Down in Old City, on the corner of 2nd and Market, sits a quaint ice cream shop that will transport you to a much simpler time. Customers frequent The Franklin Fountain for a taste of their homemade ice cream, sundaes, shakes, and old-fashioned sodas. Lines during the summer are out the door, around the corner, andContinue reading “The Franklin Fountain”

Pumpkin is everything you could want from an upscale BYOB restaurant – the food is delicious and the restaurant is cozy, ideal for parties of 2-4. While their menu is smaller, it’s constantly changing due to their seasonal farm-to-table selections. Be sure to stop by on Sundays when they also offer a 4 course Prix Fixe menuContinue reading “Pumpkin”

Marinating the mushrooms before stuffing them adds a lot of flavor to this dish. Stuffed mushroom caps don’t have to be unhealthy, and this recipe uses mostly vegetables and some crumbled goat cheese for aContinue reading “Spinach Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms”

The fine dining BYO scene in Philadelphia is vibrant and exclusive, with restaurants offering limited seating and seasonal menus. The Farm and Fisherman is one of our favorites. Not only is the food delicious, but the plating is a beautiful work of art that will leave you in awe of your dinner. It’s almost too prettyContinue reading “The Farm and Fisherman”

To be completely honest, there really isn’t much of a difference between the two now that Same Same has expanded their menu- other than theContinue reading “Street Side”

Located in Honeybrook, PA, an hour and 10 minutes outside of Philadelphia, is one of my most favorite places to go for Sunday Brunch- Wyebrook Farm. You get to eat directly on the farm, with the freshest food you can imagine (it’s grown right there!) The food is delicious, and the scenery is gorgeous- itContinue reading “Wyebrook Farm”

I am not the biggest fan of the cold, but I am most definitely a fan of hearty soups! They are an ideal meal for the colder months and I love to make a big batch and then freeze containers a quick meal later in the season, especially if I’m not feeling well. This smokeyContinue reading “Smokey Corn Soup”

Philadelphia desperately needed a new coffee shop- one that serves not just coffee, but delicious food all day as well. And while there are many coffee shops around town, we want more than just a muffin or cookie to nosh on. Well, have no fear Bluestone Lane is here, bringing you a Flat White, someContinue reading “Bluestone Lane”

Matt & Marie’s is Modern Italian asking the most important question of all – what’s your perfect sandwich? It has only been a year and a half since the opening of Matt & Marie’s flagship store at 18th and Arch, but Justin “Matt” Sapolsky and Nicole “Marie” Capp have already opened up a second location in Rittenhouse. They strongly believeContinue reading “Matt & Marie’s”
