Little Baby’s Ice Cream (Pint: $8.00)
4903 Catharine St.
(215) 921–2100
Leave it to Little Baby’s to take two totally incongruous flavors and combine them into a surprisingly cohesive and delicious treat. Even though it’s vegan, this ice cream is still sweet and creamy, with a strong Earl Grey flavor and a kick of spice at the end. Best of all, you can find it on campus at Houston or the market under Commons.
Firebird Chicken Sriracha Burger ($13.00)
P.Y.T.
1050 N Hancock St.
(215) 964–9009
This NoLibs burger joint/night club serves “America’s craaaziest burgers,” like the Firebird Chicken Sriracha. This chili–and–Sriracha–marinated patty is topped with pepper jack, ranch and a heaping pile of onion rings. It even gets its own spice warning on the menu, so come prepared, or wash it down with one of their delectable spiked milkshakes ($10-$13).
Cheese Curds ($8.00) with Sriracha Aioli ($0.50)
The Cow and the Curd Food Truck
33rd and Arch St.
(215) 527–3466
One of the newest trucks to hit the Philly food scene is serving up a Wisconsin classic: cheese curds. And there’s nothing better than fried cheese...unless you pair it with Sriracha. Order the cheddar cheese curds with Sriracha aioli on the side. The mellow flavor of the cheese perfectly cuts the spice of the Sriracha, making for a delicious snack right near campus—catch them at 33rd and Arch.
