Willow Street Restaurant

 So I went to this diner, when I was house sitting for my brother in July.

I ordered the turkey dinner, it was turkey covered in gravy with stuffing underneath.  The dish was good.  It came with two sides, macaroni and cheese and French fries.  They were both good.  They also have a salad bar but I didn't get it.

Then I went there again and had breakfast.  So I ordered the cheese omelet and deep fried potatoes.  They were both good.

Spring House Brewing Company

So I went to this brewery and they had a wide selection of beers.  I choose a lager and it was good.

So for food I got a pulled pork sandwich and fries.  They were both good.

2026 World Cup

 So as long as I have a job by next summer which I expect to be the case.  I'm planning on going to world cup games in Philadelphia and games in east Rutherford NJ (MetLife stadium) on weekends and I'm planning on going to the final (East Rutherford) since its so close on July 19th.

Philly is hosting 6 games I don't know how many the New Jersey location is hosting.

Agape Cafe

So I went to this place with my mom and we ordered food.  My mom got the grilled cheese with fries and she liked it.  I got the chicken bacon ranch wrap with chips.  I liked it.

Smokehouse BBQ & Brews

 So I went to this barbecue restaurant and got some brisket and 1/3 rack of ribs.  The brisket was tender and moist.  The ribs tasted peppery but it wasn't overwhelming.  I liked the brisket more than the ribs.

The sides were potato salad and fries.  Both were good.  The $3.50 for the coke seemed a little excessive.

Park City Diner

 I went to this diner for breakfast.  I thought the menu was expansive.  I ordered the chipped beef casserole and it was good.  The casserole featured home fries on the bottom and the chipped beef gravy on top.  Then, scrambled eggs on top of the gravy with cheese on top, very good.

So I went to this diner for supper and had the salmon and shrimp scampi.  The salmon and shrimp tasted great.  The sauce they put on the salmon was tasty.  The sides were fries and corn nuggets, they both tasted great.

El Serrano

 This is a really good peruvian restaurant, they have really good fajitas but I decided to try a peruvian dish.  The dish I choose is Pollo Parilla which is 2 charbroiled chicken breasts seasoned, it tasted great.  The meal also included, white rice, and vegatables, they tasted delicious.

Route 30 Diner

 So I went to this diner after church.  I sat at the bar.

I ordered the country fried steak meal.  It came with French fries and onion rings.  The steak was good, even though it was medium sized.  The fries were a large portion, they tasted good and the onion rings were large.  They tasted good.

If the country fried steak was bigger the rating would be better but I guess that's what you get for $13.
