Munish Narula's revolutionary web-based food delivery service, Tiffin, has grown like a panda-less bamboo grove since it opened in 2006, adding a second location in Mt. Airy and the area's first Desi pizzeria, Tiffin Etc., next door to the original Tiffin on Girard Avenue.� Now the suburbs will have a chance to develop their palates when Tiffin locations touch down in Elkins Park (October), Wynnewood (December), Bryn Mawr (spring 2010) and maybe even Bensalem.

One of those fun things is Tiffin And A Movie, a pilot project that allows Northern Liberties residents to order a Bollywood film to be delivered with their Tiffin meal. One movie runs $3.50, including a postage-paid envelope to mail the DVD back to Tiffin.
