Tuesday

Posted by Sam Bloch on May 21st, 2013

Bad News: Lobster Mania at Chick’s Social Kitchen and Bar is coming to an end in two weeks.

Good News: For the final two Tuesdays and Wednesdays in May, Chick’s will be serving up a one-pound lobster with clams, mussels, and potatoes for only $18.

We hazard to guess there won’t be a better lobster deal this season, so get it while it lasts.

Tuesday is All-You-Can-Eat Snow Crabs at the Field House

Posted by Alex Tewfik on March 26th, 2013

field-house-philly

Snow crabs tend to be weirdly addicting. You crack one open, suck it down, and sooner or later you’re ten deep, you’re covered in crab carcasses, and you have no idea what year it is.

At least that’s been the constant on my end…

The Convention Center’s recently renovated sports bar/beer hall, Field House, is now offering snow crabs every Tuesday, all you can eat of them. For $25, chef Andrew Brown (previously of White Dog and Opa) will serve you an endless supply of snow crab, fries, and drawn butter. They’re an easy pair with  local crafts too, so grab a long table, throw down some beers, and gluttonize in snow crabs forever.
