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.

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

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— Ryan W Briggs (@rw_briggs) January 30, 2019

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.
