Is It Always Sunny at Mac’s?
This week Adam Erace visits Mac’s Tavern, the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia associated bar in Old City. He checks out what Michael Suminski, former Ortlieb’s chef is whipping up and finds food for when you’ve skipped breakfast or been drinking all night.
French fries? Yes. Regular and sweet potato. Thick and thin. Five kinds flooded with brown gravy. In the “Pot Pie” version, peas twinkled, a farce of health among the thicket of steak-cut fries piled with grilled chicken. “Mac’s House” gravy fries sagged beneath the weight of red wine vinegar-braised short rib, horseradish and provolone, like the sloppy cousin of Village Whiskey’s duck-fat fries who always gets wrecked at holiday dinners. Fish tacos were proper fresh, crisp tempura fingers of tilapia in corn tortilla cradles, and the buffalo shrimp weren’t bad, either, though not as spicy as their “WTF” sauce suggested.
