Not too long ago Miss Dish and I went out with Mama Bear, Papa Bear and Ursa Minor to celebrate Mama Bear's annual birthday. Of course M.D. and I chose to include a swap to make things interesting. Our target - the Davenport Press in Mineola, Long Island, New York:
Now here's a place with some history! The building dates back to 1862 but the Davenport Press has been a restaurant since 1976. Before that is was, as you might have guessed, a printing press! And even before that it was a bank. Would you keep your money here?
The whole gang had a real great meal and walked away with a newly swapped spoon:
Spoon number 33's markings give it away as an ADCRAFT brand spoon. Looks to me like it's from their "Avalon" collection:
Avalon, where according to legend King Arthur's Excalibur was forged! What a fine name for a spoon!
