About mid day today (Saturday) I was faced with a decision: either go to the store ANF purchase groceries or go out to lunch. I think you can guess which I chose.
I walked to Yetty’s Pizzeria and Pasta in Herkimer, because I needed the exercise. I am taking a break from running but wish to continue walking. It did not take me long to realize that it was much hotter than it was last Saturday. Oh dear. Never mind, I told myself. Get to the air conditioning!
Soon I was sitting at the bar, sipping ice water and waiting for a Muffaleto sandwich. Kim’s and my favorite bartender, Piel, was on duty. I was only sorry Kim wasn’t there.
When I wasn’t chatting with Piel, I worked on a letter to a friend. Eventually I ordered a glass of Chardonnay to go with my sandwich. After all, I wasn’t driving!
I was quite taken with the Specials board. I quite agree with the sentiment: it is all about the people! I enjoyed hanging with Piel, and it will be even better when Kim and other friends can join me!
I took another picture as I sat there, enjoying my sandwich and the air conditioning. It was a very enjoyable lunch, and I took leftovers home to enjoy tomorrow.
Yetty’s is located at 109 Mohawk St., Herkimer, NY, phone number 315-866-4201. They are open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.
