PHILLY HO Meetup at the SEA Market on SEPT 8 [Philadelphia]

We too had a lovely afternoon. My favorites were the roti, the grilled sausage that exploded (not pictured) and the noodles once the accompanying sauces were dumped on top.

I look forward to future rendezvouses. It was especially nice to put faces to the names I read all the time @linguafood, @tcamp, @Bigley9

I think the exploded sausage was this although sign at the booth spelled it a bit differently. I wish I’d bought a package of that although the one I did buy was good too. The non-exploded one…

I also liked the massaman curry and roti as well as the som tum. Actually, everything was great and the variety much appreciated. Thanks to Lingua for organizing us and everyone else for coming!

I’m planning to have the remaining two lemongrass sausages for lunch :slight_smile:

And I will pick up more of those and the exploding kind next chance I get. So good!

Next time you go, could you snap a pic of the sign for those sausages so I can get the name right to search locally?

What do you guys mean with ‘exploding sausage’?? :thinking:

I don’t think we got a picture of them, but they were a fiery red, and seemed to pop open on the charcoal grill (?), but maybe @tcamp has a better explanation?

What she said. Burst on the grill.

They were flavorful but not super spicy.

It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed meeting folks in person! Had some of the leftover papaya salad today and as expected the heat continues to grow!

@Bigley9 @MsBean @tomt @tcamp (hope I’m not forgetting anyone).

We’re thinking of another visit to the market this coming Sunday. If any of you would like to join us, DM me :slight_smile:

It would likely be around the same time as our last gathering.

Of course! The market runs through Oct 27. I can’t make that one, as I am hosting a potluck back in my hometown that Sunday, but I’m around for the rest of September & early October weekends.

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately we won’t be able to make,. I expect to be hungover from a wedding Saturday night.

My foster dog has a meet and greet with a potential adopter tomorrow so I can’t join you.

That’s ok, we may well skip this week, being that we’re still inundated with sausages.
