A Manhattanite in Philadelphia- Where to Eat?
Now that the warmer weather is finally hitting us, so many New Yorkers are looking to take those vacation days that they have stowed away and get out of the city for a bit. With so many different options to travel to, why not settle for something that is literally a 90 minute Amtrak ride away, with endless benefits that will guarantee you a great trip? This is of course, the “City of Brotherly Love” that we know as Philadelphia. At Manhattan Digest, we have visited some great cities in the United States from DC, Providence to most recently San Francisco, and we are very excited to show you why Philadelphia has so many great options to enjoy with such a short distance to get to them. First on our list, my personal favorite- where to eat? Going to another city should never mean hitting up a chain restaurant due to familiarity, you should divulge into the local scene and see what makes that particular city so great in terms of its fantastic food adventures. Staying in the “Gayborhood” part of Philly, there were a couple that really stood out to me for several reasons. Here are some you should visit on your next trip down there.

Peep Show Cocktails & Dancers at W Times Square
We are big fans of The Living Room inside the beautiful W Hotel, right in the heart of Times Square. It’s modern vibe and eclectic feel to it makes it stand out in an area of the city that is cluttered with not much to look at, especially if you live here and aren’t the typical “tourist” type who inhabits that part of the city. Nevertheless, they have come up with a super new concept, just in the for the spring. They are introducing six new cocktails that have a theme to them designed after the Peep candy that we all love for this time of year.
