  I was pretty happy with our decision to check out Gamper's when we were in Moose Lake the other day.
  
  We were seated right away and the hostess as well as our server were both very friendly.  The atmosphere at Gamper's is pretty neat with all of the antiques and old signs covering the walls.  The service was good and everyone in our party was quite pleased with our  meal choices.  
  
  Most of the meals came with a choice of side... of which there was quite a selection.  There were even several different styles of fries from which to choose... the server gave the two year old in our group his fry choices "Would you like crinkle, curly, or waffle fries?"  He thought about it for a few seconds and said "Blue!"  Unfortunately, they do not serve blue fries, but he was quite content with the crinkle fries.
  
  I ordered a pulled pork sandwich with a side salad.  The food arrived quickly and was well presented.  The salad was good and fresh.  The sandwich came out piping hot and I received a couple of different options for the sandwich toppings... both BBQ sauce as well as their cranberry horseradish sauce.  Both were good.  The cranberry horseradish sauce was not too strong and just had a hint of spiciness.  
  
  A couple of burgers and sandwiches were also ordered and everyone reported that they were very happy with their meals.  The kids even got a surprise ice cream treat once they finished their meals!  They were excited!
  
  There were quite a few other selections on the menu that I would be interested in trying in the future.

  When I was a kid, "Moose Lake" only meant one thing - that's where the state loony bin was.  Today the facility is a medium level prison for men.  I guess there are probably some loonies there still.   Located 44 miles south of downtown Duluth, (110 miles north of Minneapolis) on I-35 (and US 61, the highway revisited by one of Duluth's favorite sons, Bob Dylan), Moose Lake is a pretty little burg with about 2700 people.
  
  It's about 5 miles from a place I spent a lot of summers at during my salad days, the YMCA Camp at Sturgeon Lake, MN.  Looking at their website, I see it's over $400 a week now;  I think it was $25 during my day.  You should send your kids there.  A good healthy experience.
  
  As is going to Gampers, a family fun center located just North of town on Highway 61.
  
  The Minnesota Burger Posse headed to Gamper's to catch another show of Todd Eckart, and of course, to sample the burgers.  Head of the Burger Posse, Kawika, had the Chipotle Peppercheese Burger, and was quite impressed with the quality of the ground beef, which the owner said was "legacy beef" from Wisconsin.   Chipotle mustard on the side.
