My View of Life on the Dock
The counter at the Cupboard is made from a classic formica. All those years, all those patrons served and that old formica countertop is still holding up. Sure it’s well worn in certain spots, but polished up over the years it’s certainly timeless. I’d go as far to say that there is something comforting about and old worn formica countertop. You know if the establishment that you’re eating at has one like it that they serve the kind of grub that will leave you satisfied.

When Erik Lorden, my buddy and the owner/chef at Passports stopped by to pick up lobsters yesterday he was wearing this Burger King Hat.
He vowed to wear it all day long much to the chagrin of his entire family.
I think he’s ought to check the ventilation in the kitchen, he must not be getting enough oxygen to his noggin.

Forgive the dark video but until I get a better video camera, it doesn’t do too well in low light situations
Many GMG readers were saddened to see Andiamos close it’s doors this week.
The best way I could describe Andiamos was “out to dinner food at take out prices”. I tried about 10-12 different dishes there and every one was not just good, but outstanding.
I went in to the owners’ other Gloucester food venture- Scroo Cooking to find out what we all want to know. Will they be bringing some of our favorite dishes down to Scroo Cooking?
Check back at 1PM for our video interview
