Pinnacle is the top of a small mountain in Warren, Connecticut that provides a panoramic view of Lake Waramaug, the second largest natural lake in the state and the location of the summer village of the historic Weantinock tribe. The Weantinock were a large, powerful tribe whose homelands extended from ca. present Cornwall and Kent on the north to at least Brookfield and New Fairfield on the south, Warren and Washington on the east, and into New York State on the west. Lake Waramaug, The Pinnacle, and the surrounding area formed an 18th century Weantinock reservation of about 20,000 acres, created in 1720 after the tribe lost most of their homelands to the south and west. Named Waramaug’s Reserve, or Ramaug, after the tribe’s charismatic and powerful grand sachem who brokered the deal, the land quickly passed into English hands after Waramaug’s death “under equally shady circumstances”. By 1756, the reservation had disappeared.

This is as French as it gets this side the Atlantic. Just perfect for a croque madame or crepe.
It’s a delicious delight run by a Frenchman who’s also got a restaurant by the same name in NYC.
