  1. I've had good experiences at Little Thai Kitchen, which is in a surprising little strip mall in Cherry Hill. When they say hot, they mean it. There's also great South Indian vegetarian (including dosas) at Rajbhog and perfectly good Vietnamese at Pho Eden. Same strip. As for Thai in Philly, after I've finished a meal at most, I ask myself, Why didn't I just get Vietnamese?

  2. Good call on Dante's. As for Domino's and Papa John's flourishing in a place with so much good pizza, you'll have to tell me where the good pizza is in Overbrook, because I haven't had any. I go to Pica's in Upper Darby, but they don't deliver.
  3. I was driving by old Zeke's BBQ on Lancaster Avenue the other day, excited to see a bunch of activity in the parking lot... until I realized that it had become a Domino's.
  4. Regarding spice level, if you like them on the spicier side, make sure you indicate. I think Chris' is a little concerned about making them too spicy but they will spice to suit your tastes...
  5. Saw the previous post about crawfish in Kimberton, so I thought I'd chime in and let you know that Chris' Jazz Cafe just started doing crawfish daily. They have a nice, spicy boil going and are experimenting with different sources. The staff told me yesterday that they were expecting a shipment of 90 pounds of live crawfish from Louisiana today around noon. It's $10 a bucket (about 20 depending on size) and goes well with the $10 buckets of Coronitas, though I'm more a fan of the $2 Kenzingers... So if you're in the neighborhood tonight, there will be plenty of bugs to go around. I see a bucket of crawfish at Chris' followed by a plate of Delaware Bay salts at the Oyster house in my future.
  6. Heading to Milwaukee this weekend and I'm wondering where to eat. Seems that Milwaukee likes its fish fries, chili, gyros... what am I missing? Any strong opinions on the best in each of those categories? Looking not just for great food but also a good experience. Happy to hit the VFW posts and social clubs (Serb Hall, etc) if that's where I have to go... Any help would be appreciated. THANKS
  7. FYI, many of you probably know that Pojangmacha closed. Then they moved to 55 Garrett in Upper Darby. That location has closed as well... I'm told that they are looking for a location outside of UD.
  8. I was just in a play down at Old Swedes Church at Front and Christian, so the Ugly American became our official hang. We did opening night AND closing night parties there, not to mention unofficial parties till the wee hours on the nights in between. I'll let you all debate the food, but I can say that they effortlessly dealt with the throngs of people we brought in with us each night, sometimes more than 30 people in one shot. Service was sharp, professional, and friendly in that way that a restaurant that is part neighborhood tavern should be. My only complaint is that the house CD system seems to be on a switch that abruptly turns it off the exact second that you select a song on the jukebox. My friends leered at me when their tune was knocked off by my selection of Paradise City. And yo, don't knock my musical tastes.
  9. Have a layover in Charlotte tonight around dinnertime... Any suggestions on good food at the airport?
  10. Anyone have any favorite ethnic restaurants in Camden, New Jersey? Vietnamese, Mexican, whatever...
  11. If the Sunrise Diner is on the left side of the road on the way into town and just before or after a bend in the road, that would be the one. Also had a very good meal, though not cheap, at the Black Bread Cafe.
  12. This may be too vague to be remotely helpful, but there is a great little old school luncheonette on the left-hand side of the road going into town, just before you hit the main drag. I cannot remember the name, but I think you will know what I am talking about as you drive in. Great for breakfast.
  13. Thank you for all of the suggestions. Seems like I have lots of eating to do.
  14. Hi, I'll be in Milwaukee for a couple of days in September, and I was hoping a Milwaukee member would be kind enough to give me the lay of the land, foodwise. I'm more interested in old-school than the newest restaurants. Have time for 2 each of the 3 meals of the day. Will have a car for half the time, but that's not really an issue. Am happy to cab it. Thanks, VICTOR
  15. Subzi Mandi on Street Road in Bensalem should have the mangoes tomorrow...
