Pickle quesadilla? …Interesting.
• Craig’s upset about the state of the Philly dinner scene.
• That Silk City’s kitchen may “only just be starting to find its groove.”
• New chef Matt Ball is doing a good job.
• The cononut shrimp are too damn sweet.
Money quote of the article?
Silk City’s best dishes are the starters, like the quesadillas stuffed with tender pulled BBQ pork and crunchy pickles(!), empanadas stuffed with chipotle-braised chicken, heartily spiced chili, and excellent calamari and rock shrimp fried in a cornmeal crust. The Thai-styled baby back ribs were also great, slicked with a sweet chile sauce and peanuts.
