Advice on how to get your fill of Philly

摘要

An abundance of guidebooks and articles, not to mention your Midwinter program, are available to help you fill up on Philly. We won't try to compete with them here, but a potpourri of recent newspaper and magazine snippets might help whet your appetite for Philadelphia. Here's what they're saying: "Restaurant of the Year" is what Esquire magazine (November 1994) recently called Striped Bass, "a restaurant that tells you when you walk in that you are at the center of something." The space itself is reclaimed from a former brokerage house, at 1500 Walnut St., and "retains a genteel grace and power that has drawn the city's smartest-looking clientele ready to pay top dollar for food they can't get elsewhere in town." Are you ready for "grilled octopuswith artichoke, tomato, and olive salad" or "macadamia-crusted grouper with black beans, pineapple salsa, and aromatic rice"? Call 732-4444 for reservations.
