Yay my first food post! For those who do not know me, I am a foodie. I’m probably the skinniest fat girl you’ll ever meet. I love going to new restaurants especially establishments that are in my own back yard.  Yesterday I tried a new burger joint called Spot Gourmet Burgers. It’s not really new but it’s new to me.  Spot used to have a food truck in University City (near Drexel and University of Penn for the non Philly folks) Any who, they shut the truck down and opened an actual store.  Word on the street is that they have the burgers in Philadelphia.  I decided to see what all the fuss was about and although I didn’t have a burger (gasp!) I did have the most divine pork sandwich, The Drunken Pork Sandwich to be exact. (Yes I am a meat eater) Behold the glorious description below:

“Pork shoulder braised in beer, pulled, and slathered in Bourbon BBQ sauce with pickles and red onion”

  

They had me at slathered.  The pork was cooked to perfection, the sauce was sweet but not too sweet, just right.  Oh yeah and I got an order of the double fried cheese fries. (Don’t you dare judge me)  For those who don’t eat meat or are on a diet, fret not. They have veggie options.  The restaurant is located in the up and coming Brewerytown section of Philadelphia near the Philadelphia Zoo and the Philadelphia Museum of Art (It’s just north Philly to me)  and you can eat in or take out.  There’s no delivery which if I can be completely honest, is a good thing.  I hope they are successful as I have seen a couple of businesses in the area with promising starts go belly up.  Next time I go, I’m going to try the rib eye cheesesteak. Yup, that just happened.
