Classic Diner Lunch (again)

In need of a cheeseburger, I stopped at The Classic Diner, Malvern, PA, USA, which is one of my favorite joints for such comfort food. Was also testing some functions on a new camera so made a short video. Check it out:

That bacon cheeseburger with double onions is the way to go. Flavor is excellent. Filling. Fortifying. If you count the onion rings on the side, that’s actually triple onions. In other words, just right. Of course, a sticky bun for the road enhances the experience. Enjoy every meal.

This is a local joint, mostly take-away, but there are a few seats at the counter where you can enjoy your snack and read Diario, the local newspaper.

The food here is local, simple, hearty fare. The prices are reasonable, meaning currently you’ll spend about 20 florins or less for a platter like you see below.

Of course, each day they have a few specials. I recommend going early for lunch to get your selection. Below is the grilled chicken platter.

There’s plenty of food there, enough rice for 3 people underneath the chicken. This might be an easy alternative for a quick meal during your stay. Bon dia.

Climb out from 27L

In the previous post, you saw the taxi portion of the flight, lining up on Runway 27L at Philadelphia International Airport. Well, here’s the next phase: Takeoff and climb out.

By the way, that was at 4X speed. But you get the idea. Was a hazy day, too, making for less than ideal video. Still, was a great takeoff over the Delaware River with fine sights below. Safe travels.
