Just think: With a little punctuation I might actually understand what you’re saying here.

Isn’t The Pop Shop the one that is owned by that actor who was in Invincible?

The Pop Shop is on Haddon Ave and the best! They have 30 different kinds of grilled cheese. Yeah it’s noisy and full of kids and the staff is kind of weird, but 30 kinds of grilled cheese!!

yeah. his name is stink. he shoulda named his restaurant after his name, cos it’d be all the more fitting.

i thought this was gonna be great alycia, but you know what? they end up being just sandwiches that happen to have cheese in them, not a “grilled cheese.” like there is chicken with pesto and tomatoes and oh! there’s cheese in it. booooo.

and sammy, my the scrabbled sucks.

30 kinds of grilled cheese is not tempting enough to make me venture out and eat that poorly cooked low quality diner food again.

sorry pop shop, you lose.

there are really a lot of really good restaurants down here. the painted cottage opened a cafe and it’s really good, comfort food-type sandwiches and soups in this little cottage-like atmosphere.

also, bistro di marino just opened a take-out side so you can get big, yummy italian dinners quickly.

you can even use it at the doctor’s office. a client of ours saved $1200 on her daughter’s braces. i’m loving this.

Fair enough. The Pop Shop does have terrible fries. But I like it once in awhile, especially for dessert. The Collingswood Cash thing is really a good idea because there are so many good places to eat. Does the Painted Cottage sell crepes? I had crepes from there at the farmers market once. So good!

theres an italian joint i went to down there one day but i cant remember the name of it. mightve started with a v. its one of the first restruants you pass when entering the main drag.

the painted cottage has griddle cakes, which are their version of pancakes. that may be what you had. there also used to be crepe place right next to it that closed.

probably villa barone. i really like that place too.

that would be it.

by the way the small version of your picture makes it look like you have to most hideous unibrow ever.

haha that’s pretty much the idea. check out the larger picture. a fake mustache has many uses.

Yeah, I went there with my parents once since they heard of it. I got a bacon cheeseburger and it sucked. If you can somehow screw up a bacon cheeseburger, you shouldn’t be in business.

right, because having food in your sandwich is such a terrible thing. of course, i’ve never been there. but this is an awful reason not to eat there. possibly the worst reason i’ve ever heard.

I agree. Although I haven’t been there since Christina put a jihad on the place over a year ago, I didn’t mind it that much when we did go. It wasn’t great, but I’ve had worse… which is what “she” said. Every time.

Also: Luke, how much Collingswood cash would it take to buy your forgiveness?

Heidi and I ate there and it wasn’t bad at all. Not great, but as far as grilled cheese goes, it did it for me.

Fixed it.

what i mean is that the sandwiches are GOOD, but aren’t necessarily grilled cheeses. so, the whole “wow. 85 types of grilled cheeses” thing doesn’t hold up.

I believe a grilled cheese is, by definition, a sandwich with cheese grilled into both slices of bread. As far as I could tell, they were all grilled cheese of some form.

sammy those horses aren’t fighting, I’ll tell you more when you get older.

Aww, now I feel like the kid in the picture after the fighting coots.

I’m lukewarm about the place. Fun atmosphere, but my milkshake was pure liquid (and the oreo pieces all fell to the bottom). The pancakes are big enough to last three meals, but you end up wishing they only lasted for one (but you’re cheap so you eat them anyway).

how did this (inevitably) turn into a discussion about the pop shop? ha.

okay, another collingswood suggestion – you can use your collingswood cash at robert jay’s. it’s an antique shop but it’s kitschy stuff and there are cool books! it’s not like your typical collingswood antique store. most ppl steer clear of it because it’s small and packed, but that’s where you find the best stuff.

Didn’t we already discuss how terrible kitsch is?

and you wrote “ppl”
