As is customary at Philly Lunch, every Tuesday we turn over the site to a different lunch’er for his or her recommendations for the best lunch in Philadelphia. This week, it’s Rachel- this lucky lady gets to play with chocolate all day. And she knows all about the Bellevue Food Court.
Name: Rachel
Age: 27
Occupation: Owner of Teuscher Chocolates of Switzerland (Philadelphia)
Where in Philly do you Work?: The Bellevue in Center City
Favorite Kind of Food: Chocolate. As far as cuisines go, it’s very hard to say, I can eat anything at any time. Sushi is up there because of how tasty, filling, and light it is. I love when sushi chefs come up with combinations that I’d never dream up and being able to make every bite as spicy as I want is awesome. I’m also a big fan of Indian food.
Least Favorite Kind of Food: Again, hard to say. I guess the cuisine I suggest the least (but still eat semi frequently) would be Mexican. I can always go for guacamole or fish tacos, but that’s about it, I have to be in the mood for Mexican to really enjoy it. I stay far away from cilantro, anise, and foie gras.
Favorite Place(s) to Eat Lunch in Philly: I eat at Ellen’s in The Bellevue Food Court a lot and get the chicken ellen sandwich. Anastasia’s Seafood (new location in The Bellevue food court) has the best shrimp cocktail around. And I also like Maoz (1115 Walnut St) – their falafel and eggplant are good on the salads and the salad toppings are awesome! For a sitdown lunch, Caribou Cafe (1126 Walnut St) is my favorite spot, can’t go wrong with any dish.
