October 23, 1969, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern
Over the years at the blog, we've grown accustomed (and appreciative) of reporting on the delightful and affordable spreads put on by the Hotel Menasha. In some years it was known as a buffet. For a time, it was popularly called a smorgasbord. In almost all cases, it was an "all you can eat" affair. Depending upon the holiday, we've seen duck, turkey, game hens, ham, crab legs, roast beef, you name it. This seems like the first time it was labeled a chicken and seafood combined buffet, though I'm sure other special days rivaled it.
There's no special point to make here; it just seems like the longer I do this, the more the memories come alive for things that were formerly with us. Is that historic, nostalgic, or just melancholy?
To answer your question, David, that's nostalgic. Good old nostalgia! It's a wonderful, nostalgic thing that you do here!
ReplyDeleteI remember my parents taking us there on a Friday once in a while it was great...nothing like it now.
