I would love some suggestions for lunch on a Saturday in early October. Four of us have tickets in the early afternoon to the Barnes Foundation on Benjamin Franklin Parkway and want to have an early lunch (11:30) somewhere between there and our hotel in Center City near Rittenhouse Square. Would prefer a casual sit-down place.
Would also like recommendations for dinner on Saturday night. Our favorite restaurant in Philly is Amada, we've been numerous times. We've also been to Zahav and Cochon recently. We're looking to branch out with some place new to us. I should, perhaps, mention that on the Friday night of that weekend we are going to Vedge, the extremely popular vegan restaurant on Locust Street because our daughter really wants to dine there. We're fine with that, as it gets great reviews. Our daughter is not vegan or vegetarian, just fascinated with vegetarian food.
