Charlie’s Hamburgers – Folsom, PA
In the summer of 2010, we took a trip to “Amish Country”, flying into Philadelphia, driving across to Pittsburgh and flying home. We spent the first couple of days in Philly, then headed west.

Tavern on the Green – New York City, NY
If I recall correctly, this was actually the first day that it occurred to me to take a picture of food and where I was eating. For the years leading up to their sixteenth birthdays, I had told both of our girls that when each of them turned sixteen that I’d take them anywhere in […]
