The best restaurant I ate at there was an Irish restaurant called Fado that was AWESOME!

There's also a sportsbar downtown, right next to the Hard Rock. It's called Champs I believe. Do not eat there. Friend of mine got food poisoning there and the place didn't seem to clean.

Well, hell, you and me and some of us here in the east ought to arrange a Springfield style get-together for Nasium and then... Wait. Oh, shit. Sorry, I gotta cancel. nm.

Be sure to eat at a restaurant called "Tequilas" (15th and Locust, I believe)
Have a drink or two at "Cheers to You" (on South Street)
Get yourself a hot pretzel right out of the oven (after midnight, in South Philly... ask around)

And most importantly... try not to get your ass kicked. Keep in mind, most people in Philly hate you.

They may hate you, but I've never run into ANYONE in Philadelphia who was rude or less than helpful.

Look for an excuse to leave as quickly as possible?

The Ben Franklin bridge is on the far eastern end of town. You'll want to take a cab to downtown.

There's a place called Delila's there, I think it's over on the west side of town near the Skuylkill. It's basically a titty bar that serves steaks and stuff.

There's a great bar called Finegan's Wake if you want to see some live music. Not sure where that is, I was drunk when I went there by taxi with friends. Lots of great restaurants downtown too.

That Chiefs bar I believe is on the south side, like way down by the sports stadiums. I think.


Nothing like Steak and Tits! :thumb:

:D

You can't be serious. Philly is the rudest, most racist, most hateful place I have ever been on this earth. I have been all across the US, travelled and lived outside the US and never been to a place like Philly. Do/ did you ever live there or have you only visited? I can tell you I lived there for a year and I would never go back to the Philly I lived in.

Remember everyone talks just like that Hardee's philly burger commercial..... so do that while you're there..... they like that.....
