My recent column about Back Porch Café’s upcoming season - number 48, to be exact - set off a bit of an e-tussle regarding other longtime eateries here at the beach. A number of emails I received centered on the Robin Hood restaurant and its family of associated (yet long-gone) eateries.

The Robin Hood became the Robin Hood in 1968 when it was acquired by Harry and Niki Tsoukalas. Sadly, we lost Harry several years ago, but his legacy lives on. The Robin Hood was originally opened in 1948 as the Robert Lee restaurant. Harry didn’t want to make waves in the rather insular Rehoboth Beach of ‘68, so he changed the name . but only just a bit.
