This topic has nothing to do with Anthrax or September 11, yes readers I'm writing something off the topic, it is something that might not interest others. The topic I want to write about is the closing of AC Peterson's Restaurant in West Hartford, Connecticut. This restaurant had amazing ice cream. Ever since I was a little girl, I would go to AC for ice cream, no not Friendleys or Baskin Robins, AC Peterson's ice cream.
Newport Creamy manufactured this ice cream. In the beginning of summer the restaurant changed its name to "Newport Creamy." I was fine with that ( a little sad because I was use to the name before), but now in the beginning of October my restaurant has closed down. The restaurant had a wonderful atmosphere and the prices were low ( really rare these days). Now, after thirty or more years of being opened for business, it has been shut down. The West Hartford newspaper doesn't mention anything and I have been looking it up in the Internet (nothing). I will continue to search the reasons why this happened to a restaurant I considered like "Cheers." It is pretty sad to see it go, but I guess all great things have their days.
