Alison at Blue Bell
Best of Philly 2004 New Restaurant, Suburbs
Owner Alison Barshak is rocking the suburbs with her exuberant cooking. The gingered fried squid rings and chili-dusted skate that put Barshak's globally influenced BYOB on the map now share the spotlight with seasonally appropriate specials like shrimp salad with watermelon, feta and mint, and soft-shell crabs with Thai basil and lemongrass-corn sauce. Amelia Dietrich's desserts continue to amaze and amuse: Her cinnamon bun ice-cream sandwich has the staff pining for leftovers. Outdoor dining has been added.
