Montoya's Travel Tips for Philadelphia

What are the best places to eat and drink in Philadelphia?

Our favorite restaurant was Ma Lessie's in the Reading Terminal Market. Fried chicken with classic soul food dies like candied yams, collard greens, mac and cheese, etc. just feed the soul. The line (and therefore the wait) is usually long but it is worth it! Also, food halls when traveling with kids = travel hack. Everyone gets the opportunity to eat what they want while all in the same space.

What are the best places to eat and drink in Philadelphia?

Favorite restaurant is The Dandelion for a unique experience to make you feel like you've stepped back in time out of the hustle & bustle of the city. After our Flytographer photoshoot, we explored Bloomsday by Society Hill and the restaurant Fork!

What are the best things to do in Philadelphia?

We had our photoshoot at the Piers by the Ben Franklin Bridge and Elfred's Alley, which offer a variety of vendors and historic tours. If you do head to The Dandelion for a meal, it is right near Rittenhouse Square and a lot of places to shop! Around the holidays, Christmas Village near City Hall and Macy's Lightshow have been a family tradition for generations! We love to go around to all of the vendors and get some chocolate-covered fruit, buy Christmas presents, and then head over to watch the lightshow inside. It is magical no matter what age you are!
