Happy Chinese New year!! I have spent the day celebrating and experiencing some culture. Today, at the Chinese New year parade, I watched as adorned dragons danced from store to store collecting lettuce and lighting firecrackers. I ate at the Amazing Penang restaurant afterwards (_ click down bar for the menu). Penang is Malaysian food and the atmosphere, staff, and food never cease to amaze. I got pad thai and my sister got coconut rice.
After lunch, my sister and I ventured to a favorite spot of ours, The Reading Terminal Market. I feel like I was back in Rome in there because of the old historic community feel. I love fresh, local produce and a "buffet" of stores and restaurants/cafes/bakeries/etc! To those who do not know, The Reading Terminal Market has been around since 1892. It is considered a National Landmark. Your grandparents will tell you stories about their times here! Today I had toffee crunch and cookie dough ice cream from Bassetts Ice cream_ (since 1861- before the RTM). I also bought a Metropolitan Bakery Cookie for later. Pictured Below are some of the wonderful food choices you can sample in the Reading Terminal Market. Besides food, there is a flower shop, clothing, soaps, books, and home ware! I would also like to give a shout out to Valley Shepherd Creamery #ValleySheherdCreamery for their amazing customer service and unique selection of local cheeses.
