Much of this change can be attributed to Director of Dining Mr. Michael Burr. Mr. Burr has been at Haverford for nearly a year. Before that, he spent approximately ten years at JPMorgan Chase in Wilmington, Delaware, where he oversaw food service operations for a campus of around 3,000 people.

The Underrated Pennsylvania Seafood Shack That Most Tourists Completely Miss

Somewhere in Pennsylvania, a restaurant has served the same baked clams since 1962, finished with a tangy red dot nobody fully explains. They arrive roasted whole in a one-of-a-kind steel tray.

Who is the Big Cheese hiding in Manayunk's rafters

I've been reporting for nearly two decades, counting my college newspaper days. That means I'm getting old, and I've been at this long enough that I no longer find stories; they find me. The big picture: In that spirit, let me tell you a story: I attended my friend, rapper Frost Gio 's open-mic show at The Grape in Manayunk over the weekend. While there, I gazed up at the bar rafters and saw a yellow plushie gazing back at me. At first, I thought it was a guitar pick playing the guitar. Very meta. Then I thought, no, wait, it's Split, the Savannah Bananas mascot. Zoom in: Stumped, my reporter instincts kicked in. So I asked the bartender. He told me the stuffie was the calling card of CheeseParade. I'd find them scattered throughout the bar. What they're saying: "Am I supposed to know who that is?" I asked as he popped open another nonalcoholic seltzer for me. He chuckled, quickly realized I was a newb to the bar and launched into the backstory.

Why Philly Families Still Line Up For Tomato Pie At This Century-Old Bakery
