I Can Date Clearly Now the Rain is Gone!

It's that time of year!  The sun is shining, the rain is pretty much gone and outside seating is now OPEN!  There is nothing better then sitting outside with a good beer or glass of wine, good company and good eats.  The outside date is something you can do with a love interest, spouse, or a friend(s).  Either way, shake off the cabin fever and head outside!


Where do all the people meet? South Street, South Street!
There is always a great place to eat outside on South Street.  A safe suggestion would be Bridget Foy's at 200 South Street - the very end, closer to Headhouse Square.  B.Foy's has some great outdoor seating with a nice awning/railing combo that will keep you from harsh sun and/or  sporadic rain showers while enjoying your meal.  Its a great place for Brunch or an early dinner so you can catch the sunset behind you at Penn's Landing.  


The menu here is quite unique!  The Pulled Pork Empanadas, with the Feta White Bean Salad (I like to add Shrimp to mine), and an original Margarita to wash it all down is what I like to call a successful afternoon.

B.Foy's at night is very happening outside and so pretty to sit and people watch!

The Empanadas are TO DIE for!

  

Dressin' and Impressin'
If you really want to impress your date for the evening OR just want something fun to do after an early bird dinner... TONIGHT head on over to the Old City Design and Fashion Night!  From "5:30-8:30 p.m., more than 20 participating businesses, including furniture and lighting showrooms, fashion boutiques, salons and art galleries, host special events and exhibits, both public and private."  This is a free event and it's all throughout Old City  - however you do need a ticket to get in to some galleries.   


So park at Headhouse Square and walk on over to Old City after dinner (head down 2nd street till you hit Chestnut and I'm sure you'll find it).
