Philadelphia Restaurants and Dining

The Philadelphia area has perhaps surpassed DC as the most interesting and important culinary ground in the Mid-Atlantic region. Our forum is designed for Philly residents who truly care about great food, but also for tourists coming to experience all that the City of Brotherly Love has to offer, and - most importantly - wishing to rely on native expertise instead of a guidebook. Philadelphia is over 300 years old, yet is blossoming from a nascent period in the culinary arts - visitors will be looking towards it as a travel destination as it continues to grow and blossom. Your posts here will be permanently and lovingly curated, and this forum will be looked back upon as an important, historical document.
