The Croton Dinner is an iconic symbol of the Village of Croton-on-Hudson in Westchester County. No eatery in the village competed with it because it offered 24 hour service and great affordable American cuisine such as hamburgers, steaks, seafood, sandwiches and fresh baked good—including killer pies by the slice and muffins. We went there early in the morning for breakfast before Saturday Lacrosse games. They had the best thick steak fries always hot and golden brown. Sometimes I would just order fries which I ate with salt and good old Heinz ketchup. Or I’d get a hot toasted corn muffin with butter and a glass of milk. The corn muffins, baked large and thick, kept me straight for two quarters of a Saturday lacrosse game out at Croton point field.
