Éclat Chocolate, West Chester
Éclat Chocolate in West Chester has been featured in such high and mighty publications as Food & Wine, Vogue, and Philadelphia Magazine, so we here at MLD figured it was high time to add our name to that list.
Tango, Bryn Mawr

Verdad Restaurant & Tequila Bar, Bryn Mawr
818 Lancaster Avenue Bryn Mawr, PA 19010 (610) 520-9100 Preview: We attended the soft launch of Verdad on Thursday, August 6, 2009 — a practice run for the staff before the big grand opening the following night.

Hong Garden, Paoli
36 Chestnut Rd (Chestnut Village Shoppes) Paoli, PA 19301 (610) 296-9426 Overview: Standard Chinese eat-in / take-out… a step above places that have pictures of the food on the menu, but a step below Margaret Kuo and Yang Ming. Food: All the basics that you’d expect. Our only “beef” with Hong Garden is that they […]
