The New York Times Travel section’s tour of Philly’s restaurants this weekend gave some well-deserved praise to some of the city’s best. From the toasted marshmallow on the side of the bowl of Supper’s smoked sweet potato soup and the lobster cappuccino at JG Domestic to the salted caramel budino at Barbuzzo, the Gray Lady hit all the right notes. But when she puts it all into a context of “more than just cheesesteaks,” all that hype comes off like a big backhanded compliment. And the insult to injury? The piece misspells cheesesteak.
