3-Days from Thanksgiving and I'm chowing down on PRIMO's

Because who can RESIST?  Not I!  So much so that in the photo below I already took a bite.

My fav:  ABRUZZI: Thumanns Home Style Roasted Pork & Sharp Provolone Topped with Fresh Broccoli Rabe and that's what I'm eating as we speak - quite possibly one of the best sandwiches I've ever had - Primo's knows how to do hoagies and hoagies just beat out CheeseSteaks in a favorite sandwich competition in City Council - so eat one to celebrate!

After you've had your fill of Thanksgiving (by around Saturday, right?), head to Primo's for the perfect hoagie.  And, while you're here - let's share your special Thanksgiving traditional recipes.  Maybe Broccoli rabe is one of the?  Share with the rest of the class pretty please.

"More Gruel Sir"

Yes, I beg, borrow and steal for food.  I'm not bragging, but I just can't help myself.  The guys that work right down the hall from me are constantly getting food delivered and it always smells sooooo good.  This morning Panorama Ristorante (Front & Market Philly) cooked Gnoochi and I simply could not resist...two different kinds too.  One was a vegetable gnoochi - looked like spinach pasta and chock full of veggies, the other straight-up perfect cheese filled potato gnoochi which was absolutely delicious.  I know there's many places cause we are lucky enough to have some fantastic restaurants who do a great gnoochi, especially since we've got South Philadelphia, but let me recommend a stop into Panorama at some point...try it, you'll like it.

Welcome to Willow Grove Mad Mex

It's nice to have you in Montgomery County (a tad closer than University City for some of us).  Your quacamole is my favorite!  Mad Mex just had a successful grand opening this past Friday (11-11-11) and people are finding that the food is fresh and fab...also reasonably priced.  So if you haven't checked them out...here ya go.

Is Breakfast the Most Important Meal of the Day?

If so, head to Green Eggs on 2nd Street in Northern Libs (or their So. Philly) location and chow down on the best French Toast I've ever eaten (and that includes actually having french toast in France).  I think the photo tells the story of the delish.
