IN PRINT: City Paper Food and Restaurants, September 29

- It's a mellow hello at the new Sawatdee, which critic Adam Erace believes is too comfortable in its neighborhood-Thai-BYO role to branch out and take risks with bold flavors and dishes.

- When you think fried chicken, you don't necessarily think about Pakistan. But West Philly's Wah-Gi-Wah can easily help you out on that front with its sick rendition of Lahori Chargha, deep-fried bird with South Asian spices.

- In What's Cooking: a local not named Jose Garces battling on Iron Chef America, a 13th Street food/booze fest, one pumpkin extravaganza to rule them all and more.

- In Icepack: A.D. Amorosi chats with Jennifer Carroll, who's stepping away from her gig at 10 Arts next week. He also has early notes on Arts Bar, developing in the Wolf Building.

- In Agenda: Word on this weekend's RiverCity Festival, which will feature grub from Bubba's BBQ and Hinge Café, plus a volleyball tournament that will pit local bar staffs against one another.
