Terminally Delicious

A friend whom I visited a few years back in Philadelphia took me to Reading Terminal Market - what a place!  I only wish I'd taken many more and better-quality pictures.


MEIN GOTT!!  LOOK AT THE CHEESE COUNTER!  LOOK AT IT!!

More history here.

And - should you find yourself in New Hope, PA sometime, check out Gerenser's Exotic Ice Cream.  I recommend the African violet highly.

  3. My market home away from home ;-) Downtown Cheese is still there of course, and later this year we're getting another cheesemonger, Valley Shepherd Creamery, that will make and age their cheeses onsite. Sadly, the number of butchers has declined but the seafood dealers and various PA Dutch are alll busy.

    Now I'm going to have to do a post on it.
