Georgetown, Delaware is the County Seat.  It is “Sixteen Miles from Anywhere” in the Deep South of Delaware.  We live in Sussex County and Georgetown is the County Seat.  Sussex County is also referred to as “Delaware’s Dixie”.

At some time or another you might have to visit Georgetown….Some pass by Georgetown as they make their yearly or week-end trips to the Delaware Beaches. Others, make Georgetown their workplace.   And, as you drive by…have you noticed how cute the streets are looking in Georgetown?  Getting into the season, I should say!

My friend, Jody, and I stopped by because as it happened word of mouth told us that The Upper Crust was one to be checked.  They said that everything was homemade, delish, and their service was excellent.  So, we did!!  We found out that everything was that and more.

The Daily Menu has specials like Cellblock Specials….it is by the Courthouse, of course.  On that day I had their Quiche which was bacon, broccoli and cheddar, with a nice bold cup of coffee.

Busy in the kitchen getting ready for the day.  We tasted their soup…so delicious, but it was not ready yet.

Quiches were being prepared.

Dessert anyone?  At times that’s all that is needed with a cup of coffee or tea…seasonal cheesecake!

Events:

The Upper Crust will be transforming their herb garden into The Great Upper Crust Decorated Pumpkin Patch.  Pumpkin registration is at The Upper Crust at 7 East Market St. in Gerogetown.  Registered pumpkins will have their picture taken and posted on The Upper Crust Facebook Page (Upper Crust Georgetown).  Show your creativity and register your pumpkin until October 29th.  They will judged at close of business on that day.  The 1st, 2nd or 3rd….could be yours!
