Good evening all! Anyone have a good traditional Haluski recipe they're willing to share?

Preferably a family recipe that my Scranton born husband would find familiar and therefore tasty. His mother was of Slovakian and Lithianian descent, if that helps. TIA!

All you can eat sushi?

Hello! I’m going to scranton with my boyfriend for thanksgiving weekend and I am looking for an AYCE place in or near Scranton, but google has not been helpful at all! We prefer a la carte over buffet style. Anything from $20- $50 per person is great :)

Looking for Recommendations on moving to Wilkes-Barre area

Hi everyone!

My company wants me to transfer to their location in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and I’m looking for recommendations on where to live nearby. I’m in my mid-twenties, looking to rent and would love to find an area with plenty to do outside of work—restaurants, social spots, outdoor activities, etc. Safety is a big priority, too.

I’ve been checking out places on Zillow and even browsing TikTok, but I’m still having trouble finding the right fit. Some people have suggested looking closer to Allentown/Lehigh Valley since there’s more going on there, and I’d be open to a commute of up to 45 minutes if it means being in a more vibrant area.

If anyone has recommendations for safe, lively places to live in that range, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks in advance for the help!

Any gun owners here? Looking for some advice

I've had my license to carry for two years, but I've never gotten around to actually using it. Never fired or even held a gun in my life, so I'm not really sure where to start. Any recommendations on local gun stores or places to get started? I know Roll Call over on Keyser Ave does gun safety lessons. Has anyone tried that? So yeah if there are any gun owners here or anyone who has some experience, I'd love to pick your brain. Thanks!

University of Scranton area questions

My daughter applied as it has the program she is looking for, but I am unfamiliar with the school and area. How is the safety in the area and are there shops, restaurants, and bars that are walkable from the campus?

16th Ward

Anyone ever work there, or know someone who works there??. Wanna know about the company vibe. I work at a cocktail bar now with rough management and protocol. Place could be good, but kinda sad the way it’s run. Therefore, I wanna work in a similar vibe. 16th ward rules in my own dining experiences there. Would be nice to know it’s run well too. Lmk thanks! Dm too if you rather not put info in the comments!!!!

Kamala coming to Scranton?

Has anyone heard if Kamala is coming to Scranton tomorrow? Wondering where and when, and if it will affect schools like Trump’s previous visit.
