Philadelphia Lands In The Top 10 Of Best Foodie Cities In The US
Living in the Philadelphia area and it’s suburbs has plenty of benefits, one of the biggest is it’s restaurant scene. According to US News & World Report, Philadelphia is a foodie’s dream and has found its way inside the top 10 Best Foodie Cities in the U.S. It’s great to get this confirmation for the city, but for many of us living here for our entire lives we are well aware of how good the food in Philadelphia is.
Philly isn’t just 1 or 2 specific types of food that we do well. It’s a literal smorgasbord of variety. In center city you can find restaurants from top restaurateurs and chefs. Of course you’ve got the main food staples everyone from everywhere has to visit when in the city, Reading Terminal Market, the Italian Market, Chinatown and cheesesteaks. I won’t mention any specific places because finding the right cheesesteak is really a pick your own adventure game. Venture just a few miles outside the city limits in any direction and find great options in Bucks, Montgomery and Delaware counties.
With so many options in the area it’s tough to try everything because life gets in the way. I’ve never tried barbacoa, but apparently it’s amazing. Philly has a spot that’s been featured on Chef’s Table called South Philly Barbacoa. Grab some comfort food at the Dining Car in the North East. Head out to Newtown for a great Italian dinner at Vecchia Osteria. If you’re schedule is too jammed up to make it out in the near future, and food porn is all you’re looking for then check out the Angelo’s Pizzeria’s Instagram page.
