During your Philadelphia vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Bella Trattoria
Experience the tastes, sounds and spirits of Southern Italy in this family-owned restaurant. The bright and homey atmosphere is conducive to business lunches, dinner dates or gatherings with family and friends. Start with Antipastos, continue with your pick of pastas, meats and gourmet pizzas including such favorites as Fettuccini Gustose and Scallopini or Veal Salt'Unbocca. Perhaps you prefer sitting directly on Main Street in the summertime to watch the foot traffic. Unless you use the valet service or find room in a nearby lot, parking could pose a challenge.
Ocean Harbor
One of Chinatown's most beautiful restaurants, Ocean Harbor features Cantonese, Mandarin and Szechuan. Dim Sum served daily for lunch. There are also plenty of vegetarian dishes available. One of the non-vegetarian dishes that might catch your eye is Three Kings of Jellyfish, which is jellyfish served with squid, scallops, and conch. The portions, like all portions here, are very generous. (Most of the other dishes contain absolutely no jellyfish, however.)
Bards (The)
It used to be the Irish bartenders in town always talked about football and beer. These days they talk more about bandwidth and modem configuration, but they still know their beer. Caffrey's, Murphy's, Harp's and some of the local microbrews are on tap. There's usually six Irish whiskeys waiting. If you'd like something with your beer, there's a great Atlantic Seafood Chowder. Irish stew, burgers, and four kinds of boxty, an Irish dish of mashed potatoes flavored with shrimp, leeks, chicken, etc.
