Passing Through Philadelphia

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

We had to drive to New York, and on the way, we decided to pass by Philadelphia which was already on the way. James always likes to reminisce his college days

Visiting his school

And having Philly Cheesesteak. Jaime had a list of places to go and we had too with the help of Quentin and Vanessa, but by the time we wanted to eat lunch, they were closed already. So we ended up going to Abner’s which was near campus as we were already at the University of Pennsylvania

James used to go here since it was convenient and near where he stayed – one block away

GIGANTIC!! James always orders the same thing – onions, mushrooms and swiss and provolone cheese. We split this into three. Jaime expected more but James and I were happy with this

Unsatisfied Jaime was still hungry so we went to the two famous places in Philly

Previous entry: Pat’s or Geno’s August 13, 2010

Pat’s

We tried the one with Cheez whiz this time

Geno’s

The FOODIE is what I call my son! I have a Chef and I have a Foodie! 🙂 They are definitely my sons 🙂

And quickly headed to New York!

Georgetown Cupcakes

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

Since we were already in Washington DC, we decided to take a quick peek at Georgetown University. It was good for Jaime to see the place too just to get a feel of the school

At the same time, we stopped by Georgetown Cupcakes! It was my first time to hear about this place while the two boys were familiar with the place because of the reality show on TV

There was a line which never stopped from the time we entered till we got out

The cupcake sisters 🙂

WOW!

Menu that day

While waiting in line

Cupcakes being made at the back

Love the condiment counter

Love the pink KitchenAid

Heart cut outs!!!

We were just curious to try how the famous cupcakes taste like

Red Velvet and Chocolate Peanut Butter Twist

Jaime even bumped into a schoolmate from St. Paul’s who was also visiting the Campus – Mommy Carol and daughter Halisha

Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

Some friends drove over to Virginia- Don and Mariel

and took us to Ruth’s Chris Steak House. I remember this steakhouse long long ago when we went to San Francisco. They were already there even before all the other steakhouses – more than 40 years ago. When this was bought 40 years ago, there were only 2 branches, now they have 120 locations and 12 international locations.

We shared the appetize. Spicy Lobster! YUM!

Close up 🙂

Our main dishes

Lamb Chops with Blue Cheese Crust

Rib Eye

Touring Washington DC

By Heart2Heart | Travel | No Comments

I have always wanted to go to Washington DC to visit the White House 🙂 Finally I got my wish. We were really in Virginia but we drove to Washington for a quick tour. Since we did not have much time, we just drove around to get a feel of the city.

US Air Force Memorial

Pentagon

I love old historical structures. Random photos while driving.

I have never seen so many American Flags in one place! 🙂

White House – from a far street

Turned around and this is the closest we got

Freedom Plaza

Washington Monument which was being restored

Smithsonian

Canadian Embassy

Old Post Office
