I'm in Philadelphia for four days, attending the Human Behavior and Evolution Society conference. Tonight my colleagues and I had dinner at Monk's Cafe. We had to wait 40 minutes for a table large enough for the eight of us. This was not a problem given that we could drink Belgian beer while we were waiting. I had Chimay Cinq on tap.
For dinner I had their Roasted Chicken. Here's the description:
half of a locally raised chicken, rubbed with herbs de provençe & scented with a slice of orange. served with vegetable and our suffing made with chicken & apple sausage
This might have been the most delicious chicken meal I have ever had in my life.
Good food, good beer, and stimulating conversation about evolutionary psychology and literature. Does it get any better than this?

I've been reading your papers, by the way. Not very quickly, since reading the computer screen is much harder for me than reading hard copy. Still, wanted to let you know I've been enjoying it.
I know, us Wisconsinites are crazy...
Try getting to Eulogy, over in Old City, it's around abouts 2nd and Chestnut. Last time I was there they had Samichlaus on tap. I can't vouch for the food, 'cause I've only ever had beer there, but it's definitely another good beer place.
So's Tria, but that's in Center City right near Rittenhouse Square. It's more of a snack place, with cheese and olives and whatnot, I guess you could eat a meal there (they had sandwiches) but it's more of a place to kill some time at while you're waiting for someone or something.
