Shady Maple SMORGASBORD/ East Earl, Pa.

We drove about 30 miles to eat at the Shady Maple SMORGASBORD. This is a Mennonite run restaurant. There were 4 grills, 2 salad bars, a bread bar, 2 vegetable bars that were not the same and a dessert bar. One grill was oriental food that they cooked right in front of you (Kobe's) I had one small plate of American food and then i hit the oriental grill. WOW! Each and every bite was to die for. Kelly, you would have LOVED the oriental grill!! There was a gift shop and bread shop that we passed up. Neither of our diabetic selves needed any more bread
on the other side of the street was a Shady Maple Cafe and Farm Market We walked through but did not do any shopping.
