Smegy's on Torresdale Ave. in NE Philly. Cannot bring myself to even go and and check it out.

Luther- thank you for the heads up on finding regularly-pasteurized organic milk. My eleven-year-old noticed the cooked taste of the brand I was buying. I figured that since all the labels in my market read "ultra-pasteurized" that was the culprit. I'll check out Trader Joe's. thx thx thx

A friend of mine at Vassar told me about a place in Poughkipsee called the "Yeung Ho Chinese Restaurant"

Phuket, let's Thai one on.

My favorite is the chinese restaurant in Cooperstown, NY.

Foo Kin, as in "I want some of that Foo Kin Chinese Food!"

There's a Chinese restaurant here in Portland, OR called Hung Far Low. I have no idea why.

There used to be a place called Takee Outee in the French Quarter. There was one right up the street from Pat O's. The eggrolls were huge, delicious and exactly what we needed after a few Hurricanes. Good times.

Mrs. Fly's Bakery (now defunct) was famous for shoo-fly pie.
