This is the interior looking at the round bottle part. There's a drop ceiling and the upper part of the bottle is used for storage.
I love restaurants that have paper placemats that advertise the local businesses...
Gun-running, open-heart surgery...what ever it takes.
I like how Mike modestly slips in a "probably": "If I can't fix it, it probably can't be fixed"
"Hello? Anytime Plumbing? I've got a leaking faucet during the Renaissance."**loosely based on a Steven Wright joke.
Go out on a limb? That's gold, Jerry, solid gold!
We're big fans of novelty or programmatic architecture... you know, those kooky buildings made in the shapes of giant animals, food items or other things, and there's a dandy in the nice, southern Massachusetts town of Raynham: the Milk Bottle Restaurant, an eatery housed inside a 60-foot tall, 21-foot wide wooden milk bottle. Built in 1926, the Milk Bottle is a local favorite that has been run by the father-daughter team of Joe and Jamie Losciuto since 2001. Joe operated an electronics business in Boston for 30 years, sold it, and bought the Bottle as a Christmas gift for his family. Jamie had worked at the Bottle for years before the purchase and other family members have been involved over the years. They serve hard ice cream and diner fare. We had a delightful lunch there and it couldn't have been better...good portions, good prices, great service. This is the kind of place there just aren't enough of: a living, breathing, authentic roadside icon that makes you smile and want to come back again and again. It's the dairy thing we need these days and when it comes to milk bottle restaurants, everybody loves Raynham.
