My Last Night at Mill’s Tavern

July 23rd, 2009

After four steady years as an employee at Mill’s Tavern, I was about to move away. I had worked there, and only there, since I was old enough to work. Now, however, it was time for me to leave for college and prepare for something my challenging and beneficial, though I didn’t know what that was at the time. As a going-away gift, the cook, Mark, concocted a sandwich for me, using his patented shrimp salad recipe. Although it wasn’t a steak or a lobster, it added to my sense of having accomplished something during my four years there. A free delicious meal was a great gift to someone about to embark on a new chapter in his life.
