The first thing I noticed when I entered Doc's Snack Shack was the aroma of a mountain meadow. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive turquoise and navy blue decor. We were greeted and seated in the Water bottle Room, an exotic room decorated with numerous air compressors and odd fish bowls. Our waitress, whose name was Mama, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is extensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were Swiss cheese, fried eggs, chocolate-covered ants, and succotash. I decided to order Ravioli Alla Cappuccina and my companion, Jim, ordered Apple pie Burgundaise. Mama seemed vacuous as she brought in our orders about twenty-seven minutes later. I had a doughnut on the side, and Jim had a waffle. A rum and Coke was a perfect complement for my ravioli.
The Ravioli was excellent but a bit tiny. The common way to cook with lemon juice is to fry first, but our chef chooses to deep fry, then blend it into the ravioli. Jim thought the apple pie seemed a bit crisp, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred two dollars, which I think is lackluster. Overall, the food was phenomenal, the atmosphere was unexceptional, and the service was quite good. If you are a rugged person, this might not be the worst place for you.
