What a lovely weekend coming up in beautiful Bucks County! While my heart goes out to all those folks at the shore who may get a piece of Hurricane Earl (especially to those in North Carolina and Virginia – batten down the hatches), it looks like we are going to have a sweet weekend here. [...]

We spent a long weekend in Kentucky, tasting good bourbon and visiting distilleries. What fun! But we are very glad to be in our ‘Old Bucks Home’ (sorry, Stephen Foster). I had forgotten just how much fried, salty food there is in the South. I know they must have fresh vegetables and fruit – it [...]

Sorry for the mid-summer lull on Bucks County Taste. We just got back from a long weekend in Kentucky, visiting bourbon distilleries. Had a wonderful time, met some nice folks and drank some very good bourbon. We’ll share it all, as soon as I can get my head back together!

Wow. Can’t believe how much is going on this weekend. Sorry if I’ve been a little sparse on the posts this week. Still hobbling around the house with my torn ACL. It’s a drag. Literally. Some highlights for this weekend? On Saturday, how about the 28th Annual R&B Picnic by the Bucks County Blues Society, being [...]

No, this isn’t a recipe for one of those interesting (i.e., wierd) “molecular” dishes. It describes what consumed me for most of Monday afternoon and all of Monday evening. I decided to take the day off. Kind of hard to do when you work from home and the internet is always there. It’s difficult to establish boundaries, [...]

What’s that you say? More beautiful weather in Bucks County this weekend? And lots to eat, of course. Strawberries, yes, strawberries. While most local strawberries won’t be coming in until later in May, you could say this weekend is the official welcome of the lovely spring fruit. Peddler’s Village will celebrate on Saturday and Sunday [...]

One of the challenges of doing this blog is that we sometimes have to overcome our biases. I’ve lived in Central Bucks for nearly twenty years now, Mark only six years, but he lived across the river for twenty years too. New Hope has become in our minds that place where tourists go, with a [...]

The weather forecast is a little mixed this weekend but so what? Do your outdoor eating on Saturday and your indoor eating on Sunday! A lot going on – I know I say that every weekend – but really. I mean it. A-Day in Doylestown (“Get yer milkshakes!”), Shad Fest in Lambertville (“Get yer bony [...]

I was running around doing my errands last Saturday. At the spur of the moment, I decided to drop in at The Copper Leaf Grill in Buckingham Greene. I wanted to introduce myself to the new chef and owner, Dominic Vigilante (the spot was previously Just Eat by BrownGold). But I got a double treat. [...]

So much going on this weekend, food-wise (is there anything else??). And the weather looks bee-u-tee-ful! Bucks County Taste – in the person of Lynne Goldman – will be at the Bucks Beautiful Garden & Home Show at Del Val College on Sunday. Be sure to stop by the Bucks County Foodshed Alliance table anytime [...]

I have to admit something. Just a couple of weeks ago I was worried that food events were going to slow down towards the holidays. I know that seems counter-intuitive – I mean, sometimes that seems the main activity this time of year – but not a lot was showing up for the calendar. But, [...]

Ah…the wine. Forget arguments over whether to put the mini-marshmallows on the sweet potatoes, lately the real struggle is about which wine to serve at Thanksgiving. Bring something big, red and cheap? Or a “good” bottle that you really want to sit back and enjoy because – hey, it’s a holiday and you’ve got time [...]

Mark and I have become cheerleaders for Bucks County wine. And, yes, we DO know what good wine tastes like. In fact, we are a bit picky about what we drink. I know my New World wines quite well, and have been getting to know the Italians much better. But we’d like all of our [...]
