A Full Plate Cafe in Northern Liberties is hosting a Rib Cook-Off event on this Saturday, October 13th.
If you want to show off your mad grilling skills, pay $50 and receive 4 racks of ribs to grill outside the cafe. Prizes include cash, baked goods and of course the undying admiration of your peers.
If doing the grilling isn’t your thing you can still enjoy the day by sampling all those ribs. For $10 you can enjoy the fruits (well ribs) of the grillers labor as well as a buffet of side dishes provided by A Full Plate Cafe.
Grilling starts at 9am, the eating at 3pm and the judging at 4.

Living On The Vedge takes a look at a couple vegetarian brunch options at A Full Plate Cafe and Black N Brew. Not that you need to be a vegetarian to enjoy Cocoa Puffs French toast!

Foodzings has a relaxing Sunday in Northern Liberties sitting outside at
A Full Plate Cafe, ordering the Waffle Wish and chicken salad sandwich.
The service was good, the food was even better. Definitely worth all the recommendations I’d read.

Kirsten Henri visits A Full Plate in Northern Liberties hoping the food can match the charming decor.
The bright green and purple walls invite. The hand painted tables and hanging pots and pans have you excited by the prospects. But in the end, “A Full Plate, so promising to look at, disappointed when it came to the food.”
Brunch was the most enjoyable, the eggs benedict “reconfigured with spicy panko-encrusted fried green tomatoes standing in for the English muffin and mozzarella cheese tucked under the eggs and hollandaise.” Three croisants, each stuffed with a different ingredients was also above par.
But too few of the other dishes were more than mediocre.
You leave wanting to love A Full Plate, and it does have potential, and the decor is already there.
