• At Stella Pizzeria Craig LaBan finds a “hearty crock” of sheep’s milk ricotta cheese, “gilded with a golden drizzle of fresh, nutty Frantoia olive oil,” is “addictive.” [Good Taste]

• Brian Freedman “gets to the heart of” New Phonm Penh’s pig heart and liver-laden combination noodle soup, savoring its “distinctly earthy, organ-y aroma and flavor,” and concludes the Seafood with Ginger’s success “rested on the unexpected yellow curry perfume.” [PW]

• Despite an “unfortunate” mac & cheese experience, Adam Erace still recommends Baby Blues’ “moist” cornbread as “a nice option for vegetarians and stoned coeds alike,” and pronounces the “the pink-ringed meats” the “real stars” at the University City barbecue joint. [Citypaper]

• Phyllis Stein-Novack ordered Village Belle’s “beautifully grilled” lamb chops and “gnawed the meat completely from the bone,” while sipping a “right on the mark” 2008 Garnacha & Petit Verdot blend, Sa Ra Da, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. [South Philly Review]
