was making one of my regular trips to the green onion and I was very upset to see they closed up.

I would think that place would be phenomenally booming. But they never seem to have more than a couple other people in there. To me, I think that was a major tragedy. I do not know why they closed. Do you?

I am very happy to hear you experienced that place.

I don't know why. 1 day they were there and a couple weeks later they had a sign permanently closed. It's definitely missed.
