Open
in July and August
Dinner
served Thursday through Monday
I
am very happy to report that the Owl re-opened last weekend. Rich and
Joanne are back from Georgia, Anna and Jeremy are back at their posts
in the dining room, and the North Country stars are once again
aligned. It is their intention to serve dinner Thursday through
Monday during July and August.
The
restaurant does not have a website so as a public service I have
reprinted the current menu below. We stopped in last night
for dinner and - if not for the fact that everyone that came in the
door got a long lost hello and a hug - it seemed like they had never
closed. Actually it is hard to believe that they got the place
up and running - restocking the kitchen and replenishing the liquor
and wines - in the week that they were back in town.
A complete earlier review of the restaurant can be found here. The
nutshell version is that the Owl at Twilight is one of the finest
restaurants in the North Country and you have exactly eight weeks
each summer to experience it for yourself. Leave room for dessert (try
the ginger donuts) and arrive early enough for a cocktail before
dinner. Joanne makes the best martini in the North Country ~ bar
none.
