Baked slices of potato with cheese, bacon, and scallions. Works great as an appetizer or even a side dish.

Restaurant Review: Edgewood Cafe (Yardley, PA)
If you ever find yourself hungry in the middle-of-nowhere town of Yardley, Pennsylvania, you could do much worse than a stop at the Edgewood Cafe. We were only in the area because we decided to spend the night after a day in New Hope. There is a Hampton Inn a couple of miles away, and…

2 days until St. Patrick’s Day… I’m not sure what specifically makes this Irish, but the concoction known as “Boxty” can be found on many pub menus. Potato pancakes topped with cheese and bacon, served up at the Shannon Rose.

4 days until St. Patrick’s Day… Let’s start off the countdown with this Irish Breakfast from Kildare’s Public House in West Chester, Pennsylvania. Though the service and a few other things were off that day, this food was spot on. It includes all the mainstays for such a meal: fried eggs, rashers, bangers, white and…

My FAMOUS bacon-bourbon-brown sugar Brussels Sprouts. So good that even haters of the much-maligned vegetable will enjoy!
Restaurant Review: Whistling Willie’s (Cold Spring, NY)

After browsing at one menu after another online, we decided that based on price and selection, Whistling Willie’s seemed our best bet in this…

An Oktoberfest dinner we had two weeks ago. There was chicken schnitzel, mushroom gravy, spaetzel, and German potato salad. Non-German dishes included my mom’s spinach pie, rolls, and my homemade garlic butter. There was also mom’s German apple cake for dessert. Oh, and plenty of Riesling. What a spread it was!
Restaurant Review: Outback Steakhouse (Middletown, NJ)
I rarely write about chain restaurants on this blog unless the experience is ultra positive (or negative). I had been sitting on a $100 gift card to Outback Steakhouse for the last six months and finally used it a couple of weeks ago. It must have been my first time there since I was a…
Our Anthony Bourdain Memorial BBQ
My co-workers-turned-good-friends from Brookdale are food lovers. Not just in the eating sense but with cooking, exploring, and trying new things. For the five years I’ve worked there, we have always talked about having a cookout. It was one of those really good ideas which just never came to fruition because of everyone’s schedules. However,…
Restaurant Review: Ripper’s Pub (Bethlehem, PA)
Bethlehem is loaded with many fine restaurants. That much is apparent. But as Justin and I walked around town (this being my first-ever visit), nothing spoke to us. We finally found one place that we wanted to try only to realize a few moments later that it was closed. It was a Monday after all….
