Radnor Lake State Park

Percy Warner Park

The Southern Steak & Oyster

Where we celebrated our Engagement!! We were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and just left the Collective Soul concert at Ascend Arena, the restaurant is a short walk over and just before we turned the corner to go in ... Brad dropped down on one knee right outside of the restaurant to surprise me and ask me to be his forever. It will be a special night and place to us always; however it is also a GREAT place to go anytime: brunch, lunch, OR dinner. It's an upscale ( but still family friendly) version of southern food. We’d highly recommend the scallops for dinner! *** ps: I was SURE I’d know when he’d ask me ... thinking he’d have the box in his pocket ... or maybe hidden in his boot. Sneaky sneaky, he opted for no box and had it hidden in his pocket. Boom - surprised!!
