"For about one blessed month a year, JJ Thai serves soft shell crabs in garlic sauce. We live for that month, and survive the remaining 11 on dreams of these crispy crustaceans. The Rittenhouse staple serves them crisp—never greasy—and tossed in a buttery, slightly sweet garlic sauce, then plated on top of just-wilted spinach and Chinese broccoli. You should be visiting JJ all year round for fantastic Thai staples, but if you’re not going in early summer for these crabs, we can’t be friends." - alison kessler, candis mclean
