Thai Singha House To Go, an offshoot of West Philly's long-running Thai Singha House (3939 Chestnut St.), has opened on 20th between Chestnut and Sansom in the former Gianna Jr's (106 S. 20th St., 215-568-2390). They're gunning for the lunchtime Rittenhouse crowd (watch y'all backs, Pad Thai Shack) with budget-priced soups, apps and noodle dishes. (Check out the full menu below.) They deliver from 4 to 9:15 p.m. Hours: Mon.-Fri., 11 a.m.-9:30 p.m.; Sat., 4-9:30 p.m.; closed Sun.
One fun thing of note: In the window, they display a framed City Paper review of their original restaurant, penned by our classical music guy Peter Burwasser. I couldn't find the piece online, but click on the photo for a larger version.

there is something that looks like chicken but chews like tree bark in their chicken coconut soup... anybody know what it is? i just spit it out onto the concrete of rittenhouse park and kept eating.
It was most likely galangal, a cousin of the ginger root, which is used in chicken coconut soup. It is meant to impart flavor and not meant to be eaten.
