I’m heading there in a few months. I’m so excited. I’m bringing stretchy pants.
@@MS-ep2cq Probably a good idea! :-)
😂😂😂
Chitterlings taste nothing like scrapple!
It's a culinary adventure in every bite!
They're both disgusting so🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lived in philly almost my whole life and never been i kniw I'm missing out
We kept going back almost every day for a week. It was truly worth it!
Reading Terminal Market is a great place for food. But i have to say this to you, about your comments about those Amish shops, they aren't Amish. They are Mennonites, whom are similar to the Amish. The Mennonites use electricity and drive Automobiles, the Amish Don't!! And In no way, does Scrapple and Chitlins, taste the same, you couldn't be more wrong. And John's Roast Pork is the G.O.A.T for Roast Pork n Cheese Steaks. But you are correct, about the Reading Terminal being Awesome for all the great tasting food n sweet treats.
We actually know the difference between Amish and Mennonites. I stayed at a Mennonite-run B&B in Bird-in-Hand about 20 years ago. And, in fact, if the folks here are Mennonite, they are branding themselves as "Amish," so we take them at their word. I agree with you that John's has the best Roast Pork sandwiches, but I prefer Jim's steaks for cheesesteaks. But that's a personal preference.
As for scrapple vs. Chitlin's. you can have them both. Who knew the food scene could be so complex? ;-)

Growing up I lived in the heart of Amish country in Lancaster Pa. The real Amish do not travel in any type of motorized vehicles, and the only electricity they use, is for Milk Storage on their Dairy Farms, this is mandated by the USDA. Did the Amish bed and breakfast that you stayed in have electricity? If it did, they weren't true Amish. The farm that I grew up on, we had Amish and Mennonites as neighbors. I know and am aware of the difference in the two communities, and yes there are many who claim to be Amish, but unfortunately they aren't True Amish. I was in no way downing You or Your Video. Oh by the way, maybe you should check out both, Booths Corner and Downingtown Farmers Markets they are very great places to visit, and are true Blue Collar/ Country Folk Destination's.
As far as Scrapple and Chitlins go, Chitlins are a southern staple, and they smell and taste like arse. Scrapple is good with Ketchup, Hot Sauce, Maple Syrup or Jam.
Scrapple is definitely my preference. And for Cheese Steaks, in Philly I prefer John's, but Delco Pa. ( Delaware County) Has many great Mom and Pop Shop's for Cheesesteaks, Italian and Regular Hoagie's including Roast Pork. One of favorites is Leo's Cheesesteaks in Sharon Hill Delco Pa.
Cheers, I do wish continual happy and safe journeys for Y'all ......
@@Oklahoma-Cayo-Hueso-Cowboy I did not stay in an Amish B&B. It was a Mennonite B&B. And, yes, it did have electricity. I realize that the Amish travel only with horse-drawn carts or walking. On cheesesteaks, have you ever tried the ones at Angelo's? We did this last trip, and we were really impressed. In fact, we did a video on it.
Reading Terminal Market is now on my must visit list when in Philly next time. Thanks for sharing all these great spots. Nice work Steve and Young!! Couple weeks ago, we ate at Du-pars (since 1938) at Farmer's Market in L.A., not as impressive RTM but still interesting to visit and Du-pars has great pancakes.
One of our early videos was at the LA Farmer's Market. I think they've gotten better since then -- we have to redo it.
I really like that you showed the name of the stores that you recommend. Like you vdo and the music background too. So, I already subscribed ! Thanks for sharing these yummy spots!🤤👍👍💕 oh, next time, can you please tell us the price too? That would be helpful. Thanks again. 👋
Thank you. We try to give useful information for anyone who wants to try these places.
I agree with the Amish Ribs, they are delicious! That’s exactly where I go every time I’m in the Reading Terminal.
I guess we can officially call ourselves rib connoisseurs now! Next time, we should start a Rib Lovers Club at Reading Terminal Market!
I love scrapple especially with syrup on it
I have a theory that, if you grew up with it, you love it. If you tasted it for the first time as an adult, it's hit and miss. Same thing with Spam.
Dinics and termini bros. My fav
That brisket at Dinics was, "Wow!"
@@steveandyoung the roast pork was my fav w sharp provolone
@@Cruisingfoodies I liked the roast pork at John's Roast Pork better. But Dinic's brisket was amazing! I would go back to Philly just for that.
@@steveandyoung lol sometimes my cousins there ship me sandwiches. It's great lol
@eatbeachcruise Ooooh, how lucky to have cousins there. Mine are in Florida and Sonoma, but I can make a good Key Lime Pie and I already have plenty of wine. 😀
Hershel's east side deli has the best pastrami and corned beef/reuben sandwiches ever. Very tasty!
Certainly the best in Philly! And, I would say it comes in a close third after Katz's and Langer's.
@@steveandyoung where is Langer's?
@@Kre8iviT27 Langer's is near downtown Los Angeles, open Monday through Saturday. One of our earlier videos is shot there.
@@steveandyoungno way I never had the one in Los Angeles Langer's, but Herschel's is definitely better than Katz's, my opinion and the opinion of several other foodies that I know!
Katz deli is so overrated and stupid expensive it's ridiculous. There's no reason for me to ever go there again.
Been to Herschel's many times though!
To each their own 🍀
@@MisterSpock-zs3kq Everyone has their own tastes and preferences. Let's agree that all three are very, very good! 😀
If you're not a scrapple fan, then don't say that chitlins taste the same as scrapple, because they don't and it doesn't sound like you had either one before. Also... "If you're a normal human being." who don't eat scrapple , its like saying people that like chocolate ice-cream are insane because you like vanilla. It's not a crime to eat things you don't like.
@Forgoneconclusion. I've tried them both, and don't like either. But there are folks who go crazy over them, and we don't fault them for that. Hey, everyones' tastebuds are different, right?
It's pronounced the way it is because in was built under the Philadelphia terminal of the Reading Railroad (take a look at your Monopoly board)
Yes, but why is the Reading Railroad pronounced that way?
John’s for cheesesteak
I've heard that. Have to go hungrier next time so I can try the cheesesteak there.
It's my home away from home....12 minute train ride....every store 100% on my list
Lucky you! If I could get there in 12 minutes, I'd probably be there for lunch every day.
I love sweets and anything Apple too. Enjoyable tour.
I love sweets and anything apple, as well. Looks like we need to do a special "apple-themed sweets" episode just for us!
Why did I watch this when I'm hungry? Big mistake!!!
Yeah, whenever we edit our videos to post here, it always makes us both hungry again!
Oh, how I loved my one & only first to Old City coffee. I brought coffee syrup home on the SEPTA rail, so I couldn't bring much home one my one & only trip. Hopefully soon! I know some of the Amish from LanCo....the Dienner family. My one friend must have fully retired (Smucker's Meats/Grill?) last time I check I didn't see him as a vendor. I am friends with a lot of Amish in LanCo.
Sounds like your love for coffee syrup knows no bounds! Maybe next time, you can start a coffee syrup fan club with your Amish friends from Lancaster County!
I didn't know about the scrapple chitlin connection. I hate them both but now I get it. Still would never eat either by choice.
Ah, the scrapple and chitlin saga-where culinary love stories go to die! But hey, at least we gained some knowledge, right?
This guy shouldn't be doing a Reading Terminal review (IMO). He didn't do breakfest at The Dutch Eating Place and why mention scrapple if he can't do a review? The Apple Dumpling is their own thing...But usually a to go order. Also DiNics has the best Roast Pork sandwich hands down...why even bring up Johns? (even though it is good) There's no horseraddish in DiNics beef...its a side offering. Dienner's Chicken is also amazing and worth showing and talking about. Didn't even show Termini Bros. Bakery....Best bakery in the place. Also the Ammish Ribs in the back are worth a mention.
We showed Diener's. Have to disagree with you on DiNic's. I thought John's was better. We did breakfast at the Dutch Eating Place. But, scrapple? Not our thing. We've had it before and we don't like it.
@@steveandyoungno scrapple or pork roll, no Philly breakfast
mine was dry nobody told me I had to ask for it to be a little fatty , thks for the heads up
Luckily, I had advance warning. Asking for it fatty made it very good.
scrapple is fantastic
I have a Korean niece who says the same thing about intestines. And I know some who won't touch foie or chopped liver, but I like those. To each his own, I guess.
It’s a shame that it’s so dangerous to go into Center City Philly bc RTM is a great place and the food is AMAZING, but it’s just not worth the risk of getting shot. Wild Wild West down there. 😢
We agree. Steve is a little braver, and will go almost anywhere. Sometimes, getting shot could be worth it if the food is good enough. 😉 But Young is more cautious. She stayed in the hotel most of the time if Steve did not go out with her. Still, we made it to some pretty good places.
That’s a lie. Center city is the safest place in Philly. You’re an outsider because it’s no way you’re from Philly and think it’s a chance you will be shot in center city. That’s one of the places you really feel comfortable without a concern
Is it easy to park for a reasonable price around there?
We don't know because we were staying in a hotel across the street, So we did not need to park.
What the name of the hotel
@@tanyadixon3444 We stayed at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, which was across the street from Reading Terminal Market
"Reading" as in the Railroad And DON'T FILM THE AMISH!!
Yes, pronounced "Redding." And, it's OK to video the Amish if you don't video their eyes. I learned that years ago while visiting Bird in Hand, PA.
Calm down. They're not complaining
