All Mac-and-Cheese, All the Time
Here's a restaurant only the recession could create. Swallow Bistro opened a couple years back in Philadelphia's up-and-coming trendy neighborhood, Northern Liberties. But when the economy tanked last fall, the bistro's $15 entrees got a little hard for Philly diners to swallow, and the restaurant made a recession-era decision: they went all mac-and-cheese, all the time.
Yep, Swallow Bistro now exclusively serves this comfort food classic, made with your choice of cheeses, from good ol' American to foodie-r choices like gorgonzola or goat cheese, and topped with some pretty oddball options, like gyro meat, shrimp, and peas.
Some of that sounds a little kooky for us, but we could go for a bacon spinach and garlic plate, stat. Fortunately, you can design your own mac. Cheez fanatics can pair it with a side of nacho cheddar cheese fries, and if you're still craving comfort, there's brownie a la mode for dessert.
