Last month I traveled to Vermont – a trip, for once, with no work component. And ever since I was a teenager I’ve wanted to tour the Ben & Jerry’s factory. So we took a break from our brewery-filled schedule … Continue reading →

Vegetarian food can be Rated F, too.

Posted on November 21, 2012 by Pippi Longstomach

On Sunday, I had (a late) lunch at PB’s Tavern in Glassboro. Besides their extensive craft beer selection, they actually have a pretty good menu. I got this veggie sandwich with sweet potato fries and felt like a mega-blimp afterward.

Sad face (but yum)

Next week will be the last Collingswood farm market of the year! I’ll miss it. Today for lunch Tortilla Press had these unusual quesadillas: pumpkin, black beans and goat cheese. Unexpectedly sweet; reliably tasty.

Unusual toppings

If this is what food’s like in suburban California I’m moving there tomorrow.

Seriously?

Posted on October 24, 2012 by Pippi Longstomach

Long story short, a few weeks ago I had to go to On The Border for an interminable lunch that I couldn’t find a way out of. Being not hungry enough for the veggie option of a whole bunch of … Continue reading →
