Kimball House: Order some oysters and perhaps dip into the elaborate absinthe service and be transported. #BAcityguides
Manuel's Tavern: Open since 1956, Manuel’s is an all-day gathering center: a cop bar, a place to write the next great Southern novel, the spot to play Trivia Night with your friends. #BAcityguides
Home Grown: House-smoked brisket biscuits, killer breakfast tacos, pancakes, cheddar chili hash browns, and more. They serve breakfast all day, and it’s a good thing—though the vegan Sloppy Joe is a star at lunch. #BAcityguides

Fat Rice: Like the food, the loud, punky restaurant is not for the faint of heart. It feels like a night market in Southeast Asia—the only thing missing is the smoke in the air. #BAcityguides

Gaslight Coffee Roasters: Finally, a coffee shop you don’t have to flee when you want something to eat. #BAcityguides

Dizengoff: Styled after an Israeli hummusiya, the menu is limited to plates of Solomonov’s superlative, tahini-rich chickpea spread and a rotating array of seasonal toppings—posted to Instagram each morning—ranging from spiced chopped lamb with pistachios to roasted carrots, cilantro, and a seedy sprinkle of dukkah. #BAcityguides
High Street on Market: The best bread in the East—and a full menu to go with it. #BAcityguides
Hotel Monaco: The corner spa rooms are the best in the house, with a Japanese soaking tub and a view of the Liberty Bell. #BAcityguides

BA City Guides: Philadelphia

16 Pins

Gautreau's: A former apothecary, this hushed jewel box of a dining room, nestled in a leafy residential neighborhood uptown, feels miles away from the raucous din of the Quarter. #BAcityguides

G&B: Downtown’s best coffee bar just happens to be surrounded by great food. #BAcityguides
Gjusta: It is a juice bar; a coffee bar; a charcuterie counter; an appetizing shop outputting pickled herring, smoked oysters, and gravlax; a pizza place; a sandwich spot, using house-roasted meats; a bakery; and a sacred space for vegetable dishes so vibrant they could bring Alice Waters to tears. #BAcityguides
Baroo: Think farro with roasted koji beet cream, concentrated kombu dashi, and onion-rose pickles, topped with farmers’ market sprouts and radishes. #BAcityguides

Eleven Madison Park: Super pro tip: There is a woman on staff called the “Dreamweaver,” whose entire job is to satisfy your wish for the evening, such as procuring a customized sled on a snowy night and then painting your name on it. So dream big. #BAcityguides
Rikumo: Customers go gaga over Rikumo’s towels. They’re slimmer and more compact than picnic-blanket-sized terrycloth towels—yet also somehow more absorbent. #BAcityguides
Achilles Heel: Natural wines, smart-but-not-smart-ass cocktails, and local suds keep everyone loose. New Yorkers will tell you that the corner of Greenpoint it’s on is literally the Middle of Nowhere (it’s six blocks from the train). But when golden hour light is shining through those west-facing windows, there’s no place we’d rather be. #BAcityguides
