Visited Middle Child and Habitat Cafe in Philadelphia
š„Ŗ Middle Child š 248 S 11th St, Philadelphia, PA 19107 Thereās also a location in Fishtown. š³ Taste Experience: I ordered The Hershel, one of their breakfast sandwiches. The difference between The Hershel and the basic version is that The Hershel includes corned beef but no arugula. The bread is rye, while the basic version uses potato bread. The price is $13.50 for The Hershel and $10.50 for the basic one. Both come with thick-cut eggs and cheese. I asked the staff if I could add arugula, and they said yes, with no extra charge. I chose The Hershel because many people recommended the corned beef, but personally, I found it average. It wasnāt very flavorful and was slightly salty. The thick-cut eggs were lightly seasoned, so overall, it was a balanced sandwich. The eggs and cheese were very satisfying, and the arugula added a nice, peppery aroma. I think next time I might try the basic version with added avocado. Adding avocado would cost an extra $3, making it the same price as The Hershel, but I feel like it would be more satisfying. The bread was a bit greasy, as it was pan-fried, and I couldnāt really taste the bread itself. The shop also offers some condiments. I added some Mexican chili sauce, which was thin and had a mild, tangy flavor. It didnāt really enhance the overall taste. The shop provides free water, which you can help yourself to. šŖ Store Environment: The shop is small with limited seating. The decor is American vintage green, which I really like. It even matched my outfit for the day! #Philadelphia #PhiladelphiaFood #ExploringRestaurants #PhDJournal
