Guidebook for Philadelphia
Food Scene
This place is a slightly chaotic urban food paradise. Row to row, aisle to aisle, it's packed with more than 100 merchants selling everything from alligator gumbo, zucchini curry, and peach upside down cake! There’s a lot to take in: the hiss of frying chicken, the constant throb of people eating, talking and surveying the endless array of goods. It can be overwhelming for both newbies and regulars alike, so it helps to have a plan of attack if you want to wade in.

The cocktails are reasonably priced and pretty good. I like their take on the Old-Fashioned, which is quite boozy. I also enjoy the Dock and Stormy, their take on the Dark and Stormy.
