Missed the Bus...



Le Bus
129 South 18th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19103

My fiancé and I were running around in the city one afternoon when we needed to stop and get something to eat. We decided to stop into Le Bus' store in the Rittenhouse area and grab something to share. I had experienced their bread before on various sandwiches, but I had never bought anything directly from their store.

I love the bread from Le Bus. It is really fantastic. I hadnt ever really been inside, but I had seen the bread at other restaurants before. We grabbed a container of the beef and barley soup and we split the curry chicken salad sandwich.



The soup was very tasty. It was a nice, hearty meal on a cold winter's day, exactly the thing you need to warm you up. The sandwich on the other hand didn't really work for me. I love the idea of it being a sweet/salty contrast with the raisin bread, but the chicken salad itself was overly sweet. The curry was a nice touch, but it would have been made existentially better by some salt or acid, or both. 



One and a half pints for Le Bus  It is definitely good for a quick bite, but there isn't much seating in the back to sit down and enjoy your lunch. Definitely better for takeout than for eating in. The sandwich we had was really not very good, but the soup was tasty. There is better places around the area for lunch, so give one of them a try instead. Grab some bread to go for sure. Cheers!
