This week: Eating Ethnic on 11th and Pine
PERFECT PAELLA Mixto 1141 Pine Street (215) 592-0363 Why?
Simple, spicy down-home Cuban and Colombian cuisine, Spanish-speaking waiters and piles of beans and rice on the side of every dish.
BEST BAKLAVA Effie's 1127 Pine Street (215) 592-8333
Why?
Basic but satisfying Greek BYO. Try the souvlaki on pita with peppers, or be brave and go for the grilled octopus.
GREAT GRINDERS Pine Street Pizza 1138 Pine Street (215) 922-2526 Why?
The cheapest eats on Antique Row: juicy burgers, greasy pizzas, and meaty hoagies -- Philly fast food at its best.
