Gettin' To Know The 570

Buckle up, folks! We're going on a wild ride with Chef Eric Keller, Executive Chef at Benny Brewing Company on the Sans Souci Highway in Hanover Township. Our journey starts in Nanticoke, heads to Rhode Island, then back to Wilkes-Barre, then a big pink hotel in Florida, then Philadelphia, then back, or was it Philly again, then we think it was Scranton, we heard Manayunk, and it's possible The Mohegan Sun was in there somewhere, too... Needless to say, this Chef has put in some miles! But after this, that, and the other, all roads lead to Benny Brewing Co., where he and his team of Culinary Wizards are cranking out some of the tastiest food that you'll find, in one of the busiest restaurants in NEPA! You won't want to miss a second of this one, and if you haven't tried his food yet, then plug Benny Brewing into the old GPS, and head on in!
