This fall, Allentown is killing it. From the incredible Oktoberfest celebration that will take over at least part of downtown, to the numerous bar crawls(?), to... other things, I almost feel like I'm living in NYC.
All kidding aside, this is an attempt to collect a debt.
A debt that we owe to ourselves to start eating and drinking better in Allentown. I feel like some sort of community or social group might be advantageous in this pursuit.
So...
I know there are Foodies in Allentown and I'm going to hunt you down, and I will find you, and I will make you help me, to help us all.
"Help with what?" you ask, hesitantly, aloud to nobody, whilst backing away from your computer screen, slowly, as not to drip any of that mediocre slice of pizza you're eating on your keyboard.
I am asking your help in starting a communal blog dedicated to the enhancement and refinery of the Allentown food scene. I discovered recently that I care deeply about the expansion and promotion of the lives and palettes of our fellow Allentownians. So I guess I'm ready to take off my jacket and stay a while.
But seriously, I don't know if I can live here another year with this fog of apathy hovering around all the time. We have to step it up. We should care what we are eating and drinking and not only for our physical health, but for our mental well-being.
I'm ready to absolve you of all your sins, if you are willing to take mine (with a chaser of course), and we can go into this winter and into the new year and make progress and be full of delicious things, hopefully with some new friends. What say you?
