The Best Soul Food In Philadelphia

"We dream about the platters from Sheba’s Soul Plate so often that we’ve started licking our fingers in our sleep. Inside the tiny West Philly spot, you order directly from the counter, listen to something sizzling while looking at a painting of Bob Marley, and end up eating melt-in-your-mouth food. When we’re at the part-Soul, part-Caribbean restaurant, we go for the BBQ chicken platter. The diced chicken is juicy and soaked in a perfectly tangy, smoked sauce. They rotate their sides, but if their collard greens or sugary candied yams are available, grab them, along with a bunch of napkins.   " - candis mclean
