Reason I need to get back to Philly as often as possible.
1: D'mitri's- Just a short walk from South Street this little Greek restaurant that specializes in seafood is worth the, sometimes up to an hour, wait....just go across the street and hang out at the New Wave...which has a pretty damn good menu of their own.
2: Vietnam Restaurant- I go just for their veggie spring rolls and fried veggie spring rolls. And all their other dishes I've had are pretty good too. Not to be confused with Vietnam Palace across the street...they're not as good.
3: White Dog Cafe- Pretty much everything is organic and just damn GOOD. Also just a great place to stop off for a pint after work. Right in the heart of Univ. city between Drexel and Penn....almost on Penn campus.
4: Victory Hop Devil on tap everywhere....My most favorite brew.
5: McGlinchy's- Little hole in the wall that has one of the most eclectic clientele I've ever seen....crusty punk sitting next to stock broker....and you can't beat the pints of Yuengling Porter for $1.50....I remember when it was a buck.....actually it might have gone up since I was last there....that would be sad.

That's just the start....I loved the seven years I lived in Philly, except for that fact that finding work I liked was hard there.
If we make it back there this summer, we'll drop you a line.
Cheers

Im sorry you didnt get the one you wanted, but at least you get to start afresh somewhere new!
