Top Food, Shopping and Experiences in the Lehigh Valley This Week
1. Albatross Burger
Thanks to @kendalsbites, we were alerted on this gargantuan (this is a word, right?) burger that’s on the secret menu at 19th Grille at Woodstone Country Club. For starters, who even knew there was a secret menu?! Delighted by that fact alone, we’re excited to share this Albatross burger which features chicken, avocado, bacon, mozzarella sticks (yup!) and a fried egg. Thank goodness it arrives with a steak knife stuck right in the middle, so you’re able to divide and conquer the beast that is this sandwich.
2. Cocktail Flight
Guests have been flocking to Joey B’s Bar in Palmerton for what they’ve now become famous for: the cocktail flight. We’re all accustomed to a beer, wine and even mimosa flight, but a cocktail flight takes things up a notch. Joey B’s doesn’t just do your basics like a rum and coke or vodka and club, they’re mixing in candy, whipped cream, cherries, chocolate syrup and whatever else they dream up. Not to mention they’ve gotten pretty clever with naming said cocktails, recent ones have included the COVID Vaccine Round 2 and Orange U Glad 2020 is Over.
3. Hot Bunz
The Udder Bar (Best Ice Cream 2020) is consistently creating outrageous ice cream creations and we’re excited to see yet another with these Hot Bunz. This particular treat features a fresh brioche bun stuffed with ice cream and finished with toppings of your choice. If a brioche bun isn’t your top choice, may we recommend their bubble waffles stuffed with hard or soft cream and topped with whatever your heart desires.
4. Chicken Parm Nachos
Jay’s Local coming in with this weekend special: chicken parm nachos! Not your typical nacho in any sense of the word, Jay’s Local has created garlic butter bread chips (YUM), topped them with seasoned chicken, tomato sauce and parmesan cheese for your handheld chicken parm experience. Reminder, this is only a weekend special, so we suggest to go get ’em!
5. Custom Seed Packets
We figured we couldn’t cover ONLY food this week, so we decided to highlight some shopping with these adorable seed packets from Steel City Plant Co. In case you missed it, they’re opening this weekend in partnership with Domaci Flea upstairs at the WoolWorth Building on Main Street in Bethlehem and the first 500 people who make a purchase will get these packets along with a little gift from Domaci Flea. Sounds like a great reason to go shopping!
