A drive through memory lane

The best place to go for a feed of cod on the island is CJ's (aka Taylor's) in Green's Harbour. It is approximately 13 km off the TCH (at Whitbourne turn off) and completely worth the drive. Picturesque in places, the drive in can consist of yard sales (where you can buy a man's Newfoundland flag for your desk, despite the fact that he had no intention of selling it), a stop at Judy's gift and flower shop and of course a drive into Green's Harbour would not be complete without a visit to Freshmart for local fresh food and desserts. Mom and I arrived at CJ's and had to go find the waitress (love NF) and then waited and waited some more which worked out because when I saw the 2 piece fish and chips a man ordered in the booth next to ours I realized I would have to downsize my order to one piece because there was no way I was going to eat all of that! Air conditioning was a nice touch but I had to order tea (I was cold, ha). When our cod arrived and I dipped into it it was the freshest tastiest cod with the lightest tastiest batter. Amazing. The best I have ever had in my forty years. You must go. I wish I had room for the homemade pies (coconut cream, lemon meringue and apple) but I could not do it.
Now a trip to GH is also not complete with a visit to Cramm's. A store with almost everything you have ever seen or wanted in the past 50 years. I used to go there every time I visited Nan and Pop and I loved looked through ever nook and cranny (all 8765 of them!). I found a Mummer's apron (the last one) which I love and enjoyed the treasure hunt.
