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’”
Our Dim Sum Tradition Lives On in the Suburbs
My wife and I do a lot of our local dining out in Media, Pennsylvania, the seat of Delaware County in the southwestern suburbs of Philadelphia. We sometimes combine dinner with a visit to downtown Media’s Trader Joe’s, and that was the situation Friday evening when we opted for a pre-shopping meal at Tom’s DimContinue reading “Our Dim Sum Tradition Lives On in the Suburbs”
Johnny’s Back and Hasn’t Lost a Step
One of my favorite places to post on since starting this blog has been Johnny Paisano’s of Springfield, PA. It was a charming little restaurant less than five minutes from where I live that served excellent cheesesteaks and a wide array of other sandwiches and entrees. My wife and I used to eat there periodicallyContinue reading “Johnny’s Back and Hasn’t Lost a Step”
My First Cheesesteak of 2024 – From Van Horn’s of Media, PA
It’s been a while since my last post. I hit the proverbial wall with regard to eating cheesesteaks and most of the other types of food I had been writing about for over two years and have been in a sort of self-imposed detox for the past couple months. Blogging had started feeling like aContinue reading “My First Cheesesteak of 2024 – From Van Horn’s of Media, PA”
Trying the new Steak at a Favorite Burger Joint
I’ve already raved about Relish of Milmont Park, PA, in several earlier posts. They are the sort of old-school hot dog and hamburger joint that I’ve always idealized and sought out while traveling, but never expected to have within 15 minutes of where I live. While I may have mentioned in one of those earlierContinue reading “Trying the new Steak at a Favorite Burger Joint”
A Return Visit to One of Delco’s Best Steak Shops
It’s taken a very filling seven months to do it, but I’ve finally reached the goal I laid out in February of revisiting each of last year’s top ten cheesesteak shops along with the five honorable mentions in preparation for putting out a revised top 20 list this November. The last stop I had toContinue reading “A Return Visit to One of Delco’s Best Steak Shops”
Working My Way Through the Menu at Relish
During this past spring I wrote a couple raves about a new hot dog and burger stand called Relish that opened in Milmont Park, PA, during the spring. It took a very busy schedule and a lot of will-power to prevent me from returning sooner, but I finally made it back there Wednesday to continueContinue reading “Working My Way Through the Menu at Relish”
