Smile Cafe @ 105 S 22nd St

It's been a while since I posted something to my blog. I have been trying several new restaurants, but just did not have time to post them here. I am finally getting to one of the best restaurants I have been to since my last post.

Smile Cafe located at 105 S 22nd St, Philadelphia is a Thai Restaurant near Rittenhouse square region of Center City. True to it's name my last visit with few of my colleagues brought smiles to all of us. Since it's been more than a month, I will skip many details that I normally post in my blogs like the details of the food I had etc. Please find some pictures of the food we had below. I think I had Orange Chicken which is the first of the pictures below.



The best part is the price. The restaurant offers a daily lunch special 'Choice of Two: Soup of The Day, Spring Roll, Salad (White Creamy Dressing), Steamed Dumplings' with an entree included and all this for $7.95. Needless to say all of us chose the lunch specials and none of us regretted the decision.

The menu offers several options but not so big as to overwhelm you. You can find the menu here. The service was excellent. Though this was my first time, I am positive that this will not be my last time. I recommend this recommend this restaurant very highly to one and all.

Thai Chef and Noodles @ 2028 Chestnut St

It's been a while since my first visit and hopefully not the last visit to Thai Chef and Noodles located at 2028 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19103. My memory is a little rusty as I have been there about a month and half ago. I discovered the place on my daily strolls around the city. The selling point was the promotion on their doors about the free appetizer and soup with an entree for lunch only.

Here are some pictures from the food my friends and I had.





I wasn't very much satisfied with what I had. But the thing about going with a group and close friends is that you could share the food. So I tasted some of the appetizers and they were good. I should have gone more conservative and ordered something like a pad thai as it was my first time. Instead I ordered something that I did not know and was let down. The service was great, the lunch promotion was great selling point and I am definitely going back to try their regular fare with their tasty appetizers.

I will be making updates to this post soon with the detials of the soups, appetizers and entrees my friends and I had on our visit later. I wanted to do a quick post so I dont lose track of it.
