Philadelphia?

yo check out dem zhuns over there!

What is a jawn?

I gravitate to coffee shops and bars.

On my list to check out is Omai Zakka.

I've never heard of it. It looks good!

If you're a true coffee diva you MUST go to Ultimo (there's two locations, just pick one). I could recommend you like 20 different bars too depending on location, vibe/atmosphere, type of drinks, etc. Beer? Cocktails? Wine?

Beer

Vibe: not fraternity or sports

MONK'S CAFE. Boom. Done. Other than that there are so many good beer bars that you could just look up a good one wherever you are in the neighborhood but Monk's Cafe is absolutely essential.

There's some great bars in Old City (Eulogy, National Mechanics, etc) but they can be kind of fratty bro-town. Basically though I think that there's going to be a really great beer bar in every single neighborhood you would conceivably go to. I'd just plan your trip and then look up stuff in those areas.

But go to Monk's

lol @ fratty bro-town

Stevie thank you so much!

how long will you be in town?

Until tomorrow

I work today and tomorrow til 5:30p but if you need a drinking buddy I'd be totally down for a pint at some point before idk like 8 or 9

I'm at Ultimo now on 22nd. So mellow. Life in slow motion. Philly is cool

This what we try to tell everyone all the time!! I used to live 2 blocks away from that Ultimo at 20th/Catharine. It ruled.

Except that it ended horribly bcz the guy I was living with was a deeply awful person but hey at least I lived near a cool coffee shop

Thinking of going back for a day of walking and hanging out in April

considering April 10-11 maybe

who's the girl?

some rando

was it as good as Oscar's tho

We did not make it past the swaying, growling drunk on the steps there.

Are those... cheese slices... on that... thing............

anythg fun going down b4 il papa visits?

well, free Stevie Wonder concert yesterday

we had one of those here too

i have no idea tbh

Thinking we might come in and see the Mummers parade. Please give me a full breakdown of how/where is best, keeping in mind we have small kids.

part of my soon to be extended fam is moving back to philly next year, gonna be some extra pressure from the mrs to make the jump from central pa, i think

no help 4 u with the mummers, man alive

I'll probably be there as well unless I chicken out and stay home

Philly is the beeeest!!!! I've never actually done the Mummers parade tho. I'm sure anywhere along Broad Street is fine.

Coming in on the bus on NYE at 3. Plan is to walk from the station to shuylkill River park, chill, then visit a bunch of coffee places concluding at chapter house then kill time in hotel room until 10 then over to fish town to some brewery and then Johnny Brenda's for a sunny day in Glasgow NYE show then mummers parade in the morning and leaving by bus at 3

that sounds p cool for like a day in philly. ASDIG is fun live!

if you want coffee shop rex, Elixr and Ultimo are both tippy-top, and La Colombe is great too (if you're looking for like nose-in-the-air single origin hand pourover wanky bullshit where the staff is really friendly and the coffee is $5 and tastes incredible)

Also there are few things I love more than answering ppl's Philly recommendation questions so if you have any post them here and indulge me!

Went to Ultimo and Colombe last time I was there, hitting Elixir this time

I think as far as 3rd Wave Coffee goes, Elixr is our crown jewel.

Having a very focused weekend visit, hoping the ballgame on Saturday isn't rainy and the Renoir/Renoir show at Barnes is worth it.

Most powerful man in Philly politics (allegedly) did some extremely Philly crimes:
- Embezzled money to buy SWEATPANTS & CARGO SHORTS
- Embezzled money buy $6 million worth of Eagles/76ers/Phillies/Flyers/etc tickets
- Misappropriated union resources so he could run his own bar pic.twitter.com/9L4UnZPCiP

Yeah, my mom was literally just telling me about that yesterday. Prompted by a visit (here) to a dumpling house that was to our surprise 100% disposable-products free and 100% paperless, incl. no cash.

Hi, I live here now. I see StevieD every once in a while at concerts or in the neighborhood. who else is here?

I live just outside the city and try to get to shows as often as I can.

I grew up in West Chester and barely recognize the city when I go back to Philly.

Anybody interested in two free tickets to Aniara tonight at the Ritz? I won them in a drawing but didn’t realize it conflicted with one of the last Movie Mondays at the Troc :/

If you’re interested just let me know and I’ll twll you how to redeem it.

I live here (I'm also a recluse (not really))
