I opened up the Bucks County Courier Times/The Intelligencer yesterday to the Food Section (of course). I’ve become a follower of Betty Cichy. She does great, creative articles on local food people, restaurants and stores. I wish I could link to more of her stories but the newspaper doesn’t post Lifestyle/Food pieces online. Hmmn. I [...]

Slow Food Dinner at Linden Hill Gardens
Posted in Events, Farms, People, tagged organic, Slow Food on July 3, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Driving to Linden Hill Gardens for the Bucks County Slow Food Farm to Table Dinner the evening of June 26th, Lynne and I got caught in one of this summer’s downpours. As the black sky flashed blue bolts of lightning and gray rain blew sharply across the road, we imagined ourselves huddling beneath a tent [...]

The Taco Burger
Posted in People, Restaurants on June 28, 2009 | 1 Comment »
One of the things I love about Basically Burgers is the sheer creativity behind their food. (There’s taste, too, but I’m going for something a little deeper here.) To hear Wes Goddard tell it, many of the stalwarts on the menu stem from his son Jay’s insomnia, when it’s one in the morning and he [...]
Heaven on a Soup Plate

I first met Karen McGinn over a bowl of soup. Well, several bowls of soup, to be precise. I attended a cooking demonstration last March hosted by Network Now. You could say that Karen was the main act. She cooked, we watched, we ate and we drank. It worked on so many levels, as the [...]
Tidbits: Tea Time For Students
Posted in Other Things About Food, People, Restaurants, tagged New Britain, New Jersey School for the Deaf, tea on June 8, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
If you think following good tea time manners is difficult (“pinky up!”), try doing it when you need your hands to “chat.” That’s what a group of high school students from the New Jersey School for the Deaf learned when they visited the Talking Teacup in New Britain recently. You’ll find the interesting article in [...]

Bucks County Taste has moved! You can read this post on our new site. When you walk into the Pineville Tavern , a couple of things hit you right off the bat. It’s warm. Everyone – staff and customers – seem to be in a good mood. There’s a buzz of people enjoying themselves. And [...]

Last month we talked with Sharon Schwartz about her evolution into a fine home chef. This month, we offer part two. Sharon talks about why she decided to “go organic,” and her favorite sources for ingredients in Bucks County. In her own words… I started to get interested in healthy food choices when I was pregnant [...]
Beyond Foodie
Posted in Cookbooks, People, tagged Doylestown, Sharon Schwartz on February 22, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I remember a piece Elaine Tait, the former food critic for the Philadelphia Inquirer, wrote 15 or more years ago. She predicted that in the year 2000, people who cook for themselves would become minor celebrities. Amidst all the convenience foods popping up in supermarkets in the 1990s, Tait saw the demise of home cooking. [...]
