Over holiday break, my best friend from high school came home to visit family and friends. The first night he was back, we were looking for something to do. We were both hungry, so we wanted eat — the problem was we did not know where.
Out of nowhere my friend exclaimed he knew exactly where we should go: Nifty Fifty’s in Philadelphia.
For those who do not know Nifty Fifty’s, it is a staple in the community for great food and an interesting venue. Now Nifty’s is not by any stretch of the imagination fine dining, but it is a wonderful family spot, and the atmosphere is always cheerful.
One of my favorite parts of the trip was seeing all of the old-school neon they have hanging in the restaurant.
We had some good nuggets and some phenomenal milkshakes; it was a great time and it was spent with great people.

Nov 9, 2026Versatile and Vibrant, Modern Asti Spumante Is Not the Simple Party Fizz of the Past
I recall attending a New Year’s Eve party in my early 20s during which our host walked around at midnight filling guests’ flutes with celebratory toasts of “Champagne” or Asti Spumante. Now, the former wasn’t actually Champagne, just a cheaply made domestic Brut more suited to the budgets of people just entering the workforce. But those of us who liked our bubbly on the drier side preferred it to what we viewed as a sweet, simple Italian quaffer.

Nov 5, 2026Review: Casa Gangotena
ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: Facing one side of San Francisco Plaza in Quito’s Old Town, you’d be forgiven if you, at first, mistook the hotel for a palatial residence or estate, where the fourth or perhaps fifth generation of a family resides. Casa Gangotena, a Relais & Châteaux property, was, in fact, a home for many, built in the 17th century and later home to several presidents. The entrance reminds you you’re on very special grounds, from crown molding ceilings to opulent chandeliers to velvet couches, and staff guided me to check-in, beginning my very own regal stay.
