"PHILADELPHIA During the BYOB tasting menu experience at Honeysuckle Provisions in West Philly, we argued over the Mount Rushmore of rap artists while eating truffle and egg toast, and learned about the origins of the trifoliate oranges growing down the street without feeling like we’d be quizzed on it later. So unless your city has a place like that, the $95 meal at this Afrocentric cafe is going to stick with you for a while. You’ll take trips to the kitchen, eat pickled radishes from last year’s garden haul, and hear about the Ghanaian chocolate industry straight from the chefs. Each dish—like a take on yakamein with homemade whole wheat ramen noodles—highlights Black foodways and Black farmers. And everything is just plain old excellent." - anne cruz
