Are you from Manayunk? If not, what brings you here?

I'm not; I work in the gallery, I'm the gallery director here. I actually came for Danny Simmons' art exhibition and that's when I met Lenny and I started working.

Have you attended any Manayunk events?

The StrEAT Festival... the food fest. I'm a big foodie, so I loved it! I love trying new foods.

What's your favorite thing to do in the area?

I think window shop. I'm big on window shopping but I love food, too, so I just like to walk around during my free time and find new restaurants.

What restaurant would you recommend to a newcomer?

Oh my gosh, I'm still learning, so I wouldn't even know! I mean, the Chai Bistro is good. I've heard Union Taco's amazing, but I haven't tried it personally.

What do you love about Manayunk?

I think it's like, it's own little culture. I live in Center City and it's nothing like it; it's a little more home-y, kind of suburban but not really, and it still has a city vibe but it's more like a cute little cultured town. And it has really good food and good shopping!
