Philadelphia’s "City Tap House"

Philadelphia’s City Tap House

University City, Walnut St.

　

Today, I just got a new roommate and, I was itching to get out and do something, To do a little taste bud exploration … We set out looking for another Restaurant, but failed to find it. I set back a bit and visited once again a place that I find inviting and unique, to the sports Bar setting…It is called The City Tap Room off of Walnut St. in University City in Philly.40^th and Walnut. Next to Bobbies Burger paradise. You walk in and, the restaurant comes alive to your senses. To the left there is a garden patio that over looks the city. The Bar is about 150ft round. There is an open kitchen to gaze at the Chef’s doing there Chefie thing.. Very Cool.. I am not a big drinker But, I do love to have a good beer that accompanies my meal with some great friends. They have a selection of beers that are brewed right here in Philadelphia.. There are so many style’s and, the names of them sometimes cracks me up… (like Victory Monkey Beer) LOL …

I went this time with my new roommate and was handed the new menu.. They made a few changes. And as far as I can see, they did a great job at it.. I choose a Rib-eye steak on a soft French Baguette rolls. The Steak was sliced nice and thin to enhance the flavor more... It had fine sliced fried onion strings, a fondue Cheese sauce with bourbon and I choose to have the Sweet Potato Fries with a honey mustard bourbon sauce… I coupled that up with a local beer that had a hint of honey/Cherry and a soft amber taste… Outstanding.. This is the second time I have been here and, they have always made my 5 senses come alive and look outside the culinary box.

Smell, Sight, Taste, hearing….LOVE (-:

The staff is always extremely informational and loving.. Is there a better place to go where you find great food, Friends and Game’s to watch on several Big Screen TV’s around the Restaurant. ?! If so let me know, and I will travel there.. The next time I go, I am going to be kicking it… out on the Garden patio…That would be a great spot to have a gathering of Friends and a Family reunion..

Just a note; I did find the original Restaurant I wanted to go. I will tell you about that soon... (-:

Now, Until we meet again~~ Many journey's into the Love, Style and Taste of food around you...
God Bless
