Fishtown / Newbold / South Philadelphia / Stephen Starr

Philly Food Notes (5/15-5/21)

  • Circles Contemporary Asian Cafe at 1514 Tasker Street in South Philadelphia is now open! It’s open every night for dine-in or take-out dinner as well as weekend brunch. I attended a preview party a few weeks ago which featured a sampling of some of their popular dishes – all quite tasty!
  • Frankford Hall, Stephen Starr’s open air German Beer Garden in Fishtown, has opened to the delight of beer drinkers in Philadelphia. Initial reviews say go for the beer, but keep low expectations about the food. Read more: Meal Ticket | Foobooz | uwishunu
  • Controversy continues to surround new East Passyunk restuarant & bar Stateside due to its liquor license. Rumor mongers are claiming it will be an after-hours club, while those with more common sense are believing otherwise.
