Tonalli

We’re back, baby! Nachojawn has risen from the dead with a newish review of the nachos at Tonalli, on South Front Street, in the spot formerly occupied by Musi. Candidly, I didn’t love the queso fresco on these, a little too funky for my tastes. Stick with the Mexican style pizzas and BYOT for a fun night out.

3.65/5 pickled jalapeños – if anyone knows how to recover hacked Instagram accounts let me know. Otherwise all previous content on Nachojawn’s insta has been nuked.

When I first ate at Tamarindo’s more than a decade ago, it was located in a strip mall in the Blue Bell area. A somewhat recent move to a stand-alone location in Flourtown has added a large patio to the mix.

Tamarindo’s also offers complimentary margaritas – I’ve consumed my fair share but quality wise you get what you pay for.

These nachos, with pickled onion, salsa verde, and pulled pork were slightly overdone which dried the meet out and overcharred some of the chips. Good effort and ideas, not as strong in the execution, including undercheesing.

3.31/5 pickled jalapeños – Tamarindo’s has been around for almost two decades because they make good food. Just make sure the nachos come out of the broiler on time.

Circles and Squares

 

Circles + Squares is on a residential Kensington block , with only a few tables on the sidewalk outside. Whole pies only – their claim to fame is the Detroit style square pie.

The Detroit pie, with crispy cheese around the edges is the standout here.
