Seafood Jumbalya

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Flashbacks in Lester for their famous crabs, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. The restaurant had a cozy, hole in the wall feeling, with friendly staff who made us feel right at home.

The star of the show, of course, were the crabs. They were fresh, meaty, and perfectly seasoned, making for a truly satisfying meal. The Old Bay seasoning was just right, enhancing the flavor of the sweet crab meat without overpowering it. The crabs were served hot and steaming, adding to the overall enjoyment of the dining experience.

In addition to the crabs, we also tried some of their other seafood offerings, including their pasta dishes which were equally delicious. The portions were generous, and everything was cooked to perfection.

Overall, I highly recommend Flashbacks in Lester for anyone looking for a fantastic seafood dining experience. The quality of the crabs and seafood is stellar. I will definitely be returning to Flashbacks in the future for more of their amazing crabs. Flashbacks also offer all you can eat crabs on Thursdays.

“After discovering the restaurant in March, I had to return for my birthday in August. So my husband and I made the 3-hour drive to Philly just so I could eat at Monster Vegan twice in one day. The food was consistently delicious. I could eat the eggrolls and tacos every day. The service was wonderfully inviting. The vibe is great during the day but the evening totally elevates it. I’m also thankful for their mocktail menu is just as creative as the rest of their drink menu and not just a spirit-free mojito. It’s my favorite restaurant and will gladly make the trek to Philly again just to visit Monster Vegan.”

“I was so excited to dine at Her Place Supper Club. The food, ambiance and service were exactly what I expected. I can only give 4 stars on food, however, because the scallops had grit in them. I thought it was just my dish and didn’t want to complain, but on the way home, my friend told me her scallops had grit too. That’s a shame. Other than that, it was a fantastic dining experience.”

“Pasta making class Olivia was excellent. She understands the regions of Italy and was able to prep and explain with ease and grace. A participant asked about cacio e pepe, which was not on the agenda, and Olivia quickly prepared the basic but difficult to nail sauce. It was spot on. Would def recommend HBB to friends and family. One suggestion though - supplying guests with aprons would be helpful!”
