It was before this all happened.

I have been working on buying an already existing diner and then Covid-19 hit and crippled the economy. Now I'm having second thoughts on fulfilling this venture. Is it still a good idea? Will I succeed? Do you all have any advice?

Who has the best New England Maple Syrup?
VTChef replied to a topic in New England: Cooking & Baking
So I put together the list of Vermont maple syrup producers. I'm not sure if I got all of the producers in the state but I found quite a few. I organized the list alphabetically and listed the town in which they are located. I'm sure a quick Google search will give you their websites and/or contact information if you want more information about any of their maple products. The producers in bold are ones I have personally tried and all of them are quite good. The best ones I also put a "*" next to. · Adam Gagne – Swanton, VT · Aither's Ridge Top Farm – Hyde Park, VT · Allen Family Maple – Charlotte, VT · Andersonville Maple – West Glover, VT · Apple Hill Sugarworks – Barre, VT · April's Maple LLC – Canaan, VT · Back Ledge Maple/Darlene's Delectable Delights – Johnson, VT · Backwoods Alchemy – Enosburg, VT · Baird Farm – North Chittenden, VT · Ball Brook Sugar House – Pownell, VT · Barred Woods LLC – Montgomery Center, VT · Bear Cobble Sugarworks – Bristol, VT · Beaulieu Family Maple – Sheldon, VT · Bennett Farm Maple – West Charleston, VT · Berard's Sugarhouse – Readsboro, VT · Bill's Lake Shore Maples – Newport, VT · Bobcat Hill Maple Products – Hinesburg, VT · Bourdon Maple Farm – Woodstock, VT · Boyden Valley Winery & Spirits – Cambridge, VT · Bragg Farm Sugarhouse & Gift Shop – East Montpelier, VT · Branon Family Maple Orchards – Fairfield, VT · Branon's Barrywilde Maples, LLC – Fairfield, VT · Branon's West View Maples – Fairfield, VT · Bread Loaf View Farm – Cornwall, VT · Browns River Maple LLC – Essex Junction, VT · Buck Family Maple Farm – Waterbury Center, VT · Buck Mountain Maple, Bee & Tree Farm – New Haven, VT · Burgess Sugarhouse – Underhill, VT · Bushee Family Maple Farm – Danby, VT · Charron's Family Maple – West Rutland, VT · Chauvin's Sugarhouse – Hyde Park, VT · Choice Maple – White River Junction, VT · Cold Corners Mapleworks – Fairfield, VT · Collins Sugar Bush – Newport Center, VT · Cook's Sugarhouse – Hyde Park, VT · Corey's Maple Orchard – Enosburg Falls, VT · Corse Maple Farm – Whitingham, VT · Couture's Maple Shop/B&B – Westfield, VT · Covered Bridge Maple Sugaring – Newport Center, VT · Cross Road Sugar Co. – Ira, VT · Crossroad Maple – East Fairfield, VT · Deep Mountain Maple – West Glover, VT · Deer Ridge Maple – Derby, VT · Donald Richards – Milton, VT · Dutton Berry Farm – Brookline, VT · Dwight Miller Orchards – East Dummerston, VT · E.

Who has the best New England Maple Syrup?
VTChef replied to a topic in New England: Cooking & Baking
I am currently working on a list of all maple syrup producers in Vermont if anyone is interested. I will post it here regardless once I finish it in a few days. -

The Maple Guild in Island Pond, VT is one of the best on my opinion. A former CIA instructor started it and is now the biggest producer of Maple Syrup outside of Quebec. They also do infused syrups as well such as vanilla, bourbon, etc. -
Don't knock the beaver until you try it. I was skeptical myself but it honestly does taste a lot like beef, not terribly gamey either.

Feel free to pick my brain anytime.

@Alex I hope so. Vermont is a beautiful place. I feel very lucky to be a native of this state.

I wish I had joined sooner. So many great books.

I am about 45 minutes north of Burlington

Thank you all! Typically my Fiancee does the cooking at home, however, since I've had a lot more time on my hands recently due to the pandemic, I've been doing most of the cooking at home. She suprised me tonight though with a curry which was nice.

I'm very excited to be a part of eGullet. I am a head chef in Vermont for a family run restaurant and catering business. I am currently working on a business plan for my own restaurant. I have been in the industry for 14 years. I am looking forward to connecting with all of you and expanding my culinary knowledge.
