Philadelaphia: 2019 - The Food Enthusiast’s Complete Restaurant Guide
()
About this ebook
There are many people who are enthusiastic about food—the cooking of it, the preparation of it, the serving of it, and let’s not forget the eating of it.
But Andrew Delaplaine is the ultimate Food Enthusiast.
This is another of his books with spot-on reviews of the most exciting restaurants in town. Some will merit only a line or two, just to bring them to your attention. Others deserve a half page or more.
“Exciting” does not necessarily mean expensive. The area’s top spots get the recognition they so richly deserve (and that they so loudly demand), but there are plenty of “sensible alternatives” for those looking for good food handsomely prepared by cooks and chefs who really care what they “plate up” in the kitchen.
For those with a touch of Guy Fieri, Delaplaine ferrets out the best food for those on a budget. That dingy looking dive bar around the corner may serve up one of the juiciest burgers in town, perfect to wash down with a locally brewed craft beer.
Whatever your predilection or taste, cuisine of choice or your budget, you may rely on Andrew Delaplaine not to disappoint.
Delaplaine dines anonymously at the Publisher’s expense. No restaurant listed in this series has paid a penny or given so much as a free meal to be included.
Bon Appétit!

INTRODUCTION
Description: a book picPHILADELPHIA IS ONE of the most popular cities in the U.S. for visitors. Philadelphia is also one of the most historic cities in America as it’s home to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, where the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence were signed. Philadelphia, known as the City of Brotherly Love, is also the fifth largest city in the U.S. so there’s obviously much to do and see. Some call the city the birthplace of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and most believe it lives up to that slogan.
Philadelphia is overflowing with history and if you’re visiting here are the attractions that you should not miss. The Liberty Bell, located on Market Street, is the symbol of freedom and this cracked bell is a historical gem. Independence Hall, on Chestnut Street, offers guided tours and visitors get to see where the Declaration of Independence was signed. The National Constitution Center, on Arch Street, offers a variety exhibitions and shows about the U.S. Constitution and American history.
Franklin Court, on Market Street, is the site of where Benjamin Franklin’s house once stood and there you’ll find a museum with a print shop, a post office where you can send letters hand-stamped with Franklin’s original postmark. Elfreth’s Alley, the oldest residential street in America, features a museum with several historic houses.
