dr.com Picnics - It Has Been a Long Time
curiouskitkatt replied to John William G's topic in Events and Gatherings
I checked dates. Month of June is already booked. The closest date available is July 1st. Act quickly, these dates are going fast. I just checked backed and that date is no longer available, the next one is July 29th -
I guess it depends on what type if leftovers you have. When I moved into my first apartment, I owned neither a TV or a microwave , and managed to reheat leftovers and read quite a bit more than I do currently. I think all you need are a few essential pans, & a depth of creativity.

Would this had been the same evening that the former POTUS & FLOTUS were celebrating a birthday meal at A Rake ‘s Progress?

Dining in Lancaster
curiouskitkatt replied to curiouskitkatt's topic in Philadelphia Restaurants and Dining
Philly food critic has given his blessing to Lancaster. Perhaps now, more people will venture to this agriculture rich city that provides an abundance of resources to not only restaurants directly here , but in larger metropolis like Philly, & NYC.- 47 replies

I too was excited for my first visit to this food hall, but was justly more impressed with this one much more like Union Market. I have yet to venture to Mt Vernon for their offerings, but I here nothing but delicious rave reviews. I can personally report the smoked mussels that are on the menu at Neopol Savory Smokery are worthy of licking your fingers shamelessly. They are that good. Although I am not vegan, one of the best chocolates I have had can be found at Pure Chocolate by Jinji. She serves a dark chocolate sea salt truffle that are incredibly decadent. I too share your fiancee's take on the Arepas. I wanted to like them but the flavors were clumpy. The dough was heavy and the flavors were not executed all that well. I met a few locals and they shared the same sentiment about R. House as a whole. They intent is there, but the execution falls a bit short. Its a good thing the residents of Baltimore have a few different options to choose from for food halls.

This right here has me at a loss. Although my home resides in South Central Pa, and the acceptance of a writing gig about the beloved city , I would gladly CHOOSE to live in Philly. We deserved that win over the Patriots. The Eagles rose to the challenge, and earned a victory in the form of the Lombardi trophy. Sure this won't change how the inhabitants are viewed, but it certainly should. Don't underestimate the hunger to prove the naysayers wrong. Philly, Philly, kat

I didn’t press for intel. He is a good friend of a restaurant owner that I personally know in Lancaster. I was surprised he answered so quickly , to be honest. So I don’t know the answer to your question. What I can speculate on , is that his expanded place might have more options other than his pizzas. A few months back, Joe did a pop up at Hungry Pigeon. Possibly the future menu at his newly expanded spot later this year.

One thing I have always learned, never assume. I talked to Joe directly, right after I saw your post, and he said he is opening a bigger pizzeria later this year. The current location will be dunzo as of March 31st, but not Pizzeria Beddia.

It is happening. We'll the process has begun. There is a extensive approval panel I must be reviewed by, so I am not completely out of the woods, yet. I have my first deadline, Feb 9th, to submit 2 chapters. I am excited, and nervous at the same time. Time to buckle down, and start writing. If there are any noteworthy places to dine, please chime in. This guide will be a little bit of everything, and dining being a small part of it. I am heading to Philly this weekend to hit up a couple spots, so if you have recommendations, please let me know. Deadline. Wow, I thought I would never say those words. Don't ever quit your day dream folks.

This news comes as a shock to me. I worked with the Ferhat at Corduroy for a few years, and hold him in high regard. I have never met someone who embodied good hospitality the way he did. He is a class act. Whenever I would find myself back in DC, I would always pop in for dinner at Corduroy. A few months ago, I had dinner at a different spot. I went to support an old friend. I am sure this decision was a difficult one for him, but I doubt this will be the last we will see of my good friend.

Wow. I just had chills run down my spine reading the edited caption to this topic. This has a very REAL potential of happening. My strength is finding spots that others would otherwise miss. This applies to food spots, or just awesome places in general. Where I could really use help with are compiling historical places & background. I know there are quite of you history buffs out there, so please point me in the right direction. I already know the line I will be writting on the inside flap for who I will thank. This is happening, people. I have never been so determined about landing a gig. Everything I have been doing has led up this amazing opportunity, and I will focus on making this OUR best endeavor yet!!! Beyond grateful, kat

Its everything Rocks. The book will be marketed as a travel guide. I was thinking, “Visiting Philadelphia” too. But I trust you will move it to whichever forum will garner the most views. Yes, food/history/art/landmarks is what Im thinking. This will give everyone an idea of what I am working on!

I may have the opportunity to write an collection of places not to be missed in Philly. With the wealth of the posters in this forum, I am asking for a little help. Please chime in where I should visit, and places that are not to be missed. The spots can range from where to eat, where to dine, where the best public bathroom is , think unusual, think funky, think like a local. Please and thank you for all your suggestions. Once I am chosen to write this book, I will personally throw a party and invite everyone to celebrate my very first publication. This is our opportunity to go public. It is with the support of everyone that I have met along the way, including a few of you in this forum, that will encourage me to crush this challenge. I plan on KILLIN' It. 1st time, kat
