My second stop of Center City Sips resulting in a visitation to Square Peg.  This place had been mentioned a few times so I finally agreed to go there after our initial stop at Opa.  The main perk of Square Peg is that their sips special continues until 8pm instead of 7pm.  One can't really complain about 3 dollar beers until 8pm especially when the sips special beers are a) Philadelphia Brewing Company's Philly Pale Ale and b) Troegs Sunshine Pilsner.  It was a solid second sips stop.

I had heard good things about the food there so we sampled their sips appetizers.
a) Mahi Mahi Taco
b) Pulled Pork Slider
c) Chicken Enchilada.

The Mahi Mahi was delicious but for 5 dollars the portion size left a little to be desired.  That was the unanimous feeling across the board.

The Pulled Pork Slider was the better deal at 4 dollars.  The pork was strongly seasoned and flavorful.  It hit the spot nicely.

Lastly, there was the chicken enchilada.  A review from one of my possibly slightly inebriated sips companion suggested: ".. It's ok.  It's kinda like a hot pocket.  The guacamole is good though."  With that raving review, I was glad i passed on the most expensive item on the sips appetizer list at six dollars.

If you need a second stop for sips I still would strongly recommend Square Peg as it was not crowded and they have an additional hour of specials.  Seating is adequate and good for a large group.
