Supermarkets have made rotisserie chicken an easy meal option. Well Joe’s Poultry Farm takes it to the next level with just one of the best rotisserie chicken meals around. I had a full rack of ribs added and made it a huge carnivore delight. Service was super friendly and prices are extremely reasonable. A great grab and go place for sure and you should add them to your list of ideas when you need a quick meal.

This place is a little bit everything all in one stop. They publish a weekly free magazine, have a retail store, run a real gas station, and best of all have a restaurant and bar here as well. You would think all of the other things could distract from the food, but thankfully the food was some of the best around. Had the Thai shrimp and coconut soup which was down right fabulous with huge pieces of shrimp, Thai lobster curry with very generous portions of lobster and full of flavor, and an order of naan. It is such a cool place to not only visit, but to eat at as well.

This place is just great. Everything we had was top notch. Had dumplings in chili oil, pork fried rice, dan dan noodle, salt and pepper style scallops, three cup chicken, and black bean style beef. Highly recommended if in the area.

This place is just great. All sorts of specialty chocolates and sweets to choose from along with tasty dessert options. I had their hot chocolate which was so good along with vanilla bean bread pudding with salted caramel and whipped cream. Just delicious all around.

With most minds in the month of February thinking about chocolate there is no better destination than RIM Cafe for your chocolate needs. From the hot chocolate this is just out of this world, to the Bella Chocolate Heaven Bar with house made caramel, Peanut Butter, salty peanuts, and pretzels in a chocolate bar, to the large chocolate cannoli which is imported Sicilian Cannoli shell, dipped in our dark chocolate and filled with traditional house made ricotta & mascarpone cream, and dusted with powdered sugar. RIM Cafe may be overshadowed by their better known neighbors Geno’s and Pat’s Steaks, but no visit to this area is complete without a treat from them as well for any Philadelphian or visitor.

Operating out of Denim BYOB is Cluckwerks Takeout. You can either order on DoorDash to have delivered or pickup paying with credit card, or call Denim BYOB directly to order and pay with cash if you call Denim directly for pickup. The chicken was delicious in every way in my order. The K-Town Sandwich was by far my favorite with fried chicken, Korean BBQ sauce, Kimchi slaw, and sesame seeds. I could have eaten multiple sandwiches at one sitting. The kid chicken tenders with tator tots was spot on delicious and could taste that the chicken was brined in pickle juice it seemed. The grilled chicken Caesar salad was perfect as well. A great concept and tasty meals coming out of here.

One might equate that something coming out of the rear might be crappy. When you enter from behind it is normally out of the ordinary as you just don’t enter without permission. It could be messy or even stinky back there. The back door is usually just for exit, not entry. This is beginning to change and many are being receptive to having others penetrate this once taboo place to do your business. Well The Farm and Fisherman Tavern has taken the plunge with Back Door Pizza and it’s a well lubed operation. You order online, choose date and time to arrive, go to the rear of the strip mall, knock on door, and you are handed the food and on your way minimal contact or interaction. The highlight of the meal I ordered was having the Buttery Nut in my mouth. The Buttery Nut pizza is local butternut squash, butternut squash puree, fresh mozzarella, sage, and finished with a drizzle of brown butter and just amazing. The plain pizza is delicious as well with three local mozzarellas, pecorino, and tomato sauce. The meal was enjoyable from start to finish and if in the mood, I would certainly come again.
