Phillymag recently asked my wife where to find the healthiest food and other things in University City. It’s a shame they didn’t ask me, because I’ve got the real inside scoop. Fear not – I will now happily share “The barre bro’s guide to University City food” –
Abner’s Cheesesteaks – it’s important to get ample protein, and Abner has been dishing up protein bombs for decades!
Zesto Pizza and Grill – hell yeah!
Terakawa Ramen (she got this one right) – best addition to the U-City food scene since Magic Carpet in the 80s!
Pitruco Pizza (the truck, not in Franklin Table) – amazing, soft, pillowy crust.
Federal Donuts (the chicken not the donuts)
Dos Hermanos food truck – tacos and burritos for days
McDonald’s – don’t sleep on this classic!
