I can usually pick a time we were with the grandkids– our get-togethers happen fairly regularly– but I’m gonna go with a trip to Shady Maple with my sister-in-law and her husband. Shady Maple is a well-known smorgasbord in Lancaster County, PA. In fact, it claims to be the largest such establishment in the U.S.
One does not go to Shady Maple without saving one’s appetite ahead of time– you have to get your money’s worth… They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner (or supper), and each meal is a feast for the eyes and the stomach, an almost embarrassingly vast array of dishes and choices, from salad to entree to dessert. The coffee is decent, too. We had lunch there and it ended up being the last time we ate that day.
If you’re ever out that way, stop in and enjoy! There’s also a huge gift shop downstairs, along with a free-standing grocery store and furniture store– one-stop shopping for a variety of needs and wants.
