The last time I had a Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout was about two years ago when The ROK stopped over for a few drinks. I remember having one of these, plus two or three more beers. I also remember feeling quite intoxicated after that last beer. It wasn’t […]
I’m still a relative newbie when it comes to craft beer. Great Lakes Brewing Company was one of my Philly Beer Week discoveries when I had there Elliot Ness Amber Lager at Vargas Bar. Since it was such a good beer, I thought I should branch out and […]
Earlier this week, Limpd and I decided that we would have lunch on Friday at The Oyster House in Center City. The Oyster House, which opened in 2009, is located on the 1500 block of Sansom Street (1516 Sansom Street to be exact). The restaurant is housed in […]
Prior to the 2010 Philly Beer Week, I’d never heard of Ballast Point Brewing Company. My first exposure to their beers was when I had a Sculpin IPA at Good Dog Bar. It was love at first sip! I had my second at Devil’s Den later that summer, […]

The kids were away, so Mom and Dad get to go out and play! This was the plan… Friday night on South Street in Philly. Dinner at Percy Street BBQ. See The Frames play live at The TLA. I was looking forward to some good BBQ because I […]
This past Monday night, I was cordially invited to Villa dello Alemonger to watch the Eagles/Redskins game on ESPN’s Monday Night Football. In preparation for the evening’s festivities, I walked over to The Foodery during my lunch hour to see if they had anything interesting in stock. I […]
