How did the popular magazine come up with this tantalizing list?

The article says, "Over the past year, we crisscrossed the nation, sampling some two hundred new dining establishments that serve almost every conceivable type of cuisine. After a series of spirited debates, we settled on fifty restaurants that stood out from the rest."

Pietramala

One of the restaurants from Philadelphia that made the list is Pietramala on 2nd Street. I took a look at the website and it says it's an intimate, plant-based BYOB that uses all locally sourced produce and other foods to make its dishes in-house.

The Esquire magazine says in part, "With Pietramala, chef Ian Grave and his crew deliver the Fugazi of veganism."

Honeysuckle Provisions

Honeysuckle Provisions on 48th Street serves breakfast and lunch. It also has a café and bakery. The Egg and Greens Danish looks so good...actually everything does.

The article says in part, "Billed as an Afrocentric grocery and café, Provisions (true to its name) provides the makings of a great day: steaming breakfast sandwiches and juicy plantain snack cakes, tubs of Haitian potato salad and a made-from-scratch turkey hoagie that's as delicious as any American sandwich you can sink your teeth into."

My Loup

My Loup, a new French restaurant on Walnut Street, near Rittenhouse Square, is the 3rd Philly restaurant that made the list.

The chefs (and owners), Alex and Amanda, are married and the dishes are their collaborations.

The article says in part, "But it's the witty menu that really showcases the chefs' talents: Who can resist deep-fried 'Philly balls' stuffed with roast pork sandwich fixings, or a dish where you're instructed to wrap slices of cold roast beef around fries as a schoolkid would. My Loup is guaranteed to cure any bad days."
