Amazing eats at the Mount Airy Lodge!

In our relaxing Pocono’s Mount Airy Lodge getaway, we relaxes had great entertainment and we were able to eat some fantastic food located right in the resort just a short elevator ride away from our room. After working Friday, we made the 2 hour drive up to the resort, so needless to say we were HUNGRY! After checking in, we dropped out bags off and made a b-line straight to Guy Fieri’s Mt. Pocono Kitchen.
Being that we’re fans of Guy Fieri, we were excited to finally get a chance to eat at one of his establishments, and we weren’t disappointed! We started out with Guy’s Vegas Fries, this is something that was originally concocted on the campus of UNLV back when Guy was in college and for a let’s just toss stuff together college kid meal these fries were incredible. 
Crispy fries tossed in home-made buffalo wing sauce, topped with blue cheese crumbles and served with cool blue-sabi (blue cheese & wasabi) dipping sauce. These suckers were a meal all on their own. If you’re a fan of chicken wings, you’ll like these, if you’re a fan of fries, you’ll like these. If you’re a fan of flavorful food…again, you’ll like these. Not too spicy, the sauce had just the right amount of heat and it wasn’t just hot heat, it was flavorful heat.


Moving along to entrees, I went with the Turkey Picnic sandwich. House smoked turkey, Swiss cheese, citrus-cranberry relish, crispy BBQ chips on the sandwich and donkey sauce (mayo, garlic, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, & pepper.) This sandwich and accompanying donkey sauce were out of bounds. I love turkey sandwiches and this sandwich put me in mind of a jacked up Thanksgiving dinner on a roll.

Do you ever just want to get away? Away from the normal stresses from everyday life? With our busy lives it may be hard to get away as often as you can, but we really need to make the time for ourselves, time to enjoy life and each other. If you are looking for a great weekend getaway look no further than the Mount Airy Lodge in the Poconos. The Mount Airy Resort has so many things to offer you while staying there, from a world class casino, top flight entertainment, a wonderful spa, a salon, great restaurants an 18 hole golf course, and so much more.  
The Mount Airy Casino is famous for our absolutely astonishing giveaways, prizes and winnings. From chances to win $1,000,000 to a new car, Mount Airy always has the most exciting promotions. Between the tournaments and the bonus slot play there was a lot to entice you to gamble and have fun.  While we were there the promotion was a kitchen appliance giveaway (each weekend in April you get a chance to earn a small kitchen appliance, from hand mixers to toasters and more) there were so many people happily walking around with electronic can openers!

When I think of the Poconos, I think of the Poconos of my childhood. Awful hotels that haven’t been updated since Eisenhower was in office, awful (but plentiful) food, and almost no amenities. I lived this as a child being bored out of my skull being trapped in a room that had awful beds, terrible bathrooms and ZERO televisions! This past weekend my husband and I had the chance to head up to the Poconos and experience what the Mount Airy Casino Resort had to offer….let me tell you this isn’t the Poconos of my childhood!
What a beautiful hotel. The outside of the hotel was simply stunning, it was well lit, well maintained and beautiful. From the outside this looked like a AAA 4 Diamond Award winner (because it is!) We arrived and were greeted by the lovely high ceiling lobby that has a warm modern cabin feel. Check-in was a breeze, finding our room was a breeze…..about our room….wow. We’ve stayed in a lot of hotels some good, some bad, and some great. The Mt. Airy Resort would definitely fall into the great category.
