Brunch in Coatesville PA
You probably need to look at Exton or West Chester (maybe Downingtown). Do you prefer buffet or a la carte?
Good food near West Chester University
I like the lunch Italian buffet at Limoncello. I have enjoyed dinner there as well.
Vinny's at Chester Springs, bbq?
I've never been there, but Vinny's at Chester Springs by the intersection of 113 and 401 has a big smoker in the parking lot and is advertising ribs, etc. It smells good when you drive by.
Has anyone tried it?
It's more of a pizza place, but it seems like they recently started the bbq.
Sam's Club "Taste of Sams" this weekend -- an ethical question
cwdonald it is Sam's, not costco.
I did just hear a radio add for the sam's event, saying "all are welcome"

Yeah coming in is exactly what they want you to do, regardless of your intention.

It says the same thing on their website here.

Donuts at West Chester Food Festival
The fair is back. They also now have donut nuggets this year.
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
What is the perkasie thread?
What change should be made in Philadelphia description?

So far I've heard mixed reports from co-workers. They may still be working out some kinks.
ISO Burbs Dessert Spots!!
Expensive? Their prices seemed reasonable. http://jakesfrozencustard.com/menuTreats.html
Whirled peace 50 cents an ounce seem outrageous to me.
I never made it to either one though, but I'm not too surprised Jake's closed, though I expected them to finish the summer at least.

As an update - Jake's Frozen Custard has now apparently closed.
The best authentic pizza in the Philly area
Preferably take it to home cooking forum? ;)
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
As I mentioned above, threads will naturally cross those borders, so it doesn't make sense to have that kind of artificial separation. It was also one of the things being improved with the new board structure.
And it has been working pretty well for 18 months or this discussion may have happened sooner.
Perhaps some descriptions can be improved, but I don't think any major changes are needed in general.

How much more can be done? It ended up in the right place. The system works.

"This board is focused on discussing chow in New Jersey, other than towns in Southern New Jersey which are suburbs of Philadelphia and discussed here"
seems pretty clear to me.
George's Greek American Grill in Great Valley/Malvern closed - where have I been?
This confused me at first as King Street is also Malvern. But Julia was referring to Terra in Wilmington, which is where the George's folks moved to.

As you mentioned, no one here is confused where New Hope/Bucks County should be.
The issue in this part of the thread was whether additional clarification and/or limitation is required. In my mind, the fact that one person from NJ allegedly got confused doesn't warrant any drastic changes.
This topic was created with the split in 2010 and wasn't in question until the confused poster from NJ seemed to want something in a different board, for unclear reasons.
It is clear that Bucks and the other PA counties should be in Philly. I think it would cause more harm than good to try to keep Delaware/NJ out. For posts such as "recommend sushi 30 minutes outside of philly" (hypothetical example), NJ restaurants will and should fit into those threads.
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
Well it seems like about 3.5 people are on board with the "5 PA counties" proposal.
It seems pretty inconvenient to limit it in this way. Posts in more than one forum or in a questionable forum seem like a pretty small minority in my experience. I don't see a lot of confusion about what belongs on the Philadelphia area board. Most people know it when they see it. Those outliers can be moved per the existing process.
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
A couple people don't really represent the board. The status quo is preferable than trying to limit it further. Really issues have been very rare.
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
I agree, that those counties should not be in question. Large chunks of Camden/Burlington/Gloucester seem pretty clear as well.

I wouldn't say that NE Philly is quite the same, but I think you have similar points regardless.
Honestly I think there have been very few issues since the switchover, which is good. It may simply create more problems, trying to define it more strictly. As we have seen below, just simply aligning counties is not so simple.
There may always be corner cases, but perhaps just a thread to get a consensus on where it should be is enough, and then updating the description to document that decision?
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
This is strange CindyJ as the thread had seemed to be moved back to Philadelphia for some time now.
Borders of the Philadelphia board?
There was a thread after the reorganization where people could volunteer to help move threads to the new boards (but not the other way around).
