Ever since we announced the Philly Nacho Crawl, people have been freaking out. While the response has been overwhelming, it should come as no surprise. We all know Philly doesn’t do anything half-assed, especially when it comes to delicious nachos. So far, over 40 nacho lovers have RSVP’d to Lee@NachosNY.com to join in the party. The Philly blogosphere has been good to us as well. See what they had to say below:
“Lee Frank may be a New York food blogger — he runs the all-nachos siteNachosNY — but having grown up here in Philly, he still reps hard. So when Frank comes home next week for Thanksgiving, he’ll be mixing his wonderful past with his dizzying present for what is, as best we know, the first-ever Nacho Crawl Philadelphia. And after the long civic trauma that was the Snuggie Crawl, we’re inclined to go with him. After all, we should let the healing begin. And nothing is better for healing than… nachos. Well, weed is good, too, but hey: Nachos.”
“NachosNY.com is just what it sounds like, a nacho site out of New York. They review nachos and offer “Chos Before Hoes” t-shirts. Lee Frank who runs the site is originally from Philadelphia and is going to be hosting a “curated” nacho crawl here on Saturday, November 28th. $10 will get you nachos at the Royal Tavern, La Lupe and Cantina Los Caballitos.”
“I have to say that I am pretty happy with my life when I get an email from a stranger telling me about at nacho crawl they are planning. Uh yes please and I am so there! Have I mentioned I love nachos? At this point I guess I am coming off as that girl who loves everything but I guess I kind of do. Especially when it is smothered in cheese and guacamole.”
“Spend your Sat afternoon in South Philly, where this $10 mini-tour lets you go to town on nachos at Royal Tavern, La Lupe (both chicken & beef), and Cantina los Caballitos (chorizo), plus gets you Crawl-specific drink specials at the first two and Crawl-provided Tecate at Lupe, all under the trusted direction of Lee Frank, the founder of the blog NachosNY and a die-hard aficianacho.”
Thanks guys! The check is in the mail.
“It’s nearly time to sit down and tuck into a big helping of delicious tryptophan with a side of family tension. In other words, Thanksgiving dinner! What will you do after the turkey trauma and family drama has passed? Grub Street will be taking a four-day snooze, but we leave you with this useful jumble of drink specials, food truck sighting and nacho crawling to help get you through the long weekend. We’ll see you back here Monday morning. Read on for details.”
