I arrived in Boulder last Thursday, full of that East Coast “rush”. I don’t know why. I felt like I was talking and walking a mile a minute. Crazy.
I know that in some of my posts I always say to the people visiting the Delaware and Maryland Beaches to “kick back and relax”. Well, that is exactly what I did, even though it took me more than a few hours to get used to the altitude and the dry air.
Boulder is unique. As you approach the city, the first thing that comes into view are the Flatirons, which are the background to this college town.
What a difference!! A few hours before, I was in Delaware, at sea level, and now I was 5,700 feet high.
No, my oxygen level was fine and I was not huffing and puffing as I made my way to Jill’s Restaurant for a drink and a couple of appetizers to tie my group over until dinner time.
Jill’s Restaurant is a modern bistro that encourages organic farming practices. The restaurant showcases contemporary cuisine with a Mediterranean accent.
It seats 70, has a full bar, and a beautiful private room, called the Honey-Onyx Room. You may dine outdoors, weather permitting overlooking the Flatiron Mountains. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
We sat at the bar. The restaurant was crowded since it was graduation week-end at University of Colorado, right in town.
We just wanted a few drinks and a little something to eat. We chose the Fat Tire Steamed Mussels, with roasted crostini. They were delicious and the broth was to die for. Fat Tire is an amber ale beer brewed in Fort Collins, Colorado. We also had the Veggie Spring Rolls with a Chili Ginger Sauce, which were very good, as well. We chatted, relaxed and took notice of how pretty this bistro was. The main dinning room had an open kitchen so you could appreciate the comings and goings of a busy restaurant. The whole set up was very comfortable.
Jill’s Restaurant is located at 900 Walnut Street. Tel. 720-406-7399. The website is http://www.jillsdining.com. Please check out the website because there are different events coming up during the month of May and other pertinent information.
The restaurant is in the St. Julien Hotel & Spa. This hotel is a sophisticated retreat. It has a serene atmosphere accentuaded by the gorgeous mountain views. Their tel. is 720-406-9696 or 720-406-8218. Website is www.stjulien.com.
It is beautiful with an attentive staff.
Yes, that is how my stay in Boulder started…..talk to you later….

A Brunch is the perfect start for any day, but Sunday is the day we usually pick for this type of eating. Here, in Rehoboth Beach, a lot of the restaurants will be serving brunch on Easter Sunday just like everywhere else.
But why is it that we have this obsession with brunch? Is it because we are too lazy to cook on a Sunday; kill two birds with one stone? Breakfast and lunch? To tell you the truth on Sunday, I want to keep it simple. You can call it anything you want but to me having a good, full bodied, cup of coffee, seasonal fruits, baked goods and Rapa Scrapple, is what I would call the perfect brunch.
Rapa Scrapple? What is it? Well, it is one of my favorite breakfast meats. Rapa is the brand name and to me there is no other like it. Scrapple is a pork product and the company is in Bridgeville, Delaware. Two brothers started this company in 1926; Ralph and Paul Adams. The plant is still in Bridgeville and it is the largest producer of scrapple in the world.
I had the first taste of Rapa Scrapple in the island of Exuma, Bahamas, in 1974. We were visiting friends and they had brought scrapple from Baltimore, MD. I have loved it ever since and my family is a big fan, as well.
My favorites are the original and the hot and spicy. I like it thin and crispy; definitely, not mushy. I hope Missy is reading this blog, because I know she likes scrapple as much as I do. She might even comment on the blog.
I also like scrapple sandwiches. Thin bread, not toasted and a little bit of ketchup, would make it the perfect scrapple sandwich.
Mark your calendar because this year’s Apple Scrapple Festival in Bridgeville will be Friday, October 8th and Saturday, October 9th. For more info. please visit their website www.rapascrapple.com.
Living at the beach, usually means that you have a couple of guests at your house from time to time. I know that I go the extra mile when I have guests. I really do want them to feel welcomed. So how do I make them feel special? Read on…
Mimosa
Chilled champagne and orange Juice. If you do not have time to squeeze your orange juice, the market has great choices. Just get a good one. Put 1/2 and 1/2 in champagne glasses and serve.
Kir Royale
A bottle of chilled champagne or sparkling wine. This is such a simple and timeless drink.
1 part creme de cassis
5 parts Champagne
Pour creme de cassis into a champagne glass and gentley pour champagne on top.
Easy Caramel Rolls
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
2 loaves frozen bread dough, thaw out and cut in pieces and placed in a well greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
Melt:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 Tbsps. milk
1 small package vanilla pudding (not instant)
Pour over dough. Let it rise for about 3 hours.
Bake for about 30 minutes.
Let it stand a few minutes and then turn out on a board, cut and serve.
Ground Ham on Pineapple Slices
Combine:
2 cups cooked ground ham
2 tsps. prepared mustard
4 tsps. mayonnaise
8 drained pineapple slices
Spread mixture on the pineapple slices. You want to put enough on each one to make a mound but cover the whole pineapple slice.
Bake slices in a greased pan in a pre-heated 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes or so.
The combination of the ham and pineapple is delicious. It is a quick meal, as well. Very versatile; not just for breakfast.
Enjoy it with friends; it tastes better that way….Happy Easter!!

Once again, I will have to repeat that some say passion is your key to success and others say that if you love what you do then you will never work a day in your life.
It was late in the afternoon, and you know how pretty it was. I felt like I wanted a cup of coffee. Since I was near Lewes I ventured into Notting Hill, which is a coffee roastery. But it is more than a coffee shoppe, read on…
Nobody was in the shoppe when I came in and it was around 4:15 p.m. They were closing at 5 p.m.
In a few of my past posts I have mentioned the winning dispositions of some business owners. You know from the moment they look at you that they are friendly; a smile says it all. And, that is just what happened when I met Amy Felker who is the owner and roaster of Notting Hill. I only met her briefly but that is all it took.
She has been known to say “Most people don’t like what they do, but I love what I do”. That is her passion!
Notting Hill is located in the center of Lewes, Delaware, right on 124 Second Street. Tel. toll free 888-99-Latte or 302-645-0733. Website is www.nottinghillcoffee.com. E-mail address is amy@nottinghillcoffee.com.
Notting Hill started with a partnership but since 2003 she has been the sole owner and roaster.
She roasts herself every single bean. You know, coffee roasting is a chemical process by which flavor components are either created, balanced, or altered in a way that augments the flavor, acidity, aftertaste and body of the coffee.
A lot of Amy’s flavors and all of her blends are owned by her; they are unique and you will not find them anywhere else.
So, after Amy roasts her beans then they are bagged. All bags are stamped by her and her staff. Notting Hill distributes wholesale, as well. Amy can make thousands of different beverages at the shop and more than 135 different types of coffee are on the shelf. She really runs the day to day operation of the shoppe.
Depending on the year, she can sell 25,000-40,000 lbs. of coffee.
Coffee has been enjoyed for hundreds of years. Business and coffee go hand in hand. It is a favorite around the world and has been for a long time regardless of how or where it is served.
That tiny bean is responsible for the employment of thousands of people.
Notting Hill is a very warm and cozy coffee shop. But there are so many other delectables sold here. You should know that just like the coffees, all baked goods and soups and sandwiches are baked or cooked in the shoppe.
The shoppe opens at 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. During the summer season there will be extended hours.
Some customers come for specific baked goods like the Blueberry Puffing Muffin, which is like a blueberry muffin inside a pastry. Just check the picture yourself.
Another favorite is the Ooey Gooey which is a long twisted cinnamon pastry with cinnamon and sugar. I did not see one, but I can see it being similar to a Spanish churro, if you have ever had one, except this one is twisted.
You can find cookies, muffins, scones; everything that goes well with coffee. But, coffee is not the only beverage served here; there are smoothies and blended iced teas, as well.
There is a great assortment for the tea drinker. Loose teas to be bought to take home or just to be enjoyed sitting in one of the tables inside the shoppe, while you read one of the newspapers available for the customers.
On the Board you will find an Espresso Menu, as well as a Menu consisting of the daily offerings. Another small board will announce the Organic Java of the Day. And a third board will be a Cocoa Menu with all kinds of cocoa drinks, even sugar free ones.
The whole time I was there, Linda, who also works at Notting Hill was busy getting ready to close for the day, but customers started to come in and she graciously took care of them.
As I was sitting sipping my coffe I started to remember the Puerto Rican coffee that was always so well known, and all the coffee plantations around the island, now Paradores or Inns. Some of the coffees from Puerto Rico are Cafe Yaucono, Cafe Crema, Cafe Rico, Cafe Pilon, Yauco Selecto and Cafe Alto Grande. Puerto Rican coffee is rich and full-bodied.
A few things worth mentioning are: Some of the coffees available at Notting Hill are bird friendly, Smithsonian certified and Rainforest Alliance certified.
You should really visit the website above mentioned. You can place orders, check what they have besides coffee and most of all get a sense of what Amy is all about.
If you are visiting our Delaware Beaches check this shoppe out. Their new omelette in a muffin will be making its debut soon.
As Notting Hill gets into the month of April they are so excited since April 30th will be their 20th anniversary. Congratulations!!
That’s all for tonight…See you and talk to you later….
February 23rd, 2010
I found myself at the BWI Airport in Baltimore, Maryland. We all say it is Baltimore, but, really the right address for the airport is Linthicum, Maryland. We arrived with more than enough time, so now, what? Please, I don’t want to eat at the airport. Even though there are airports known to have very good eateries, I really have not found any.
So, it was nice to see that right by the Southwest ticket counters there was a new restaurant. It is actually called DuClaw Brewing Co. It looked lively and definitely a visual attraction. It had a good menu but, unfortunately, since my husband has to eat gluten free, most of the items had gluten. So, why bother? Did not try it but it is worth mentioning.
We went right through Security. I guess not too many people were flying on Sunday. BWI looked clean, bright and organized.
After going through Security we found ourselves on Concourse B so we kept walking and found out a colorful restaurant called Zona Mexicana. Zona Mexicana is very clean and modern. It has a full bar with flat screen t.v.s arround the restaurant and plenty of seating; bar tables or benches. The music was pretty good too.
If you are there early you can have their American Platter breakfast which is scrambled eggs, ranchero potatoes, bacon with fresh fruit and wheat toast but if you want to kick it up a notch you can have it Mexicana style, topping it with fresh salsa and queso fresco. Queso fresco is found in every Mexican restaurant recently. Breakfast is served from 6:00 a.m. until 10:30 p.m.
My husband and I had the Border Burger. It was very good, made to order and a very large portion. You can see it on the picture. I ordered a side salad that came in a taco shell. Originally, my husband wanted to have the tacos. The shell is made out of corn so a person with a gluten allergy can have them. But, the problem was that Zona Mexicana makes their own shells and they are fried in the same oil in which other foods are fried in. This is what usually restaurants do, and it is something you have to have in mind when ordering.
 Border Burger Even though our Concourse was A, which was on the other side, I am glad we went and checked this new restaurant. I am passing it along to you since this is an international airport and you might find yourselves in it one of these days.
Our waiter, Dave was very nice and I asked him about the restaurant since I had never heard of it. Apparently there is a connection with DuClaw Brewing Co.; the owners are looking for another place within the airport to put another eatery, so stay tuned.
Who would have thought that maybe these restaurants could become as popular as restaurants in other airports throughout the U.S. as well as in major cities train stations?
Zona Mexicana has fast and friendly service while you wait anxiously to board. Kid-friendly, as well.
It is open from Sundays to Fridays from 5 a.m. until 10 p.m. and on Saturdays from 5 a.m. until 9 p.m. Their telephone is 410-850-4846.
A smooth flight and cooler weather in Florida. Nos vemos luego… Talk to you later…

“Palm Trees, Ocean Breeze
Salty Air – Sun Kissed Hair
that Endless Summer
take me There….
While preparing for the impending blizzard, I decided that having lunch at Surf Bagel would be the thing to do on a gray day like Friday. You could feel it in the air. Groceries stores were packed; customers buying the necesssary staples for a snowed in week-end.
I only found out about Surf Bagel this past December when one of my sons got a bagel sandwich for breakfast. It was delicious, so I put it on the back of my mind for a future post on this blog.
Back on October 25th, I wrote about Ocean Side Pizzeria in Fenwick Island, and the substance of the blog, besides that establishment, was that all coastal towns have beach eateries. They are dependable and we all love them. In that same post I mentioned a few of the other beach eateries that I have enjoyed in the past. For example in Ocean City, Maryland you will find Tommy’s Sub on 28th St. and Coastal Highway, also in Ocean City there is Anthony’s, and how can I forget the hamburgers and milk shakes at Hodad’s located on Newport Ave. in Ocean Beach, California. Growing up in Puerto Rico the place to go was El Gaucho Burger on Ashford Ave. Their Cubanos and Media Noches were tremendous.
So, to that group of beach eateries, I have to add Surf Bagel.
Surf Bagel is located at 17382 Coastal Highway, Lewes, DE. It is at Five Points, between Best’s Ace Hardware and the Rock Pile. The tel. is 302-644-1822. The website is www.surfbagel.com. Hours of operation are weekdays from 6:30 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., Saturdays from 6:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. and on Sundays from 7:00 a.m. until 1:30 p.m.
It is a colorful place greeting everyone with that big surfboard displaying their name. Surf Bagel? The Vitella brothers are natives. Dave combined his love for surfing and bagels and the rest is history. He then invited his brother, Tom, and this beach eatery has continued to thrive.
During the so many years of surfing, a constant has been bagels; fuel for the body. You know a bagel is a bread product, usually shaped by hand into the form of a ring. It is first boiled for a short time in water and then baked. It comes out dense, chewey, with a doughy interior and sometimes a browned and crispy exterior.
The basic roll, with a hole design is hundreds of years old and besides providing for a more even cooking and baking of the dough; the hole is used to thread string or dowels through groups of bagels, allowing for easier handling.
It was invented before 1683 in Poland, for Lent, and in the 16th and first half of the 17th centuries it became a staple of the Polish national diet.
Surf Bagel is bigger than you think. Plenty of seating to eat in but they do a big business with their carry-out service. They offer business deliveries to lcoal establishments in the Lewes area, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., but only during the week. You may fax your order to 302-644-8214. There is a $25 minimum. Another service they provide is catering and you may call ahead for a variety of party trays.
Surf Bagel is very involved in the community, sponsoring sports events; the wall pictures and trophies can attest to that.
Bagels are only part of what you can get in this beach eatery. There are breakfast sandwiches, subs, cheese steaks, pastries, wraps, salads, daily soups, all natural smoothies, coffees, and even a kid’s menu.
Today I chose one of their Tubular Wraps; the Flyin’ Hawaiian Wrap, which had grilled chicken, onions, pineapple and peppers, sauteed in Surf Bagel’s own Teriyaki BBQ sauce, topped with tomatoes and their 3 cheese blend.
While I was waiting for my wrap which really took no time at all, customers kept coming in. A gentleman was sitting by himself enjoying his lunch and I started talking to him. His name was Tom Vitella, one of the owners. He was so nice and gracious and he told me that they had been in the business for about 6 years. Where have I been? Too many places to discover in all these beach towns.
My wrap arrived and I will tell you that it was a messy one but it was worth it. Come on, some things like this wrap, or corn on the cob or ribs you have to get your hands dirty. Look at the picture. I hate to admit it, but I ate the whole thing. The sauce was not too thick and not too thin, perfectly seasoned.
 Flyin' Hawaiian Wrap Inside the restaurant I felt like it was Summer, but then I opened the door and reality set in.
It reminded me that I still needed to get some salt for the driveway….Talk to you later….

And you wonder, “Is there life before coffee? Are you kidding? There is no life before coffee, but, certainly there is life after coffee!!!”
There is nothing better than a good cup of coffee in the morning; and on a cold wintry afternoon, it warms your soul. That is what I am doing right now. Writing my post with a cup of coffee at my side. Believe me, I am no Barista, but I do prefer a full bodied cup of coffee.
There are coffee shops everywhere. It is a new culture. I used to just drive through and get my watery cup of coffee, here and there. But, it seems like in the past few years I have to park at a coffee shop and I better have my terms in check like “latte”, “macchiato”, “breve latte” “con panna” or “without panna”. You really want to know what you are doing because if you are a coffee drinker and you ask for a “chai latte” you are probably going to get tea.
What is a Barista? You see this word when you are ordering coffee at a coffee shop; the name of the person mixing the coffee, as well. If you are visiting a coffee shop in Italy you will probably encounter a uniformed bartender called a Barista. In Italy, a Barista is a trained mixologist, familiar with both alcohol and coffee based drinks. A mixologist specializes in creating new drink combinations and is knowledgeable about the composition of alcoholic drinks. It is usually treated as a respected specialist, just like a wine stewart or a somelier. A somelier is a wine expert; specialized in the restaurant side of the wine industry. A Barista is expected to have a working knowldege of all the different blends of gourmet coffees offered.
The premier professional coffee school in the world today is the American Barista & Coffee School (ABC’s). It started in 2004 and no other school has been able to match it, with 700 students from 47 states and 40 countries who have already graduated. This past August, ABC’s expanded to the international arena with an affiliate school in Beijing, China.
International and national competitions put the Barista to the ultimate test.
So, now I can tell you where I went yesterday.
A friend told me that she had heard that the new Barista Cafe in Lewes was pretty good. I have been meaning to stop by and in the late afternoon, I did.
Barista Cafe is located at the Mariners Plaza, 17644 Coastal Highway, Lewes, DE 19958. Tel. 302-703-2340. Website is www.LewesBaristaCafe.com. You can also find them on Facebook.
I met the owner, Laurie Bucka. She is not new to the food business and she opened Barista Cafe 6 months ago.
Barista Cafe is bigger than you think. I also thought I was going to encounter just a coffee shop, but what I found was a very welcoming coffee shop/restaurant offering, coffee, mochas, lattes, cappucinos, breakfast paninis and sandwiches, omelets, salads, wraps, paninis, specialty sandwiches, soups and some baked goods.
Laurie told me that at this time of the year they are open from 7:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. As the season wakes up then they will have extended hours.
Something to have in mind is that Barista Cafe has free delivery and you can also place your order on line at the above mentioned website and pick it up or have it delivered.
Laurie also told me that almost everything is made in-house. One of her favorite salads is the Cranberry Walnut, which is a fresh spring mix topped with grilled chicken, craisins, glazed walnuts and goat cheese served with balsamic vinaigrette. There is also a Southwest Chicken Panini, which has grilled chicken, monterey jack, pico de gallo, fresh avocado and chipotle mayo. A breakfast panini that caught my eye was the Sussex County Scramble, which has eggs, white American, local scrapple and grape jelly.
I think this could be one of those places that locals and natives alike can come to use as a “meeting place”. It has comfortable seating and bar tables. There is also easy parking, which right now is not a big deal but at the height of the season is a welcoming sight.
I will probably see you there…soon. Talk to you later…

The Main Street Princess Anne Partnership is definitely promoting this historic town by offering tours of its historic buildings and gardens. The town has a concentration of period buildings and more than a few are on the National Register of Historic Places.
For more information and schedule, please call Carolyn Marquis, Executive Director of the Main Street Princess Anne Partnership at 410-651-2961 or you may e-mail mainstreetpricessanne@yahoo.com.
The Olney Market Cafe is proud to provide gourmet box lunches, which is included in one of the standard tour packages. This Cafe specializes in homemade sandwiches, salads, cookies, teas, cheeses and chocolate truffles.
It is located inside Independence Hall, along with the other shops I wrote about this week. The address is 11779 Somerset Ave., Suite 11, Princess Anne, MD 21853. Tel. is 410-621-5643, Fax is 410-621-5674 and e-mail is susan@olneymarket.com.
The menu changes weekly and Susan, the owner, told me that she tries to also prepare a diverse menu. On the blackboard you will find the daily offerings and coffees.
The day I visited she had available Garlic Roast Beef Sub, Hearty Roast Beef with Garlic cheese on a Wheat Roll, Turkey & Black Bean Wrap, Turkey breast, cilantro, black beans, green chiles and tomatoes in tortilla, Barbecue Chicken Panini, Panzanella Panini and Foccacia stuffed with mozzarella, basil, tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette. The Cafe is small, with a few tables. The pantry has edible Christmas gifts, among the nuts, toffee and other goodies.
A Panzanella is an Italian salad made with onions, tomatoes, basil, olive oil, vinegar, seasonings and chunks of bread. Variations can include cucumber, anchovies and/or peppers. The traditional recipe soaks the bread in water and then squeezes the water out. Other suggestions are to brown the bread in olive oil before adding to the salad.
A Panini is Italian for roll or biscuit.
If you are visiting the area, you may call ahead and see what is on the menu for the day. You might want to stop while driving south on 13, trying to escape the cold weather that is upon us.
Information on Panzanella and Panini was taken from http://allrecipes.com.
I am going back to the beaches…so talk to you later…
November 27th, 2009
Once again word of mouth proves to be a very powerful advertising tool.
I got an e-mail from Ellen, who had found my website and wanted me to know that she had found this new restaurant that had just opened in Delray Beach. She liked it a lot and thought I should try it.
The next day I went for lunch to Jimmy’s Bistro. The address is 9 South Swinton, Delray Beach, FL 33483. It is very easy to find; all you have to do is go south after reaching the corner of Atlantic Ave. and Swinton. It will be 1/2 block on the left. The tel. is 561-865-5774 and his e-mail address is Jimmyspoorboybistro@gmail.com. They deliver ($15 minimum order) and are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner Mondays through Saturdays. Breakfast only on Sundays. A kid’s menu is available upon request.
This eatery will likely become a frequently visited neighborhood type restaurant. Jimmy’s friendly disposition will win you over.
Jimmy’s is small, with about 6 tables or so and a bar that probably seats about 8 people. Lots of colorful art adorn the walls and I could tell some were from West Virginia.
Immediately we started a conversation and he told me that he was from West Virginia and then lived in New York for many years. Now we are the lucky ones to have him in Delray.
Jimmy did not know that I wanted to review the restaurant and I explained to him that Ellen had suggested I try it. I forget now exactly how he put it but it was something like “you should spread the word out”. Little did he know that I was probably going to do so.
There is a set menu for lunch, but for dinner you will find his evening’s offerings written on a chalkboard. It changes every day.
Both of my children started with the Israeli Salad. It was the size of a dinner salad and they really liked it. It had mixed greens, tomato, cucumber, olives and feta cheese in balsamic vinaigrette.
I had the Fried Shrimp Po-Boy, which was Jimmy’s suggestion and was also what Ellen had tried. This sandwich had lightly breaded jumbo shrimp with lettuce, tomato and home-made lemon aioli. The seasonings were so good inside that warm and slightly grilled French bread. I could not have asked for anything better on a rainy day in Delray.
My children tried the Grilled Chicken Po-Boy, which had grilled breast of chicken with grilled red onion and a home-made chipotle mayo and the Grilled Steak Po-Boy, which had hanger steak with grilled red onion and the same chipotle mayo as the other. They both said that they had not had a sandwich that good in a long time.
So, the question is: Do you know what a Po-Boy is? Po’Boy, Po-Boy, Po Boy, or Poor Boy mean the same; a traditional submarine sandwich from Louisiana. It usually consists of meat or seafood, most of the time fried and served on a baguette-like (French bread, very crisp crust) Louisiana bread.
Other salads available: Grilled Chicken Cobb, Grilled Chicken Caesar, Tomato & Mozzarella, and Grilled Hanger Steak and Avocado.
Besides the Po-Boys we had, a Fried Fish Po-Boy is available which has lightly breaded filet of flounder with lettuce, tomato and home-made lemon aioli.
If you do not wish to have the French bread then all sandwiches can be made as wraps, but you will be missing something there. Sandwiches are served with black bean salad; tasty. Jimmy thought that the beans were a little hard that day but I thought that for a salad you don’t want them mushy. Now, if they are to be served on top of rice then I would have certainly cooked them a little bit more. They really were good.
For that evening’s dinner, he already had the chalkboard full of items.
For starters: Liver Pate, Clams and Bacon (little necks with beer), Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese, fried with mixed greens, Tomato Bisque with a parmesan pastry. The soup of the day was wild mushroom.
For dinner: Braised short Ribs, Honey and Lavender Grilled Pork Rib Eye, Fried Breast of Chicken with mashed potatoes and country gravy, Rigatoni with Braised Beef, Penne with Summer Squash, Honey & Soy Glazed Local Swordfish and Shrimp Etouffe.
Jimmy’s Bistro now has a liquor license. They offer wine and beer. I told him he should get some of that very popular Dog Fish Head that comes from Delaware.
Available drinks: Soft drinks, bottled water, Pellegrino and Inkos Iced Tea, which is a 100% white tea and comes from New York. I had it and it was refreshing; very good.
Jimmy’s Bistro is very affordable, so please keep that in mind, as well.
Word of mouth; this is what this post is… I have tried it, liked it, and will be back again. Now it’s your turn…..
