the twisted tail

i was invited to the 3rd annual dog days of summer cook-off presented by south street headhouse district in conjunction with hot diggity held on july 19, 2014, 1-4pm, under the headhouse square shambles (2nd/pine). twenty of the region’s top restaurants and chefs went grill-to-grill in the ultimate hot dog competition. there were 20 different hot dogs with tasty inventive toppings. getting around to all 20 would have been ambitious, even eating half dogs, but i did taste a respectable 10, which i have given tine ratings - * excellent - 4 tines * great - 3 tines * good - 2 tines * fair - 1 tine * poor - tarnished , and placed in order of my least favorite to my most favorite. along with pictures of the actual 1st & 2ndplacewinning restaurants with their big checks! #1  the twisted tail  - house made pork dogs, brisket & short rib chili.  sounded like a winner, but i felt it was under cooked and a bit too gamy -  1 tine twisted tail chili dog #2  rex  - i gave extra marks for anyone us

best bourbon selection around!. saturday night on south street and we were surprised thisplacewas not packed! once the world finds out about this little treasure, we'll be fighting for a table. the four of us each started off with a different bourbon, so we could taste the broadest range of bourbons. there selection is the best around including bourbons you can't usually find around philadelphia. we started off with the mussels appetizer which was flavorful and cooked well. we continued with an order of the chef's special chicken shank, two pork belly entrees, and the beef cheeks. everything was so delicious that we shared all our plates! we had another round of bourbon and even tried the fudge brownie (super rich!) and shortcake desserts! our service was great and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. we will be back!

george has gotten everyone fooled. he has been going around acting as if he is the wonder creator who has fixed up his dump restaurant into a somewhat recentplaceto dine. it is sad enough to say that is not even close to the case. what really is going on is that has has been taking everyones credit as his own to make himself famous.
george is so busy trying to get his one second flame and glory that he doesn't even care who he stomps on. what a pathetic loser. this is so sad.

jury is out. tried thisplaceon friday before 4th of july holiday. heatwave must have kept folks at home because thisplacewas deserted. the food was very good and really enjoyed the music. only complaint was that the server was very detached and indifferent. acted sort of like we were a nuisance. this was disappointing especially since there were so few other customers there. not sure if the good food will over-ride the substandard service.
