Was recently advised of a new restaurant Grand Opening that for some reason has been completely under the radar and not well known. Well after my visit there, they should be in the lineup for anyone that lives around that area to try. The service was very friendly, prices were decent for the quality and quantity of food, and they are next to a municipal parking lot making it easier to get to them on the busy road they sit on. The interior is nicely done for how tiny the location is. They are 99% take-out only as it looked like a total of around 10 seats with about 4-5 tables available for a cozy and tight dining experience if you decided to eat there. Tried a little bit of everything and it was all top notch. I had their shrimp fried rice that was packed with shrimp and very flavorful, Beef Drunken Noodles and the beef was a step above most places as it seemed it was fresh sliced and a really nice texture with a good balance throughout, the Beef Pad See Ew was fantastic, Steamed Crab Cakes were good little morsels to pop in your mouth, Lemongrass Soup was very tasty and had a profile popping with all sorts of tastes and nice slices of chicken, Panang Curry with chicken was solid, and the Thai Tea that was given as a gift for coming in and having to wait just a few minutes while everything was ready was so nice of them and best part is was a yummy treat. They might not be well known right now, but I have a feeling the more people who visit, word will get out. If ever around the area, they are a great addition to the food scene and you should give them a try.

Small Bites Radio Episode 182

EPISODE SUMMARY

Small Bites is still thrilled and humbled to win Metro Philly’s Best of Best 2023 Arts & Entertainment category last week. We close out 2023 with our last episode of the year with a show so big it is close to 3 hours long with some of the biggest names in the food industry!!! See you again in 2024.

D and L Coffee Service Inc. presents Small Bites Radio the #1 listed “Food Radio show Philadelphia” and #1 listed “Food Radio show South Jersey”. Our newest episode has a fantastic lineup! #SmallBitesRadio has been named #14 out of the Top 30 Best Hospitality Shows on the planet for 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, #23 Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Influencer in 2021, 2022, and 2023 and nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper as 2022’s Best of Philly Arts & Entertainment, and Winner of Metro Philly Newspaper 2023’s Best of Philly Arts & Entertainment.

John Howard-Fusco started the show off talking about SIN Philadelphia, Schulson Collective restaurants, Royal Tavern, South Jersey Food Scene, Wawa, Philadelphia Pretzel Factory, and more.

We had a fantastic conversation with Frankie Faison (01:58:30 of episode), a talented and accomplished actor and a legend in the entertainment industry with a successful career spanning several decades. He is best known for his versatile performances in film, television, and on stage. One of his most notable roles is as Commissioner Ervin Burrell in the critically acclaimed television series “The Wire.” Faison’s contributions to the entertainment industry have been significant, and his performances have left a lasting impact on audiences and critics alike. Now he is entering the food industry with a successful launch of Frankie’s Fabulous Granola with an anticipated nationwide launch in 2024. After spending more than 2 decades carefully crafting his recipe, Frankie is ready to share his product with the world! During the actors strike, with every bag that was sold, a portion of the proceeds were donated to the SAG-AFTRA Emergency Relief Fund to help support those in his union during the strike against the AMPTP. Frankie’s Fabulous Granola is hand made (and mixed) with love and care. Each batch is crafted in small quantities to guarantee freshness and flavor. Using only the finest organic ingredients, their granola is the perfect combination of crunch and sweetness, making it a delightful addition to your breakfast or snack time.

With the holiday season in full force in the Philadelphia area we welcomed Grace Gosnar (59:30 of episode) Marketing Coordinator for Teddy Sourias’s Craft Concepts Group. CCG really goes all out to make any visit a full sensory experience. The collection of CCG restaurants, bars, beer gardens and pop-up concepts focuses on showcasing and being a driver in the elevation of Philadelphia’s thriving dining and nightlife scene. Their locations include BRU Craft & Wurst, U-Bahn, Kontrol, Finn McCool’s Ale House, Uptown Beer Garden, Tradesman’s, Blume Burger, Sueño, Tinsel holiday pop-up bar, and more.

Coming soon to Philadelphia is Bake’N Bacon that will open a new bacon themed restaurant in South Philly. We chat with Chef/Owner Justin Coleman (01:16:50 of episode) about the new 2,500 sq. feet space that will seat around 74 people inside and around two dozen outside, with room for more as they complete additional dining and event space. From the kitchen, foodies will find Bacon BBQ, Bacon Mac, Bacon Buffalo Sandwiches – and more handhelds, plus Bacon Burnt Ends, Bacon Caramel Pound Cake, Chocolate Covered Bacon, and Coleman’s favorites Savory Brisket Waffle and Bacon Brisket Sandwich. The restaurant and bar will have a full liquor license with a menu of cocktails designed special to pair with the bacon-centric food offerings. Talking about bacon we even discussed 322 BBQ’s triple smoked candied bacon.

Steve Luttmann (23:10 of episode) of Hercules Mulligan Rum and Rye available at Reading Terminal Market joined us to describe how they started and the history of the name. A unique recipe from the era of revolution and self-determination, custom-tailored for the modern independent thinker. Perfectly balanced Caribbean Aged Rum & American Rye Whiskey create an equilibrium of duality. The Rum & Rye blend is combined with macerated, fresh organic ginger – not artificial flavors. And it’s the essence of this magical root that gives the blend a kick and builds its distinctive character. The potion is finished with a dash of bespoke bitters that add that extra flavor. No fakery, only honest-to-God ingredients that capture the essence of a bittersweet life.

A little more conversation about cocktails with Carey Jones & Mixologist John McCarthy (37:40 of episode) joined us to talk about their new book ‘Every Cocktail Has a Twist: Master 25 Classic Drinks and Craft More Than 200 Variations’ published by Countryman Press. You love your favorite libations, but sometimes you want something different that you know you’ll like. Providing all the tools you need to create delicious new concoctions, this comprehensive collection reconfigures 25 timeless tipples, from Bloody Marys, Daiquirís, and Manhattans to Margaritas, Negronis, and Old-Fashioneds.

Jeremy Scheck (07:25 of episode) has charmed a new generation of home cooks with his simple yet remarkably tasty recipes and his reliable culinary know-how. Now, in this stunning and personal book ‘ScheckEats―Cooking Smarter: Friendly Recipes with a Side of Science’ published by Harvest & William Morrow HarperCollins it is brimming with approachable recipes and step-by-step guidance. Jeremy shares the building blocks of what he calls culinary literacy: understanding why a recipe works and empowering readers to cook with confidence every day. Recipes are designed to minimize single-use ingredients and equipment (for example, all baking recipes are no-mixer-required), encouraging versatility with easily available essentials and Jeremy’s favorite kitchen staples.

If the young gourmands on MasterChef Junior are anything to go by, lots of kids are eager to get into the kitchen. We talked to Danielle Acken (01:43:05 of episode) about the new book ‘Let’s Eat: Recipes for Kids Who Cook’ published by TouchWood Editions. Seasoned cookbook author Danielle Acken, food stylist Aurelia Louvet, and their six proteges (age 7 to 17) are here to help. Let’s Eat brings together kitchen basics, tools, terminology, and 60+ recipes with loads of variations to suit a range of tastes. You want to be the toast of town hosting a holiday gathering?

We talk to Lea Dixon (02:27:30 of episode), known online as ThePlatterGirl about her new book ‘Mostly Plant-Based Platters & Boards: Gorgeous Spreads for Clean Eating + Great Gatherings’ published by Castle Point Books. Treat yourself and others to an eye-catching, party-friendly array of mostly fruits, veggies, nuts, and grains—with a side of dips and cheeses. Whether you’re feeding just you, a cozy few, or a full house of family and friends, Mostly Plant-Based Platters & Boards features 60 delicious grazing designs and platter starters that are easy to put together and guaranteed to please.

La Catrina Mexican Restaurant – Collingswood, NJ

La Catrina Mexican Restaurant – Collingswood, NJ

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020 – 2023, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers from 2021-2023, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023, and nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022 and 2023 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment.

Many people around the Collingswood area were sad a few months ago to hear about the closing of The Tortilla Press which was around for over 20 years. Have no fear about where you should go for Taco Tuesday though as a little further down the road on Haddon Ave is La Catrina Mexican Restaurant and I think you will really enjoy a visit there. The service is as friendly as it gets feeling like you are welcome into their home and it’s no surprise as La Catrina is a fully family run operation with Jose Medina, Gloria Palillero, Geovanni Farfan-Perez, and Maria Palillero combining the many flavors of Mexico and bringing them to South Jersey. Maria is from Puebla, Geovanni is from Mexico City, and then mix over a decade of working in and around Philadelphia restaurants and you’ll find the perfect combination of authentic Mexican as well as a bit of American inspired meals and tastes here. The decor is lively and adds a nice flair to the ambiance. My meal was Cecina Tacos which is salty Mexican beef with sauteed onion and grilled cactus that was fantastic and an order of Al Pastor Tacos with the pork perfectly seasoned and pineapple complimenting the taco spot on. Really enjoyed my entire experience and will be back to try more of the menu.

Michael Corsetti got a following in the festival and event circuit with his fire roasted sweet corn. He opened a brick and mortar location with his corn being the name and adding a menu of bbq themed items. I had their Siracha honey wings, butter corn, spinach, baked beans, brisket Mac and cheese, whole rack of ribs, and corn bread. Prices were slightly below average which was a nice surprise with so many places being more than expected and the service was timely as they are take out only and had everything ready the exact time requested. Have you ever tried them? What are your favorite item or items?

Filipino food is a delightful culinary experience that brings together a unique blend of flavors, textures, and influences. You can expect rich and diverse flavors as they usually feature a combination of ingredients like garlic, onions, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, and coconut milk, creating a symphony of flavors. This is a tiny little restaurant, but huge in providing great food and dining experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I had the Seafood Family Platter of Fried Tilapia, Shrimps, Grilled Squid, Salted eggs, Rice, and mini flan with a few pork BBQ on a stick, and Sizzling Beef Steak Tagalog which was really good. Everything was great and would come back again. If you’ve never been you really should visit.

Franklinville Inn – Franklinville, NJ

Franklinville Inn – Franklinville, NJ

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020 – 2023, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers from 2021-2023, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023, and nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022 and 2023 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment.

The Franklinville Inn is a renowned restaurant known for its elegant and charming atmosphere, exceptional cuisine, and rich history. The inn has been serving customers since 1786, making it one of the oldest continuously operated restaurants in the United States. The restaurant is housed in a historic building that exudes rustic charm and has been carefully preserved to maintain its traditional appeal. The interior features exposed brick walls, wooden beams, and a cozy fireplace, creating a warm and inviting ambiance for guests. Service was top notch as was the food as well. I started out the crab bisque that was out of this world. This crab bisque is a luxurious and creamy soup that showcases the delicate and sweet flavors of crab meat with a smooth and velvety consistency allowing the flavors of the crab meat to shine. My entree was the queen cut prime rib. It was a perfectly cooked, rosy pink interior, with juices flowing and an enticing aroma filling the air. Each bite was tender, succulent, and full of robust beef flavor. The marbling of fat throughout the meat added richness and depth to every mouthful. It was great! This sides of sherry mushrooms which were a delicious and savory dish combining the earthy flavors of mushrooms with the distinct sweetness and nuttiness of sherry wine and mashed sweet potatoes with cinnamon sugar butter were perfect compliment to the meal. Highly recommend a meal here.

Cotardo’s Ristorante Italiano is a renowned small family owned Italian restaurant in South Jersey that has been delighting guests with its traditional Italian dishes for several decades. The restaurant’s interior is designed with a rustic Italian theme and soft lighting. The exceptional service created an unforgettable dining experience and the food was really good as well. The bread for the table was fantastic, the soup was delicious, and the chicken parmigiana with penne was delightfully cooked perfectly with a crisp exterior and juicy inside. I can see why so many have loved this place over the years.

This is an old fashioned Chinese style restaurant and they excelled at what they provided during my visit. The service was the highlight being extremely friendly and personable. No surprises here, so I went with the basics and ordered the chicken and broccoli combination with fried rice, egg roll, and wonton soup. It was better than your average variety and prices were reasonable. If you live around this area they are a good choice for the normal American variety of expected Chinese dishes you could be looking for.
