Exploring German-style Mexican Cuisine at Kombüse
It's not really like anything you'd get in South Philly or Southern California, but still not bad for being pretty damn far away from Mexico.

Tutti Frutti just opened in Philadelphia at the corner of Juniper & Walnut, where a Bonté used to be (across from Naked Chocolate).
Benedikt and I ducked in there on Friday to escape the heat and to see if it was anything special in the rapidly expanding microcosm of Philly froyo.
It's self-serve with maybe 10 flavors, including blueberry, peanut, acai berry, and cake. You can add lots of your own toppings, from fruit to nuts to gummi bears. You pay by the ounce at the end, pretty reasonably priced.
The frozen yogurt was cold and of a good consistency, the fruit toppings were fresh. It wasn't awesome but it was definitely good.
No pictures of the sushi, but it was really good too. I'm spoiled to have such culinarily-gifted friends!
I feel full just looking at the pictures. We picked up burgers (and fries, sometimes) from
500 Degrees (linking to their Twitter account since they don't seem to have a website...)

Despite this being planned for months, I forgot and had already agreed to go to a seder earlier this night. The seder was awesome (my first!) but I was so full from all the great food that I couldn't eat anything at Pod.
It was great to see Poliana again, and to finally meet Jen, Severin, and their friend Mike.
