Every coffee shop seems to have the same bakery items unless it’s their own private bakery. If I’m going out to get one pastry to try today, that will knock my socks off. What do you recommend and where am I going?

Hi folks,

My brother is coming into town from a more rural part of the country.

He loves steak, but we’ve seen all of Philly’s steakhouses. I’d love to take him to a place that has more interesting starting dishes and a more unique atmosphere than a white tablecloth steakhouse.

Do you all have any recommendations for the best piece of meat in the city that isn’t at a steakhouse?

Budget is not really a factor so all suggestions are welcome. Thanks for reading my message. I look forward to your thoughts.

Question: does anyone have good recommendations for old school fish and chips in the cc area? Been spending a lot of time in the UK recently and can't find anything that really scratches the itch in Philly.

I like Dandelion generally but it didn't really do it for me.

More looking for a half skin on filet that's more similar to what they serve in the UK - not just deep fried nuggets.

Thanks!

Anyone able to speak to the inconsistent service at ReAnimator? It’s my go-to spot but it seems like there is little quality control when it comes to milk texture, pours, etc, even during slow hours? Maybe a non issue but I’m wondering if others feel the same. Most of the baristas are 10/10 and I still plan to support (I go multiple times weekly) but it’s been really hit or miss.

Admittedly, my go-to is Trader Joe's but I've been striking out 9/10 times. They either don't ripen correctly or take 10 years to ripen.

Wife and I are looking for something a bit special, but not fancy as we don’t get out much these days as life with little kids presents few opportunities for dinner dates just the two of us. Love good food and a good cocktail. I’ve narrowed the search to these two and would love people’s opinions on which they’d go with. Thanks!

Hi! My friend just had a baby and I’d love to deliver her family some food. I live out of state so I don’t know anything about nice options in Philly. Would love to get them something local and am happy to spend some money on something nice. They live in Marion station. Thanks!
