Regional Italian & Mediterranean Cuisine NICOLA’S: A FAMILY TRADITION Started in 1994 in a converted auto parts store, Nicola’s was the first modern Italian restaurant north of Manhattan to feature wood-fired pizza. Prior to opening his restaurant, chef/owner Michael Nicola traveled extensively to Rome, Florence, Bologna, and Naples, Italy; New York City, and San Francisco. He visited vineyards, olive groves, farmers’ markets, and cheese plants in each region, eating in local restaurants and immersing himself in the local culture. He learned first-hand the Italian cooking principle that: a few quality ingredients cooked properly, are the secret to authentic Italian taste. Returning to Lake Placid he opened Nicola’s Over Main – it was an immediate success. Ten years later, having outgrown their original location, the Nicolas built their current facility situated directly across the street from the Olympic Center.
HERE
IS A
The Nicola’s philosophy combines old world hospitality and lifestyle with the love of good food. They are at the restaurant selecting ingredients, making pizza and bread dough, and pastas. The wood fired oven is heated to the optimal temperature to insure that the crust is always thin and crispy. Our marinara sauce exemplifies the Italian cooking principle that simpler is better. A combination of ground pork, veal, beef, and hand crushed plum tomatoes, are the basis of our famous Bolognese sauce. Chef Nicola starts with the soffrito, adds each ingredient, one by one, and slow simmers the tomatoes to intensify the rich flavors. To ensure the next generation of Nicola’s restaurant, Michael’s daughter, Maggie, has donned the apron. After spending three winter seasons skiing and cooking in Lake Tahoe, Maggie made the life decision to commit to the family business. She is now the chef and works side-by-side everyday with her father, honoring her skills and carrying on the family tradition. Together they create a unique item, one that is not on the menu. Taste the difference.

NORTH COUNTRY DINING GUIDE • SUMMER 2018 - 73
Here is what others are saying about The Lake Placid Pub & Brewery! This is my go-to place in Lake Placid whenever I vacation in the Adirondacks. After hiking and backpacking in the area my husband and I always crave Lake Placid brews and pub food!
Lake Placid Pub & Brewery is my new favorite place... I am a lover of beer, good views (the pub is literally right across the road from Mirror Lake!), top-notch service, delicious food, and the overall Adirondack region, and LPP&B has all of those elements. Come for the beer, stay for the food, and keep coming back for the amazing service! When in Lake Placid, a stop at the Lake Placid Pub & Brewery is a must! Featuring views of Mirror Lake, a lively atmosphere, walls covered with college pennants from across the US, and most importantly, delicious beer and food, it’s a perfect place to stop for lunch or dinner. If you are visiting Lake Placid this should be on your list of places to go! Great food, great beer, comfortable and lots of fun! From appetizers to desserts, the Lake Placid Pub & Brewery will please the palate and satisfy the hunger cravings of anyone (of all ages) looking for a great dining experience. The beer, wine & beverages offered will also quench your thirst and compliment the menu. Recent Tripadvisor & Yelp Reviews

Ordering Etiq u ette
Experienced restaurant-goers know that more than a little thought goes into ordering, from choosing pre-dinner cocktails to picking the meal courses to selecting the wines served during the meal. They also know how important it is to have made up their minds by the time they let the server know he can take their orders. If you aren’t ready, simply tell your server that you need more time. Holding him there as you keep changing your mind has repercussions: New arrivals at his other tables become impatient, some patrons have to wait longer to order, and the food your server is responsible for delivering to someone else must wait in the kitchen or under a heat lamp. Two other important points: • The signal that says you’re ready to order is a closed menu. If you keep browsing the menu after you’ve decided what you want, how is the server to know? • If those in your group want separate checks, make the request of your server at the start, even before you order a drink or appetizer. Asking for individual checks at the end of the meal slows down service for everyone in the restaurant because the server will have to spend time preparing them. Keep in mind that there’s always the chance that a restaurant won’t allow separate checks. If you plan to request them, find out if it’s permissible by calling in advance or asking when you arrive.
main course if you know the servings to be huge. Just be sure to compensate the server with a more generous tip unless an “extra plate” fee is charged. She would have received a larger tip for two full meals, so you might want keep that in mind when calculating how much to leave. If you aim to have a leisurely conversation during the meal, order foods that can be eaten with ease. Lobster or crab in the shell, unboned fish, and pastas that may be messy or difficult to eat could make more demands on your time and concentration than you’d like. Also think twice about ordering a food that is unfamiliar to you. Unless you know how to eat an artichoke or tackle the crab claw in a bouillabaisse, stick with a dish that poses no unexpected challenges.
W ine
Dinner wine is really a condiment for food, so it’s best ordered after the menu choices have been made. The orderer (preferably the most qualified person at the table) can either choose a wine that goes best with the greater number of dishes or ask the advice of the server – or, in tonier restaurants, the wine steward (also called the sommelier or, if a woman, sommelierei. Given the wide range in character of both red and white wines, the old rule that the former should be served with meat and the latter with seafood is a little musty. An Drinks easy alternative to a shared bottle is wine ordered by the glass, which allows the diners to match the wine with their meals.
