Thanks for the kind words.Business was sold to Seth Young our manager.He has worked for us since he was 14 and has done an outstanding job over the years and deserves this opportunity.
Seth values the old traditions as well as having some great new ideas of his own which I must admit are much needed after 37 years
Thank you all for the support

Bob, as you enjoy your retirement, please don't go away quietly.

Your contributions on this site are interesting, valuable, and well reasoned. I am sure people still want to hear from you.

Don't be a stranger!

As you may have seen from my posts, I've never had a "wow" experience at VK, but I've always appreciated how you've kept to your mission that obviously worked for many. This story is exactly the type of thing I love to support, though, so I'll be sure to stop in when we can going forward. Best of luck to the new owner.

Congrats on the sale and your retirement, and, as mentioned above, please do continue to contribute to the forum.

Cheers!

Sam, we want to wish you and your wife only the very best in retirement. We too have enjoyed the VK for almost 40 years; now our children's children continue the wonderful tradition. Wishing you great health, happiness and continued prosperity.

* A word about Seth Young, what fantastic news! Seth's hard working, always wearing a friendly smile, caring about quality and a more connected line to the VK's history, standards and culture would be difficult to find; IMO, he also prepares one of the best prime rib dinners in the lakes region.
A word about his lovely wife Anna. They say behind every great man is a more impressive wife....Anna Young has to be the most congenial, friendly, upbeat and classy waitress bar none. Always welcoming, warm, sincere, never any drama and especially efficient whether we're a group of 2 or 12....we just adore her.

Following Bill Belichick (Sam) won't be easy but, you two are a terrific team and we're betting you'll be wildly successful and lead the VK to the next level.

Wishing you only success in your wonderful new endeavor, looking forward to supporting you!

I hope Seth continues Sam's philosophy that the restaurant/culinary industry can be a life-long career and not just a temp. job to work your way through school.

Talent in this industry gets recognized easily and rewarded well.

Thank you ACME…for a post that is oozing positivity and encouragement for VK.

Bob and Sam please accept my sincere thanks for all the wonderful meals my family and I have had at the VK. I wanted to say that because although we tip the wait staff, we rarely see you or Sam to express our thanks.

Had a delightful meal tonight; Haddock and Scallop Casserole while my spouse had the Prime Rib. Excellent meal, great service and very reasonable prices!

Dinners are now being served on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturday nights.

Most of the waiters appeared to be from the morning staff, so my guess is they're working additional added shifts to pick up some extra bucks.

Thumbs up for the Village Kitchen!

Thanks for the kind words Pineedles and TimeTraveler…….and thanks for supporting us all these years.
Sammie and I feel, so lucky to have had a great crew, awesome customers and a good run at the VK

What terrific meals my wife and I had Friday evening at the VK. I had steak tips with sweet potato fries, a large salad, my wife had the haddock and a large bowl of fish chowder; to say we were thrilled to be back at the VK for dinner would be an understatement. Good old fashioned home cooked meals...............Seth is doing such a great job, like Sam, no nonsense and focused on the kitchen & dinning room and always a greeting smile to his customers all with service that is fast, efficient and friendly.

Finally, a word about Anna; no one is more friendly, charming, sincere and honest to goodness good than she; hard working, and lovely, never seen her not smiling or moody, just so nice.

Got to love the VK, we were back Saturday am for breakfast, fantastic omelets and pancakes.
