    This is probably the hardest review I've done, and I've taken some time to think about it before…read moredoing so. We came here for my husband's birthday dinner, as we were in the area for a getaway. We were both stationed in Germany back in the day, and he has a particular adoration for German food. And that German food MUST COME WITH SPAETZLE, which is the German version of noodles. Of course he also needs the breaded cutlet, but it all goes together for him: cutlet, gravy, spaetzle. As a vegetarian, German food is often harder for me, and so I really only had one entree choice: the potato pancake, although I believe that wasn't the official name for it. My husband's entree didn't come with spaetzle, but there was a kids meal with it and perhaps it came with other entrees, I can't remember, but we assumed he could switch his side to spaetzle and everyone would go home happy. Au contraire. We went for the appetizer, entree, desert pricing since everything was on the more expensive side and this way we'd just choose from each selection without thinking about the cost. The first problem occurred when we asked if the German pretzel, our favorite share starter, could take the place of one of our appetizers. After all it was the same price or cheaper, AND it's a gd appetizer, after all. Isn't it? No. We were not allowed to do that. So we skipped the pretzel, trying to keep our birthday cheer afloat. Tis but a fleshwound, right? Next he was told he could not substitute spaetzle for the side that came with his entree. Why not? We got a shrug. Then we asked if he could just buy a side of it. We were told it wasn't on the side list so no, he couldn't get a side of it. Imagine! You are told at a German restaurant you can't even BUY THE GERMAN FOOD YOU WANT AS A SIDE. Even though they have it there. At this point we were irritated. But it's his birthday dinner. So we just ordered from the menu and attempted to move on and enjoy the experience. Then the food comes out. It's absolutely delicious! The asparagus appetizer I'd selected was incredible, and my potato entree superb. Hub's portion of cutlet was generous, and he said his whole meal was on point. (With the exception of the missing spaetzle, of course.) We both had the apple streudel for desert, and the flavor was there, but it was super cold, unlike many we've gotten warm and delicious. We weren't a fan of it cold. The atmosphere was nice, and the waitress did a decent job of filling our orders, but seemed to have no empathy for our needs or desires. This all left me torn as to what rating to give the restaurant. The food we got was mostly amazing, except for the temperature of the dessert. I'd give it five stars in a heartbeat. The inflexibility to make the most basic efforts to keep your guests happy: allowing the pretzel to be included in the appetizer choices, and allowing a guest to swap a side for spaetzle or even allowing them to buy it as an extra side seemed to the point of insanity. Isn't the point of having a restaurant to serve people good food in a nice atmosphere so everyone is happy? Someone there has lost the plot. I'd give them a zero if I could for ruining my husband's birthday dinner with this ridiculous behavior. So I settled for a three. This three neither addresses the excellence of the food we ate or the basic failure to keep their guests happy. I hope they stay in business but learn to be flexible. It's not becoming.

    The food was horrible. Had the goulash that was over-salted soup. Wife had sauerbraten which was…read moreinedible. Son-in-law was charged $20 for a glass of house Cabernet. Bottom line..when you call yourself a German restaurant and you misspell Merry Christmas as "Frohe Weihnacten" you know you're in for disappointment. That should have been a red flag. Overpriced slop.

    Located in Manchester VT a very homey little candy shop…read more You walk into this place in Manchester and just kinda think...why does this store fit perfectly for where I am at at this moment? It's truly a pleasant little store. The lady seemed a little weirded out when my brother and I first walked in. We were in Manchester for the night, on our way back to NY from a week in Maine. She looked at us like....hmm I dunno, don't wanna say anything mean bc she wasn't mean lol, she just looked at us ... weirdly lol. Not sure how else to put it. As our visit went on she ended up being very nice. I just hope she didn't think we were in there to like...steal a couple pieces of candy hahaha. I mean, we aren't 10 years old anymore lol. She then went on to tell us about the store and how all the candy is made there (pretty sure that's what she said). I just remember thinking....how wonderful that this stuff isn't imported from places like...ugh China! They have everything! Every possible kind of candy you can imagine...she has it. She gave us a free sample and it was amazing! There are few great candy shoppes in Manchester. This one is definitely one of them. Prices are a little...high. Just a heads up if you go here. Couple things to consider as to why tho... 1) it's Manchester VT. It's a very bougie little town. Only makes sense most things are pricey there 2) privately owned 3) candy is made on site 4) it's Manchester Vermont lol Should this stop you from going? Absolutely not. Even if you're just in to look...it's worth it. Really a cute store. I hope to return to it one day. Living in Idaho, I rarely make it to Vermont lol. BUT IF I DO! I will for sure head back into Mother Myricks! Thanks for reading, YelperMyrickers! Cheers!

    From Mother Myrick's in Manchester, VT, we bought a few chocolate-covered orange peels,…read morechocolate-dipped apricots, along with a box of toffee covered with milk chocolate and ground almonds. I also bought a peach-raspberry muffin and a blueberry muffin. The muffins looked great but were without ANY flavor. Downright awful, not sure what that was about, but the chocolates were very good. I don't think they were quite as good as Lake Champlain chocolates, but they were a close second. I always appreciate the freshness factor (in addition to flavor), so it mattered that the orange peel and apricots were very fresh. If we are ever in the area, I'd come back here for sure, but I'd stick with the chocolates only. No more baked goods !

    "Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance…read moreagain Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon" (Neil Young) I'm not sure exactly where I picked up my Halladay's Harvest Barn Chicken Enchilada Soup Mix. It was probably at one of the Farmer's Markets I visited over the summer. I had kind of forgotten about it, and just found it behind a bunch of Cheetos Flaming Hot Mac and Cheese containers in my kitchen pantry. After I rescued it from Pantry Purgatory, I checked out the cooking instructions and it was super simple to make. Just add 3 cups of water, a 15-Ounce can of black beans (which I had on hand), a cup of salsa (which I also had on hand), and 6-ounces of cooked chicken which I swapped out for cooked turkey (which I had on hand as Thanksgiving leftovers). I just mixed everything together in a big pot and simmered for a half hour and she was done. The rice, corn kernels, and dehydrated veggies in the mix cooked up nice as did everything else. I thought the soup was a little bland, so I popped in some cumin, chili powder, and crushed red pepper to liven up the old zip and zing factor. I now have seven cups of yummy zip in my fridge for upcoming lunches. I was very happy with Halladay's Harvest Barn Chicken Enchilada Soup Mix. It made a soup that was just 90 calories per cup before you add chicken, (which is totally optional). I hope if I ever buy another of their hundreds of products I get to it quicker than it took me to discover this one lurking in the hinterlands of my pantry.
