    --Uncovered butter and sugar for pretzels is being stored next to the soiled linen bag, creating a cross contamination hazard. Do not store food next to the soiled linen bag. Cover all food in storage.
  • Materials for Surfaces that are Nonfood-Contact Surfaces (46.522)

I'm from Philadelphia (now in the Lehigh Valley) and I LOVE Philadelphia soft pretzels. When I heard about the place on Hamilton St. I went to check it out. I wasn't disappointed.They're the real thing. 3 pretzels plus a drink for $3 is excellent. I walk down the block and find somewhere outside to sit, eat my pretzels, drink my drink and watch the world go by. Very relaxing. After 10 visits you get 10 free pretzels!! I'm just a couple away. They also sell various flavored mustard but there's general mustard available if you don't want the upgrade. There are other items on the menu related to pretzel quantity, etc.
