Josefina's of Easton

If you're looking for some excellent South American food, check out Josefina's, located at 1104 Butler Street, Easton, Pa. Some friends and I went there for a great, satisfying $5 lunch. Haven't tried it for dinner yet, and can't pronounce half of what's on the menu (ok, I can't pronounce most of what's on the menu, but hey, I failed most of your major European languages in high school, so this should be no surprise to friends and family).

Eat. Drink. Stink.

The Easton Garlic Fest is coming Saturday, October 6. Check it out at www.eastongarlicfest.com. Unfortunately I won't be able to go this year, but I've heard nothing but good things about it so go, eat and enjoy the tasty wonders of garlic.

It's also First Weekend, so there's plenty to do even if you don't like garlic (though really, have you tried it?). According to the "First Weekend" brochure for October, on Saturday, the Farmer's Market will be in full swing, Porter's Pub is having a kilt night at 8 p.m. (wear a kill, get a free pint) and Nanny's Treasures will be having their grand opening (they're at 19 South Second Street).
