So, here are my Top 10 Food related TFLNs.  Feel free to disagree with me, but you can’t deny it: we’ve ALL been there, or wish we have been.

So when my Twitter reader started BINGing with a tweet from the local bar McGillin’s Olde Ale House — plenty of atmosphere, good food and great local microbrews — mentioning a special offer of $.25 wings, I knew what I’d be doing that evening.  McGillin’s may be the oldest continuously operating tavern in Philly (since 1860), but they’re au courant with a Twitter account.  Wings, twitter – you got my number, McGillin’s.
