"The eatery features neon colored booths lit from within, wavy bamboo walls and ceilings, and funky little tables in the lounge that give the place a super stylish, modern atmosphere. You may recognize chef Morimoto from his Iron Chef days, or even from Nobu in NYC. The menu includes a number of entrees, including several dishes from Nobu, but for a truly unique Morimoto experience, you must order the Omakase."

"There are many solid sushi choices to choose from in this city and Morimoto is proof that Philly really does care about sushi. Located in Washington Square West, this upscale restaurant specializes in sushi bites that are meant to blow your taste palette away. The menu is prepared by Food Network star and Iron Chef, Masaharu Morimoto."

Spaces within the restaurant are often reserved for community education and events, which cover everything from Black history and healthy eating, to pop-up shops supporting other Black businesses. While the entire menu is delicious, they are known for their dairy-free baked goods, and vegan pepper steak, jerk chicken, and fried fish."

"Bars Lounges Old City. One of the more spacious rooftop lounges in the city, Stratus keeps it swanky while not feeling stiff, with plenty of flowers and greenery to keep you feeling less concrete-claustrophobic while you take in glorious views of Chestnut Street in Old City. The menu includes a diverse lineup of lighter wines, with an even bigger variety of floral- and citrus-inspired cocktails."

"Located on the top of Kimpton Hotel Monaco, Stratus Rooftop Lounge was revamped and renovated just earlier this year, and it looks sleeker than ever. Snack on tasty bites like their skillet roasted brie served with pecans and warm honey on a French baguette or their truffle fingerling potatoes served with lemon aioli. There’s live music many nights, and the ambiance is always fantastic."

"Stratus Lounge sits on top of an early twentieth century building in the Historic District of Philadelphia. The rooftop bar of the Hotel Monaco, Stratus Lounge owes its expertly crafted cocktails to resident mixologist Bess Gulliver, who gives the drinks a global twist."

"And because there’s an entire locker filled with board games for you and all your friends. 2201 Lombard Street, Fitler Square."

"If you’ve ever had any Kinsey rye or bourbon, then you know how good the folks at New Liberty are at their craft (and if you haven’t, you really ought to). But this Kensington-based distillery, launched in 2014 by former Philadelphia Distilling master distiller (and creator of Bluecoat Gin) Robert Cassell, isn’t just about whiskey — they also happen to make some killer vodka, rum, gin, and liqueurs, too. Order bottles ahead for pickup, shop on-site, or have them shipped to you."

"Housed in a former stable, New Liberty’s distillery includes a bar and tasting room where visitors can try out the company’s whiskies and sample inventive whiskey cocktails. Weekly tours are offered on Saturdays. Working from a long tradition of Pennsylvania whiskies (the state once produced more whiskey than Kentucky), master distiller Robert Cassell crafts small batches of rye and bourbon as well as a superb aged whiskey, the Pennsylvania Dutch Malt."

"Hop across the river to the Camden Children’s Garden, where you’ll find all kinds of hands-on activities geared toward children. There are rides, a train, a dino garden, and plenty of workshops to teach kids about gardening and nature. View this post on Instagram"

"Float Dreamery, a new “cow-lorie free” (cheeky, just like all their Instagram captions) gelato venture that operates out of Castellino’s side window every Saturday, could be considered the vegan version of 1-900-Ice-Cream, as they sell out almost every week. That comes as no surprise, with flavors like MMM Matcha Say which is made with a matcha base, wild blueberry jam, and white chocolate flecks, and I-Cupo made with a vanilla base, lemon curd, and bits of olive oil cake on the menu. If they’re sold out for the week, fret not, they have some walk-up pints available at the window along with rotating scoops and ice cream sandwiches."

"1-900-Ice Cream is one of the toughest pints in the city to procure; you have to really want 1-900 to get 1-900. And (within limits) you should do whatever it takes. Ryan Fitzgerald has been making batches of inventive, sometimes unhinged, flavors since 2018, using local dairy and tapping classic childhood flavors elevated by exceptional ingredients (think: Madagascar vanilla beans, Van Leer chocolate)."

"The best ice cream in the city is made out of a Kensington basement, and the only way to get your hands on a pint is to sign up for their flavor drops and buy something before they sell out. The flavors vary with every drop, but they range from key lime pie to dark chocolate with potato chips - and they’re all incredible."

"Since 2013, Andre Andrews has been mixing up batches of homemade ice cream and water ice in flavors inspired by his grandma’s cooking. This summer, find his scoops of banana pudding, sweet potato pie, or strawberry shortcake ice cream, and water ice in flavors like mango lemonade on a roving truck or at Spruce Street Harbor Park. 📍Spruce Street Harbor Park, 301 S."
