Things To Do
Frankford Hall
We went here on our first date on crisp fall evening!
JG Skyhigh
Enjoy the views of Philadelphia from the 60th floor of The Comcast Center. Luis proposed here!
Rittenhouse Square
Philadelphia is a city of historic squares. Explore our favorite neighborhood in the city and where we spent most of our time. Take a stroll through the shops and restaurants. End your time walking through the park or enjoy the farmer's market Saturday morning.
Philadelphia Museum of Art
Explore the museum with its unique galleries. Race up the iconic front steps. Take your photo at the top with your best Rocky pose or one with the statue below. Explore the museum's surroundings including the Fairmount Fountain Works, Boat House Row, and Benjamin Franklin Parkway.
La Colombe Coffee Roasters
Diana's favorite coffee shop in the city. Fun fact, this was the first La Colombe in the country.
Vita
Our favorite gelato place in the city!
Old City
Walk the cobblestone and tree lined streets like our founding fathers! Take a tour of Independence Hall, see the Liberty Bell, or simply sit on a bench at Independence Square to take in all the historic events that transpired in Philadelphia. Perfect for a summer afternoon in the city.
Suraya Restaurant
Suraya is an award-winning Lebanese restaurant and garden located in the Fishtown neighborhood. This is a personal favorite of ours. Make sure to make reservations ahead of time to get a table. Please note that there is only a tasting menu option for brunch and dinner Friday-Sunday.
Amada
Amada is Ecuadorian/American Chef Garces' iconic first restaurant. Great place for tapas and sangria!
Cafe La Maude
Cafe La Maude is a Philly brunch destination serving French-Lebanese inspired dishes. The best brunch place in Philadelphia in our opinion. Would recommend coming early to avoid a long wait time on Saturday as they do not take reservations.
Reading Terminal Market
Reading Terminal Market, one of the nation’s oldest and largest public markets, first opened in 1893. It houses more than 70 food stands and local vendors. Try the best of Philadelphia all in one place!
Double Knot
Double Knot showcases two floors of beautiful design – cocktail lounge upstairs, sushi bar and robatayaki underneath. Their tasting menu is incredible! A Diana favorite.
Bok Bar
Bok Bar is a spacious rooftop bar on the top floor of an old school building in South Philly that has 360-degree views of the entire city! A go-to place for Luis and the boys.
A La Mousse
Excellent dessert place in center city. Luis's family's favorite spot!
Apricot Stone
A taste of Armenian cuisine in Philadelphia. Sit outside on the stone patio on a summer afternoon and sample delicious Armenian food.
