As I’ve alluded to periodically, I keep a list of steak shops, pizzerias and other restaurants that I plan on visiting and posting about at some future point. One of the places that’s been on that list for a fairly long time is Gentili’s Pizza and Steaks of Exton, Pennsylvania. Exton is a bit ofContinue reading “New Pizza and Steak Shop Earns High Marks”

A Delightful Italian Lunch in Delco
My friend and former colleague, Brenda, and I recently got together for one of our periodic lunches. While I usually pick the restaurant, she asked if I’d be interested in checking out a Delaware County Italian restaurant that is a relatively short drive from both of us and I agreed after checking out their menuContinue reading “A Delightful Italian Lunch in Delco”
Cheesesteak and Pizza Outing Cut in Half
Back in the spring of last year, I posted on what was then the hottest purveyor of cheesesteaks in the Philly region – Johnny’s Pizza of Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. The steak I had there was good enough for me to rank it in the upper half of my top twenty list. Yet in light ofContinue reading “Cheesesteak and Pizza Outing Cut in Half”
Brisket with a Middle Eastern Accent
While Middle-Eastern has never been among my favorite cuisines, I do crave it every once in a while. One such instance occurred earlier this month, and a little online research led me in the direction of Desert Rose in Media, Pennsylvania. Media is a short ride from us, so we eat in its downtown, whichContinue reading “Brisket with a Middle Eastern Accent”
Not a Lunch for Carb Counters
In the summer of 2023 I posted about a pair of fantastic bakeries in the Philly region – K’Far Cafe in Center City and Ardour Bakery and Coffee in Ridley Park. It took much longer than anticipated for me to return to Ardour given its relative proximity to where I live, but it finally happenedContinue reading “Not a Lunch for Carb Counters”
Finding a New Go-to Cheesesteak in My Area
It’s been at least a couple years since the two steak shops that had been my go-to spots when I craved a cheesesteak and wanted to stay close to home took turns for the worse. One moved further from where I live and no longer qualified for a quick pick-up on short notice, while theContinue reading “Finding a New Go-to Cheesesteak in My Area”
My New Local Go-To Cheesesteak
A couple years ago I highlighted two cheesesteaks as my go-to options when the craving hits and I don’t want to leave my immediate area. Unfortunately, one – Johnny Paisano’s – has moved just far enough away to no longer qualify as being ‘in the neighborhood.’ The other was sold and the food, including theirContinue reading “My New Local Go-To Cheesesteak”
Returning to The Original Clam Tavern
A bonus sidebar on my most recent burger can be found at the bottom of this post. While I may have included a few photos from The Original Clam Tavern of Clifton Heights, Pennsylvania, in a past composite post, I’ve never devoted an entire post to them. Of all the restaurants in that part ofContinue reading “Returning to The Original Clam Tavern”
Juicy as Jaye P. Morgan
With the Eagles’ playoff seed locked in and the season’s final game being meaningless, my wife and I took advantage of a free Sunday afternoon to venture out to a pizza and sandwich shop that has been on my radar for a while. Pop’s Pizzeria of Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, has been receiving its fair shareContinue reading “Juicy as Jaye P. Morgan”
Trying an Italian Hoagie Known as the ‘Godfather’
The outing to a highly regarded pizzeria that I alluded to at the end of my last post didn’t come off Saturday as planned. Unfortunately, one of the people I was supposed to meet there was under the weather. That left me needing to hastily come up with a Plan B that I felt confidentContinue reading “Trying an Italian Hoagie Known as the ‘Godfather’”
