Happy Thanksgiving

The Crier — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 16:20:06 +0000

In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November.

Nothing better than fresh Jersey Tomatoes! Raw, Cooked, Sauced, however you slice them they are delicious. Ran accross this video and thought I would share. I’ve already done some just like his and they were great.

Cone-E-Island Our Tropical Paradise

The Crier — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 01:20:11 +0000

Step into Cone E Island for a little trip to the tropics and plenty of great things to eat. Gourmet ice cream treats are their specialty but it doesn’t stop there. They have a fantastic menu of sandwiches, wraps and other goodies like Caribbean Chicken, Pulled Pork, Nice Onion Rings and even Southern Fried Pickles. Great Gourmet Burgers too. Prices are MORE than reasonable. So next time you’re hungry for lunch, dinner or just a snack give Cone-E-Island a try.

I personally recommend the Buffalo Chicken Wrap and the Big Kahuna Banana Split.

Check out their menus and more at their website.

Cone-E-Island is in the Murphy’s Shopping Center on the White Horse Pike and Atco Ave.

Anyone Else Like Wings?

The Crier — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 03:28:07 +0000

Americans eat a lot of chicken wings. I know I eat my share and then some. I’ve tried almost all of them all in our area and there are quite a few different styles and variations. It’s more than the sauce, its the wings themselves, and also how they are cooked. With all the factors involved I’m sure we all have our favorite. Let us know what your favorite is!

I know it’s hard to just pick one so in this poll you can choose your 2 favorite places. If there’s another place you like, leave a comment and we’ll add it to the list.

Atco’s Favorite Cheese Steak

The Crier — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:58:32 +0000

The Cheese Steak sandwich is something that we have all known about and probably eaten forever! But don’t go out to the mid west or down south and expect to find a good cheese steak and that’s if you can find one at all. It’s an East Coast Philly area delicacy and in some places they won’t even know what you are talking about. You will find some places in far off states that actually have tried to take advantage of the name sake and opened “Philly Cheese Steak” shops. I actually found one in Key West but the sandwich was not what we are use to here in the Delaware Vallyand the roll was like a big hot dog bun. The roll has a lot to do with it in my opinion. So tell us where to get the best cheese steak in our area and vote for your favorite below or leave a comment about another place you like and we’ll add it.
