"The pastas at this date-night favorite in Fishtown always highlight seasonal ingredients. A couple of the standouts are the sweet-and-savory crab ravioli, and the ribbons of mafalde in a shiso butter sauce. But if the Thai-inspired linguine with mussels is on the menu, get it—there are hints of vanilla and nuttiness from the fig leaf flavor, which somehow goes with the peppery hit of turmeric. We’ve never had another dish like it." - alison kessler, candis mclean
