I stumbled upon intel that Pizza Beddia will not be shutting its doors entirely. A group of investors are interested in expanding Beddia's 40 dough max, operation. He is slightly apprehensive about the partnership, but at the end of the day, he wants to do more than sling dough. So maybe, just maybe, DonRocks will find his way to Fishtown, sans salacious persuasion. Daytrippin, kat

There are several craft breweries as well as craft distillers that have popped up all over Central PA. I am in agreement that as far as the food program goes, Millworks, by leagues, surpasses Troegs. Millworks takes full advantage of seasonal offerings to craft their extensive menu. The service is well versed in all of the brews, and enthusiastically pairs them with their menu. The best time to go in my opinion, is an event tapped 3rd in the Burg. An event that offers attendants to meet artists, as well as engage in the best Harrisburg has to offer in Arts& Culture. Who knew so much was located right here in Central PA? Keystone Proud, Kat

I recently attended a book signing for Pizza Camp. This is a cookbook that Joe Beddia authored, and a foreward is written by Andrew Knowlton of Bon Appetite. He is originally from Lancaster, Pa. Lancaster culitvates good food, as well as great food people. I have been meaning to make a trip to Pizza Beddia. I will report back with my take. Hungry for 'za, kat

Dining in South-Central Pennsylvania
curiouskitkatt replied to curiouskitkatt's topic in Philadelphia Restaurants and Dining
So sorry for the delay in my response, but to answer your question, I have not been to Bel Paese in several years. Its was one of my favorites, and I need to add it back in my rotation. There are two other Italian restaurants that I may reccomend that I have dined at on multiple occasions. Moonlight in Dover is most definitely worth the trip, as well as Tutoni's on North George St. The market you speak of is New Eastern Market on the east end of town. Wonderful selections of what local purveyors have to offer fill that building every Friday afternoon. You should certainly make an effort to visit Bel Paese, and report back! I look forward to reading your review! - kat- 12 replies

Pop-Up Restaurants
curiouskitkatt replied to curiouskitkatt's topic in Philadelphia Restaurants and Dining
Taste Test : A Pop Up Reimagined I wrote about these several pop ups a few months ago. Taste Test now has a brick & mortar in the Royal Square neighborhood of York city. They serve a delicious selection of goods ranging from muffins to bagels sourced from Brooklyn. While you are indulging on those amazin' pastries, you can sip on an espresso-based beverage drawn from La Colombe coffee beans. Anyone who knows, knows La Colombe. The location will serve as a cafe offering free wifi, and home to future pop ups. There are two listed so far, with many more to follow. The kitchen" incubator" will provide a place to mentor,& facilitate successful food businesses. Students, and advisors from York College Department of Hospitality will serve as a bridge of both support& mentorship. This could possibly launch a new model for urban revitalization. I will certainly be following their progress. Bravo to York City! Hometown proud, kat -
I appears that you read the NY Post. The dining revitilazation has also been equated to" New Portlandia", if you read Paste. All good, if thats whats bring travelers to Lancaster. The city has seen an influx of artist, musicians, culinary talent(I may add have roots in Lancaster), as well as humanitarians that will no doubt receive recognition on the national stage. Locals travel away from their hometown for many reasons. I have been away for nearly twenty five years. I am home. My intent is to bring Central Pa their due. One bite at a time. I have cherished memories here in PA, and look forward to making countless more. Perhaps, I may become the food voice of Central Pa. Dare to dream. Dreamer, kat

Please do!! There are so many amazing choices. POUR on Prince, The Pressroom, John Jeffries, Ma(i)son, Luca,Square Coffee, Passenger, Barberet Bistro& Bakery, Silantra,Thistle Finch Distillery, and I could go on & on.

any dish on the progress of A Rake's Progress? You may say Im a bit curious. nothing new. I may very well be the Kevin Bacon of the food scene. I worked for Spike & Charlie back in the early 2000s. Spike certainly has come a long way. Good for him. former waitstaff, kat

I applaud Chef Silverman in his decision. In my opinion, $280 all inclusive, is a great value for not only for the food, but the experience of joy to be had by the diner. Not to mention moments that are your, & yours alone in sharing with friends about what an amazing meal that was created by a team that clearly enjoys what they do. I look forward to writing my review of Pineapple& Pearls after my birthday. I just wish it wasn't until May. So excited, kat

Welcome, Brian!! I fell off the wagon myself a few years ago, and landed in Central Pa. Several years ago I move into a once sleepy foodie city,who has exploded into an all out destination food giant. Youll find a wealth of resources here on the cite. You may even make new friends at one of the events. Above all else, you've landed in a good spot. Welcome, kat

Meet Leean & Taylor Mason the owners of both Ma(i)son, and Luca. I find the more you know the backstory of a restaurant, the more inclined you are to support the them. This is solely my opinion. I will support this family, and hope friends will follow me. Supportive, kat

I am more than happy to have people join us, regardless of they are part of the Don Rockwell community. Perhaps after our meeting, I will encourage them to chime in. After all its free, and it will expand my base at the same time. In the meantime though, they can contact me directly at katthull@gmail.com, and I am more than delighted to add them to the event. Thanks!!
