Note the Pennsylvania specialty of hominy & puddin meat. 😋

Another Pennsylvania specialty, grilled (meaning griddled) sticky bun:

Lay down a load of butter on the hot griddle and flash-fry both sides of the bun. 😋 😋

It's lovely but aside from the logo the food isn't Dutch at all but I'm sure you know that.
I'm sure it's Pennsylvania Dutch though!

Yep, it’s not meant to be Dutch-Dutch - that’s what we’d call Netherlands-Dutch, to emphasis, like, “My new boyfriend is Dutch…like not just Dutch, but Dutch-Dutch!”

We do that with most other-country things, to distinguish between an American/Americanized version of something and “the real thing.”

I think Pennsylvania Dutch are actually of German descent? I'll have to Google that.

I haven't had sticky buns since I was a kid. Messy, but oh so good.

The first time I ever had one off the diner griddle was in a Conshohocken, PA diner, in 1997.

I was sent out to King of Prussia for some training (useless, BTW), and I spent all my free time driving around finding little taverns and diners to drink/eat at (everyone else in class went to chain places right by the big mall there).

I went in this little diner, sat at the counter, had a western omelette, and watched the cook throw cinnamon rolls and sticky buns, one after the other, on the griddle, and fry them like hamburgers, flipping halfway through.

“I don’t know what he’s doin’, but I’d like one of those, please.”

Now we get one (at least one) every time we come over here. Most diners serve them.

Isn't that mall in King of Prussia like the size of a small city? I think I read they were building a highway from Philadelphia to that mall.

I can't imagine there being anything but big chain restaurants there.

Yes, at least it was the last time I was in the area, the last time was probably that 1997 visit. That’s why everyone else wanted to go there.

When we lived in Delaware (95-96), we’d run up there because there was (still is?) a Christopher Radko Christmas shop up there - all glass-blown stuff like we like.

ETA: Wiki says it’s the fifth-largest mall in the US, 450 retailers.
