There was talk last month about maybe trying out some new/different restaurants each month. Anyone still in for this?

suzukibeane · **Posted:** Thu Jan 06, 2011 5:41 pm

I'd be in! I was just thinking it was getting to be about time for another Philly meetup.

Dynahmite · **Posted:** Thu Jan 06, 2011 11:18 pm

Where would you like to go?

One thing that comes to mind is a New Harmony Sunday dinner buffet.

Weekends are definitely best for me, but I could do weeknights if necessary. And I have barely explored the veggie food in this city, so I'm in for most places.

That sounds fun! I could totally hop the train into the city for something like this!

hmm anything in west philly, sazon's still on my agenda, ekta, blue sage, im sure im missing plenty.

For west philly, I suggest the following:

Vientienne
Sitar (i bet if we call a day ahead and say there will be a bunch of vegans coming, they will make all their veg buffet items dairy free)
Fuwah hoagies, just wont be anywhere to eat them and its cold
Abyssinia
Local44, nothing that special about it though.

Any other west phillyites have a suggestion?

One place i've been meaning to try is cantina dos segundos. I've been to the s.philly spot before, never to the nolibs one. I'd like too see what the hype is about.

suzukibeane · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 12:35 pm

I would be especially game for this if it is in West Philly! I am rather lazy about crossing the river.

Any Ethiopian would be excellent. I mostly go to Abyssinia and I've been to Dahlak once, so I would like to try the other three on Baltimore, but Abyssinia is always delicious too.

Ed's has vegan pizza with daiya, but not much else. And amandabear said there's another place that has daiya pizza.

Yeah I need a reason to get to West Philly! But I also haven't been to Dos Segundos.

Eric. · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 1:11 pm

Ive still never had Ethiopian food yet… so id be into that.
Never heard of Vientienne.
We live right by Dos Segundos, so we can always meet up there as well.

Suzuki - Abysinnia is the best as far as Ethiopian goes. ALL my west philly friends advise me against Dahlak due to serious health code violations. I was curious though and sacrificed the mice/roach sightings and asked my bf to come with me for dinner once. The food was really good, but I wouldn't go back any time soon.

since there is a general agreement thus far on west philly/ethiopian food, can we all agree on abysinnia? I'm all about it since I live a block away haha.

I guess the question is, when is good for everybody? Somebody wanna take a stab at coming up with possible dates?

Eric. · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 1:55 pm

im in for that. im pretty open as long as its not until before ~5:30pm weeknights.

then next month (or sooner) switch the neighborhood, northern liberties if you all want to go to Dos Segundos.

suzukibeane · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 2:25 pm

I am definitely in for Abysinnia since it's 2 blocks from me! Just not this Friday, because I'll be in New York.

I like that idea! I have been to Abyssinia and I wasn't thrilled but I think that's only due to my not liking injera. I wish I could get naan there :)

Me too!

Eric. · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 2:53 pm

xstartxtodayx · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 2:58 pm

I'm open to any day this month except the 20th, 22nd and 23rd. How about the 19th at 7pm?

luftpost · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 3:31 pm

I'm game! I really want to try Ethiopian food!

suzukibeane · **Posted:** Mon Jan 10, 2011 3:54 pm

Eric. · **Posted:** Tue Jan 11, 2011 9:55 am

So Wednesday the 19th at 7pm?

Does that work with people?

Biodancer · **Posted:** Tue Jan 11, 2011 5:48 pm

I think I might be able to do that too.

RandiJM · **Posted:** Tue Jan 11, 2011 8:45 pm
