Food Review – QT Vietnamese Sandwich, Philly Chinatown
About 100 feet from the Chinese “Friendship Arch” at 10th and Arch Streets in Philadelphia’s Chinatown is a tiny “hole in the wall” Vietnamese takeout shop called QT Vietnamese Sandwich. Banh Mi, or the Vietnamese Hoagie as it is in known in Philly, is their specialty, and they […]
Hangover Cures
Drinking is fun. Hangovers are not. There is no real cure for a hangover, but there are ways to minimize the damage. Here is my regimen: After an extended drinking session, you need something in your belly to absorb the alcohol. Breakfast food always works. Eggs, home fries, […]
Beer Review – Smuttynose Robust Porter
Since fall is right around the corner, and since today’s temperature hasn’t gone above 75 (first time in over 2 months!), I thought I would change things up and review a dark beer. I usually like Smuttynose beers, so I’m going with their Robust Porter for today’s brew […]
Beer Review – Saison Dupont

Beer Review – Penn Pilsner
It’s Wednesday night and with my corporate travel program, I had just enough miles to qualify for a trip to Pittsburgh. Actually, I had a quick overnight trip to the Burgh for work and found myself in the Ruth’s Chris bar with a little time on my hands. […]
Beer Review – Lindeman’s Lambictacular
A new distributor opened in the neighborhood and allows for the purchase of split six packs. As I perused the aisles, I was drawn to other offerings from Merchant du Vin. Always a fan of their Samuel Smith’s, I thought I would give the Lindemans Lambics a try. […]
