The Hit List: New Philadelphia Restaurants To Try Right Now - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"As Philly’s only part-Indonesian, part-American restaurant, Griddle & Rice doesn’t need much else to stand out. But the Point Breeze counter-service spot also has an excellent menu  that mixes sambal-infused flavors of Indonesian cuisine with the spirit of a traditional American breakfast. Balance the fragrant heat of the nasi uduk with the berry and whipped cream-topped pancakes, or pair the smashed fried chicken smothered in chili-loaded sambal bawang with an egg and cheese sammy. The Indonesian influence extends to the drink menu, where lychee, basil chia seeds, and milo abound, but cookie butter lattes are also available if that’s more your speed. There are only 12 seats in the cheery dining room, but you can–and should–do as the entire neighborhood does and order ahead for pickup." - candis mclean, alison kessler, candis mclean, candis mclean, alison kessler, candis mclean, candis mclean, candis mclean, alison kessler, candis mclean, alison kessler, candis mclean, alison kessler
