Relax. Enjoy with some mellow music or with someone close. Put up your feet.

This was an awesome meal. I delude myself that it’s low carb, so not unhealthy. I didn’t gain any weight. So other than the 76ers losing their playoff game, it was a perfect night.

I’ve been wanting to eat at Vida and Comida for quite a while. I love their food and wish there were more authentic Spanish restaurants and chefs around my homes. I feel that Spain has taken over the spot of “top countries for innovative cuisine.” I’ve always been a fan of paella and flan, butContinue reading “Vida and Comida in Ambler, PA”

Went to dinner last night with Marla and David, our daughter and son-in-law. We always want to treat them to a special dinner, so we took them to a very special restaurant. We have been following the career of Alex Cormier for at least 30 years. We first discovered him in Philly at his firstContinue reading “Broadmoor in Lambertville just keeps getting better!”

This dish has been a staple in our home since Barb discovered an article with recipes from Patricia Welles in Bon Appetit or Gourmet a number of years ago. The article included a wonderful soup recipe involving three grains (wheat berries, black lentils, and something else). Both recipes are delicious, not too hard to make,Continue reading “Patricia Welles’ Pork Tenderloin with Bell Peppers and Chipotle”

Went out last night with our friends Mike and Lynn. Always a treat to be in their company. They came to our house first for happy hour and Mike brought his drill to wipe my mobile drives. He’s a man with skills! We got to the restaurant and, though we wanted to enjoy their wonderfulContinue reading “Vecchia Osteria by Pasquale in Newtown”

Went out last night with our friends Zola and Sue. We chose to go to my favorite restaurant in the entire region. That includes Hopewell township, Princeton, Bucks County, Hamilton township, Hunterdon and Mercer counties. That’s saying a lot! The owners, Rory (in front and baking) and Aaron (hanging in the kitchen) have been feedingContinue reading “The Blue Bottle Cafe in Hopewell, NJ”

Last minute plans for dinner with Uncle Ronnie and Aunt Abbie. We met them between our homes at an excellent BYOB that we frequented before Covid. It’s good to be vaccinated and getting back to regular dining out. We still favor outdoor dining, but it’s more an Al Fresco thing than a “saving your life”Continue reading “Osteria Saporino in Huntington Valley”

When I was a kid we’d go to the movies for Saturday matinees. 25 cents. After the movie we’d go across the street to a candy store for penny candies and, if we had and extra nickel, a creamsicle. It was vanilla ice cream covered with orange ice. A real gourmet delight. One day IContinue reading “The Creamsicle”

Barb and I were tired from running around all day. We wanted to go out near our home, but felt like eating something upscale and she wanted fish. In a town full of pizza parlors and Chinese restaurants, there’s only one choice: UVA. We’ve been going to UVA regularly since they opened, about 7 orContinue reading “UVA Ristorante Italian In Richboro”
