Jase: For dessert, be sure to order farm-fresh, sheep's milk cheeses and aged ricottas from Marcelli Formaggi in Abruzzi. Amazing!
Showtime Network: Luckily, you’ve stumbled across a Philly classic that’s under the tourist radar. If only the Vatican had such a place, the Borgia family would have surely escaped papal stresses and prying eyes here.
Philadelphia Magazine: During the week from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. get $3 craft beers, $4 well drinks, $5 house wines and sangrias, and $7 signature cocktails. The happy hour menu includes special plates from $6 to $10. Read more.

JASON: Edamame dumplings are outstanding Follow with aged beef for a great Night out!
Bloomingdale's: A huge gold Buddha beams down as you live it up, modern Mandarin-style, in this dark dramatically lit palace. Contemporary Chinese dishes and the house Zen-gria keep the Asian spirit flying.
