The chicken comes with a hot fresh donut (I went with the honey ginger, which was excellent). Grab a window seat if you can to enjoy both your chicken and donut.
Bill Addison: "Order 2 dishes: lobes of sashimi-grade scallops backstroking through buttermilk & a bowl of dashi decorated with trompe l'oeil, including gelatinized cubes of crème fraiche & pea pods." En savoir plus .
The breads and pastries are phenomenal - we loved the Red Eye Gravy Danish and the selection of salads and vegetables reminded us of the bountiful spread found at Ottolenghi in London.
Chewy, fresh-baked laffa bread, crisp Haloumi piled over a smear of date jam, an exemplary raw kibbe, peppers stuffed with rice and walnuts & juicy housemade merguez sausage.
One man, one oven, amazing pizza. Joe Beddia is the face of Philly's high-end pizza renaissance, and everyone in town agrees it's the best. A must-visit for out-of-towners. [Eater 38 Member]
Currently, best restaurant in Philly! Have the scallops, tuna or gnocchi! And finish with pudding!
loved the skillet cornbread ($5). served hot out of the oven, with chunks of cheddar inside and a nice kick with each bite from the jalapeños!
Don't forget to try the shop's specialty Monkey Bar which tops a pecan and brown sugar crust with dried coconut, banana slices, chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. En savoir plus .
One of the best roast pork sandwiches in Philly and the best thing in Reading Terminal Market. Get it with sharp provolone and broccoli rabe. The line may be long, but this sandwich is worth the wait.
Dinner at Vetri is a performance. The pastas stun, the mains are as creative as anything being turned out in the city right now, and the service is beyond reproach. En savoir plus .
If I made a list of my top-ten dishes of 2011, three would come from Olexy's big-city spot: braised rabbit with handkerchief pasta, soft-shell crab with spicy fennel pickle, and golden potato gnocchi.
A neighborhood-friendly destination from the first bite of its now-trademark toasts to some of the most impressive high-end New American cuisine in the city. En savoir plus .
Order your dough in advance ... ie you need to make a reservation. It's not as complicated as people make it out to be.
The chicken and waffles are yummy. Put some syrup on the waffles then take a bite with chicken and the gravy. Super fantastic!

Best vegetarian restaurant in the city. Menu changes pretty frequently to keep things fresh and their cocktails are solid. "I don't always eat vegetarian, but when I do...I prefer V Street."
We love Chef/Owner Marcie Turney's take on Spanish Tapas, as well as the extensive beverage menu featuring great cocktails, many wines by the glass and an excellent selection of sherrys.
