15 Unmissable Seafood Dishes In Philly Right Now - Philadelphia - The Infatuation
"Mawn is a tiny BYOB in Bella Vista known for excellent Cambodian dishes that we’d eat every day (if only we could get in). And the littleneck somlaw macchi is no exception. It’s a bowl of clams that bob around in a tamarind lemongrass, basil oil, and Thai chili broth that looks almost volcanic orange. But it’s not fiery—it’s rich, creamy, and layered with flavor. It’s the clam dish of our fantasies, and by that we mean our regular, everyday lives, wherein we think about it constantly until we get to eat it again. If you’re free during the day, this BYOB is open for lunch on Thursday through Saturdays between 11am-2:30pm—and this may be your best bet at actually getting in. When it comes to dinner, they release reservations every 30 days. If you don’t find success there, you can always try to walk in with a few strangers, grab a table as the last guests are leaving, and exclaim “Finders Keepers!” when you sit down. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - alison kessler, candis mclean
