Can You Eat

So, it’s the New Year and we all made it…  No earth exploding, bombs going off or massive tidal waves (again).  But it’s not all bad. :)  We have another year to make new friends, go out and eat and great places and try to find new and exciting hobbies to perform.  And we always have next New Years — who knows, maybe my friends and parents will come out to my new apartment (not yet located) and dance the night away again.  But now it’s time to reflect.  I promise, only a little bit of reflection.

Last year I started two new blogs (Srcasm and this one) and had a great time making many new friends in the Philadelphia area and finding new places to eat.  Some of the restaurant favs of the year were National Mechanics, Zot, Eulogy and Triumph to name a few.  I’m hoping to get some pictures, write some reviews and have some good times at all of these places and more in the coming year.  I’m going to try to find places to eat that I never would have tried before — the hole-in-the-wall places in Chinatown, the tiny cafes and diners all over Philly and some of the more upscale places in the city like Panorama.   There are the restaurants and fooderies that I believe people will find most helpful.

As for dining out, I would like to setup a monthly visit to a new place in Philly.  All of my new and old friends should join me on my expedition to find some of the strangest and coolest spots in Philadelphia.  So if you have any ideas for places to start off seeing and eating, please let me know.  Leave a comment, send a tweet or shoot me an email at yes (at) canyoueat (dot) com.  As always, keep enjoying great eats and great prices in Philly!

Well this is my first time posting on this blog.  I’m a man on a mission.  I’ll try to review foods and restaurants that you want to taste — the restaurants that you and your friends eat at on a day-to-day basis.  Maybe you’ll find information that you already know here, maybe you’ll find a new dish or a new restaurant that you had no idea existed.  I hope to start some discussions about the places that I go and things that I eat and I’d love to have company anytime I set off to try something new.

Lastly, no restaurant is out of the question but I’ll try to make sure that they’re the restaurants that we can all eat at.  There are plenty of excellent reviewers out there that can tell you all about the Four Seasons, Mosholu and the Capital Grill.  I’ll show you places like National Mechanics, Macaroni Grill, Gigi Restaurant and more.  So check back for some upcoming reviews and information on the places that you love.
