A YEAR OF GREAT EATING: 2007'S TOP 10, PLUS ONE
By Walter E. Siebel of the Watertown Daily Times - December 30, 2007

Restaurant at the Lodge on Lake Clear

LAKE CLEAR - The last Sunday of the year is an opportune time to reflect on some exciting eating experiences of 2007.

Welcome to the recap of the top 10 restaurants that we reviewed this past year.

It's refreshing to know that all but one are solely owned one-of-a-kind establishments.

Only two received top honors of five forks - "fabulous-don't miss it" - Hohmeyer's Lake Clear Lodge and Eat 'n Meet, both within 10 miles of each other in the Adirondacks. The rest received four forks.

NUMBER #1: Hohmeyer's Lake Clear Lodge, 6319 Route 30, Lake Clear, NY. 1 (518) 891 1489 or 1 (877) 6-ADK ALPS www.lodgeonlakeclear.com.

Rating: 5 forks.

Hohmeyer's Lake Clear Lodge is a gem of a place in the Adirondacks tucked away in the woods between Tupper Lake and Lake Placid.

The lodge is the family home of Ernest and Cathy Hohmeyer and their three children. It's cozy as can be, from the fireplace warming the reception area to the hand-hewn wooden beams and vintage wooden tables throughout the dining room.

There's only one seating each evening, limited to approximately 50 guests.

Cathy does the cooking and Ernest does the schmoozing.

Your evening begins in Ernest's domain, the basement-level "wein and bier keller." Relax in the plush couches, look over the menu - good, hearty choices that combine old world recipes with traditional Adirondack preparations.

Downstairs at the Lodge on Lake ClearAppetizers include a sampler of sausages - grilled German brats and a spicy Andouille, handmade potato pierogies filled with potato, bacon and seasonings, and herring "cooked" in a Riesling wine sauce and served chilled over fresh greens.

The chef's soup, a marvelous mixture of chicken, vegetables, barley and herbs and spices in a brownish poultry stock, is one of the special Hohmeyer recipes passed down through the generations.

Indulge in Adirondack hunter's stroganoff made with local beef and port, crisp roast duckling (another family recipe), smoked Cornish game hen from their smoker out back, hand-cut bone-in roast pork loin, hand-pounded chicken schnitzel, and of course, sauerbraten, marinated for 72 hours.

Hohmeyer's Lake Clear Lodge is a true old world experience - fine food and gracious hospitality in a century-old lodge in the heart of the Adirondacks
