I was on my bicycle headed north on Broad Street when I decided to take myself out for a romantic dinner. Luckily for me, the famed chef Marc Vetri just opened a new restaurant on the corner of Broad and Brown.

I strolled into Osteria sans reservation, expecting to be killed instantly by the withering stare of a snooty host. Surprisingly, everyone was sweet as pie. Since the dining room was full, [...]

As I was making my way through town on errands, I thought I’d check out the falafel truck to see if I was early or late enough for lunch. It turned out I was neither, so I got a picture of the line and kept rolling.

The event will last two hours and run through Old City, starting off outside the National Constitution Center and ending with a fun after party at Moriarty’s Restaurant & Irish Pub.

So grab some friends and have some [...]

Ever since I moved here to Philadelphia, I’ve been desperately seeking a good Latin dance club. I don’t mean to brag, but I am a rather stellar dancer, bearing no resemblance what-so-ever to Ben Stiller in Along Came Polly when it comes to moving across the dance floor. I’m no Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman either, but I can hold my own in comparison to Antonio Banderas in Take The Lead… [...]
