Cold Sake Will Travel: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- May 2003: Day 2
http://coldsakewilltravel.blogspot.com/2010/04/philadelphia-pennsylvania-may-2003-day.html
Cold Sake Will Travel. Friday, April 16, 2010. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - May 2003: Day 2. Early the next morning, we made our way from 17th to 3rd Street. We were going to take the subway, but it was deserted, cavernous, and creepy. We bumped into a woman, crying, who said, "You don't belong down here." It was very ominous, so we high-tailed it out of there and walked. The whole way. We grabbed a bagel on the way and realized we were still a bit too early for the Visitor Center. A small little alley w...

Cold Sake Will Travel. Sunday, April 25, 2010. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - May 2003: Day 5. After we had unpacked a bit and freshened up, we strolled down the street to the Soba Lounge. Another plus for the neighborhood was the plethora of great restaurants within walking distance as we were presently without a car. This was an Asian-fusion restaurant. I had an unbelievable cold sake sampler (where I discovered the joy of nigori. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow us to find out! New York, New Y...

Cold Sake Will Travel: Tacky Souvenir Challenge
http://coldsakewilltravel.blogspot.com/2010/04/tacky-souvenir-challenge.html
Cold Sake Will Travel. Saturday, April 3, 2010. This was created in 2002 in New York City. We now stick by it everywhere we go. Basically, for every city or major destination, I make it a point to find a cheesy tchotke indicative of the location. I have a few basic rules:. 1 Item must be around $5-$10. 2 Item should have the location printed right on it (otherwise, I'll never remember where the hell that lighthouse shot glass came from). The year is a bonus. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Kiki's Hom...

Cold Sake Will Travel. Monday, April 5, 2010. New York, New York - June 2002: Day 2. The next morning, we decided to start our day with bagels. Since we were trying to catch the bus downtown to the Circle Line. The boat seemed to take forever to get moving and the top deck was painfully hot yet windy. Finally, we arrived at Liberty Island. In this case, we got a small Statue of Liberty magnet. The next stop on our little cruise was Ellis Island. There was much more to explore here as we could walk the sa...

Cold Sake Will Travel: March 2010
http://coldsakewilltravel.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Cold Sake Will Travel. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Newport, Rhode Island - June 2001: Day 1. We arrived at year two with new jobs for each of us, but still a reluctance to venture out too far outside the safety bubble of New England. We decided to celebrate our anniversary weekend this time a little further away, in Newport Rhode Island. We wanted the champagne luxury of The Breakers on our Coca-cola budget, so we booked The Adele Turner Inn (somehow twice the cost of our inn in Maine! One of the bonuses ...

Cold Sake Will Travel. Wednesday, April 7, 2010. New York, New York - June 2002: Day 3. Because of the marathon pace of the day before and probably too many cocktails at night, we overslept and never made it to the Today. Show Instead, we went to Lindy's. And had a horrible, overpriced breakfast where the waiters bark gruffly at you. At least we were sitting outside. We proceeded as planned to the New York Public Library. And it was ten times cooler, so I can't recommend that museum enough. After dinner,...

Cold Sake Will Travel: Phildelphia, Pennsylvania -- May 2003: Day 1

Cold Sake Will Travel. Friday, April 16, 2010. Phildelphia, Pennsylvania - May 2003: Day 1. Pennsylvania was an easy choice - my in-laws had lived there for four years and we had never visited! Our goal was to travel from one end of Pennsylvania to the other - Philadelphia to Pittsburgh. We would stay a couple days in each city, stopping along the way to visit the in-laws and take in. We were really excited about dinner at Morimoto. Where Chef Morimoto used to work, and we were also HUGE Iron Chef. Fans ...

Cold Sake Will Travel. Sunday, April 25, 2010. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - May 2003: Day 3 and 4. After a simple breakfast in the Latham Hotel's bar. Which seemed kind of sad, like the morning after a wild party, still reeking of Key Lime martini's), we caught the PhLASH bus. To the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The next morning, we drove a borrowed car out to Pennsylvania Dutch Country. It wasn't a very long trip from Bucks County (where we were staying with the in-laws) to Lancaster County. For a short ...

Cold Sake Will Travel. Saturday, April 10, 2010. New York, New York - December 2002: Day 1 and 2. It turns out we could not stay away from New York for very long. After scoring a deal for a ridiculous $150 per night stay at the posh Soho Grand Hotel. We decided to also catch Baz Lurhmann's production of La. I don't quite know what I was thinking, but we didn't have reservations to any restaurant and after making some calls, we settled on Limoncello (now closed but replaced by the well-received Insieme.

Cold Sake Will Travel. Sunday, May 9, 2010. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - May 2003: Day 7 and 8. After breakfast, Enterprise Rent-A-Car. Came to pick us up. The driver was very friendly, but we noticed he kept saying "Picksburgh" (and we thought we had funny accents! Soon, we were off in our budget rental to Laurel Highlands to see Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater. In Amish Country, now this? Were the animals in Pennsylvania out to get us? Wright's other masterpiece in the area. Finally away from the mean ...
