Visiting Autumn Leaves

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us.

On our last day in Canada we are supposed to leave Toronto then visit Niagara Falls and then drive back to the States (Scranton to be exact, Joe Biden's birthplace)

Leaving Toronto in the morning for Niagara we passed by a rest place and decided to have brunch there.

Saw a Pakistani food shop who serves only take away, Zeerah

Location - https://maps.app.goo.gl/zttwJaTFfiAeU63h8?g_st=ic

Image

Image

I love Pakistani biryani so I went into the store.

Ordering counter
Image

Waiting area for customers
Image

I explained to the owner a lady that I love Pakistani food and asked her if she will allow us to eat there, she told us they only serve with food packed and told us if we don't mind we can stay and eat there

So this was what we got
Image

Opening them - Chicken biryani, beef curry, chicken curry, spinach
Image

The biryani.
Image

All I can say is this is one of the best meals we had in terms of the quality and taste. I highly recommend.

Because the journey from Toronto to New York City was a 9 hour journey I planned to stop over at Scranton for a night before NYC.

Checked into the Radisson Hotel in Scranton which used to be Scranton's railway station. By the way Scranton is the birthplace of Joe Biden.

Image

Classic

Scranton seemed to be a sleepy old town as most of the businesses were closed very early. So I had my dinner at the bar.

Image

Image

Image

Fantastic burger
