Have you ever tried scrapple? This mixture of pork, cornmeal, flour, and seasonings is an American classic. While it may sound strange at first, it's very satisfying and well worth trying. Whether you've had scrapple before or are thinking of sampling it for the first time, November 9th is the day to enjoy it. On this day, the U.S. celebrates National Scrapple Day. You could celebrate by making scrapple at home, but our real estate agents can also recommend a few Harrisburg restaurants that serve the dish.
- Keystone Restaurant: 1000 N. 3rd St., Harrisburg, PA 17102
Keystone Restaurant is a casual American restaurant that serves breakfast and lunch. They have scrapple on their breakfast menu, and customers often enjoy it alongside eggs and hashbrown potatoes. This would be a great place to enjoy a quick breakfast with family or friends.
If some of your fellow diners aren't in the mood for scrapple, there are plenty of other things to order at Keystone. The French Toast is a favorite, and guests also love the three-egg omelets.
