possibilities, as well as what some critics have called a "restaurant
renaissance," which The New York Times claims "…has put
Philadelphia on the food map." This culturally and ethnically diverse city
boasts spectacular five-star restaurants in addition to dozens of outstanding
eateries to suit every taste and pocketbook.
There are also big and small pleasures to
be found in Philadelphia, including The Kimmel Center for Performing Arts, the
