A Maritime Menu Spells Danger For Us: These are the shellfish free options we found in Hampton, Virginia. Homemade tater tots - where have you been all my life! Hampton, Virginia is known as "Crabtown" thanks to James McMenamin developing a revolutionary method for sealing steamed crabmeat in airtight containers during the 1870s. Exporting shellfish became the backbone of Hampton's economy, while consuming shellfish became the foundation for the city's finest restaurants - a tradition that lasts to this day.

So in a town so famous for shellfish it revolutionized the crab industry, what are the best options for the shellfish-adverse? Food & Friendship in the City of Brotherly Love The architecture of Philadelphia is especially lovely at dusk. I'm not sure exactly what I expected for my first visit to Philadelphia, but I certainly hadn't anticipated the City of Brotherly Love to be so darn opinionated about food, shops, and even art.

Describing the state capital, he said it had "feeble lights, reflected dismally from the wet ground, did not shine out upon a very cheerful city". It's a shame he didn't take more time to make better acquaintance with Harrisburg's charms, as I suspect he would have found some kindred literary spirits.
Today, Harrisburg is the perfect destination for literature lovers - no matter what Dickens might have muttered! Here are my top picks for a beautiful, book-filled adventure! |
