Ten kinds of food and the best places in Philadelphia to order each one from tonight, at home or in your hotel room. Start with Pizzeria Beddia for pizza, Royal Sushi & Izakaya for sushi, Han Dynasty (Old City) for Chinese food. Every pick says what to get and how to order it.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: A plain or specialty pie, whatever the weekly menu has
Thin, deeply browned pies hold their crunch in a box for the short ride home. Ordering through Toast goes straight to the shop.
Good to know: Some beer and wine pickups are pickup only. Check the Toast page for current hours.
No. 1
Get: Chirashi, karaage wings, the fried chicken thigh sando
The Inquirer notes a delivery menu that goes well beyond nigiri, and chirashi bowls and cooked items ride well.
Good to know: Order the cooked items alongside the raw fish so some of the meal keeps.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: Dan dan noodles and other Sichuan dishes
Noodles and dry-fried dishes pack well, and the Old City shop lists delivery and pickup.
Good to know: Reviews on the dan dan are mixed. Pick the heat one notch below what you think you can handle.
No. 1
Get: Southern Thai curries and the crab fried rice
Curries and rice pack well, and Kalaya is one of the city's best-reviewed Thai kitchens.
Good to know: Call (215) 385-3777 to order.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: Salmon tikka masala and naan
Reviewers praise big portions, and saucy curries with rice pack easily.
No. 1
Get: Cemitas stuffed with milanesa or al pastor, tacos, guacamole.
The Fishtown branch is outdoor-seating only, so most of the business is takeout. The sesame-roll cemitas hold up well in a bag.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: Chicken parmesan with spaghetti, garlic bread, antipasti.
Red-sauce plates built around baked, breaded and saucy dishes that reheat well. Takeout has its own section on the Toast menu.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: The Huda burger on a house-baked milk bun, curly fries; upgrade with caramelized onions and special sauce.
A small shop where much of the business is takeout. The smashed patty sits on a sturdy seeded milk bun that survives the trip.
Good to know: Pick up soon after it is ready; the fries are best hot.
No. 1A photo like it
Get: Fried chicken tenders (single or double order), whole pieces.
Thick, crunchy crust that stays crisp in the box. Order ahead on Toast because it closes for the day when the chicken sells out.
Good to know: It sells out, so order online before you go.
No. 1
Get: Hummus tehina with pita, schnitzel, za'atar-roasted chicken.
Warm hummus and pita pack well and need no reheating. It is a repeat pick on the city's hummus lists.
Good to know: Phone (215) 867-8181.
