Marigold Kitchen

No formal review for Marigold, as it was Valentine's day and I took the night off from snapping pictures and being "that guy" at dinner.  The meal was outstanding though, and can't say enough good things about this cozy little neighborhood BYO in West Philly. The service was attentive and informed. The 10 course prix fixe menu was executed without a miss and each little dish was inventive and delicious. I had the escargot & squab for appetizer and main, and she chose the beet/goat cheese salad and seared scallops. Profiteroles & cayenne creme brulee for desert. Everything was beautiful. Actually a shame there are no pics to share.  Maybe next time when it's not a special occasion. Do yourself, and your date, the favor and trek out to this great BYO. Easily accessable from the route 13 & 34 trolleys - just get off at 45th street and walk the block or two up to Larchwood.
