Food Carts and Philly

I used to love the variety of restaurants in Seattle - you could get anything from Middle-Eastern to Italian for a fairly reasonable cost (considering how expensive Seattle is). While I haven't been to a lot of restaurants in Philly, my afternoon morsel on weekdays comes from a wide variety of places. At the top of the list would be (surprise!) a vegetarian food cart, called Magic Carpet. Their falafel tops their list, and their Friday special - the veggie "burger" is pretty amazing. They also have, among other things, a very variety choice of wraps. Going to any single place everyday, however, can get monotonous faster than you can say "timbuktoo", so I generally throw in an occasional sub (or Chicken Caesar Flatbread Salad... yum!) from Quiznos, maybe a chinese fried rice ($3) or a burrito or chicken tikka masala from a food cart of the respective culture. Its a pretty unique and fun way of obtaining lunch! :)
