Earl’s Bucks County has just started their own garden “out back” behind the Peddler’s Village restaurant, populated with organic herbs and vegetable plants from Peace Tree Farm in Kintersville. Pretty cool. The produce will, of course, be used in the restaurant all season long. Kitchen gardens are a practice that has become more common among restaurants [...]

Nice article in yesterday’s Intelligencer on Kerry and Roseann Burns, who own and run the Town Crier Bakery in Lahaska. Roseann and I have gotten to know each other through Facebook, of all places, where she insists on putting up delectable photos of the bakery’s creations that make me salivate. Another good place to go [...]
I feel a need to apologize for the lightness of my online presence these past few days. I’ve been pulling together our taxes. Ugh. Should be done today and I’ll send it off to the accountant. And I’m not posting this just to prove to the IRS that Bucks County Taste exists, and is worth some [...]

It seems such a simple thing. Here we are in the midst of beautiful, rich farmland, where local farmers are growing delicious vegetables and fruits, raising healthy, tasty livestock and producing cheese, honey and other delicacies. So why don’t we see more of this food on local restaurant tables? The answer is simple … yet [...]

As some of you may know from our tweets Monday night, Mark and I attended the preview party for the “new” Earl’s restaurant in Lahaska (Peddler’s Village). First, let’s get the whole price thing out of the way. Most people I know (“locals”) have avoided Earl’s for the last few years due to a rather [...]

By guest blogger Susan Sprague Yeske The chance to meet Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Lewis and Clark, and Betsy Ross doesn’t come along very often. Nor does the opportunity to dine on Colonial-style foods. But opportunity knocks each January in Bucks County, when the Cock ‘N Bull Restaurant in Peddlers Village reprises its Evenings in [...]

Catch this article in last week’s Bucks County Herald about the best wings in Bucks County. Talk about professional jealousy! I admit it!! Granted, wings are, how shall I put it…a specialty all in themselves. Just read their descriptions of what makes a great wing. These guys are pros. My jealousy is mixed with awe. I [...]
We’re a week ahead of all of you. Since my sister and brother were visiting last week, and the whole Goldman clan was in one time zone, we had Thanksgiving last Friday. It was a blast. But kind of weird. Needless to say, we’re all feeling a little smug this week as everyone else is [...]
It’s been awhile since I’ve done a “weekend run-down.” But I’m finally feeling more myself and getting over (fingers crossed) this pneumonia. Mark, however, has bronchitis. My family has started referring to our home as “Plague City.” Lovely. But there is so much fun stuff going on this weekend that I simply had to write [...]

Yeske Food that’s delivered this quickly shouldn’t be this good, but the cuisine is fast as well as flavorful at Lahaska’s smallest restaurant, La Madeleine French Country Café. Chef de cuisine Laurent Leseur and wife April enjoyed the grand opening of their petite café recently after a soft opening in [...]

Everyone has their favorite ice cream place. Usually it’s local, and maybe because it’s associated with sweetness and warm summer evenings, people tend to be fiercely loyal. That’s why we are not going to rate ice cream purveyors in Bucks County (ha!), or even attempt to be comprehensive in our list. But for those of [...]

Finally! A good weekend forecast. Or should I not jinx it? As usual, lots of good things happening this weekend. I think the Linden Hill Farmers’ Market, which just opened at the end of May, has had the most rainy days. So, please, go check them out, Fridays from 3:30 to 7:30 pm in Ottsville. Crossing [...]

By guest blogger Emily Trostle Reasonably priced food? Beer that is brewed on-site to complement the menu? I’m there. And the Porterhouse Restaurant and Brew Pub in Lahaska fits the bill. The beer vats are the first thing you see as you step into this cozy restaurant. Coming around the corner into the dining area, [...]
