The location is particularly convenient 'cos you can grab dime bags right from across the street in case you need to build an appetite.

I've spent a lot of time in Philly on business trips over the last 6 months or so (about 4 1/2 weeks in total). I found that good clubs were few and far between - Evolution was decent on Saturday night, Shampoo was ok on thursday night several months ago (but was absolutely dead last month) - I happened to be in town once when Max Graham was spinning and later when Danny Howells was there.

The city is actually much nicer than it's reputation would lead you to believe, but the 'cool' scene is definitely lacking. 'South Street' is vastly overrated btw.

Pick up a 'City Paper' or "Phialdelphia Weekly' (the equivalent on "eye' or 'now") and see what's up for when you're there...City Paper has a website here:

and of course wash it down with an iced (get 2 brown bags to prevent hands from getting cold) 40 of malt lick!

and to help you with the lingo, try this party favourite: 'yo mama's such a drunk she majored in ol'E, beeitch!'
:D

ps- stay out of camden NJ (just across the bridge), trust me!

I'm going to come to your house, make fun your CDs, Puke on your bed, then bust a nut on the futon, then play the "Bort Song" on the casio and then make long distance crank calls!

Look out House of Sin! :p

Philly is really fun, for about a day (or two)...

South Street is sorta like Queen, so it's nifty. But stay between Front and Sixth Streets...

On Friday, I'd hit Penn's Landing, on the riverfront, basically because there won't be any weekend crowds. It's not the most exiting thing in the world, but, believe me, the more you have to do while in town, the better.

You can cross right over to Market Street from Penn's Landing, and from there you could walk up until City Hall. City Hall's the big building down the street with William Penn at the top. Btw, that statue used to be the marker for the highest allowed building height in the city.

On the way to city hall you'll go by the liberty bell and congress hall (at 5th). Some people feel these are worth checking out. I lived there most of my life, and never went into congress hall...

When you get to city hall, there are a few choices. You can walk south to Walnut, then west a few blocks and hit the fashionable Rittenhouse Square. The only interesting thing I remember there is a famous croissant shop owned by a bunch of french people.

You can also head N.West, up the ben franklin parkway, to some of the museums. The only one really worth checking out is the Museum of art. It's the gigantic place at the end of the parkway. It's free on Sunday mornings!!!

If youre driving around, head up I95 to New Hope, a cool little town that looks like it was built by colonial hippies.

Ok, some food tips. You didn't mention your budget...

South Street Souvlaki is great for Greek, and its cheap. It's on... South Street, somewhere around the corner of 4th.

Roman Bistro is just off 2nd at headhouse square. It's italian and prices are "family restaurantish."

Just off 2nd and Chestnut (on 2nd) is a sandwich shop called Larry's. It's Great! Get and Italian Hoagie! Mail me one, too.

There's an IHOP on Walnut near Rittenhouse Square...

Ok, this one may be a chain, but I've never seen one in Toronto, so: on South, near the corner of 5th, is Cool Peppers. This is the best mexican junk food I've ever had. Their salsa bar is incredible.

For good indian, there's a place called Samosa just east of Broad (uhh, they changed "Broad" to "Avenue of the Arts").

What kind of night spots do you like?

If I think of anything else, I'll post...

Good luck...

CDP: Thanks for all the info. Some of the food places may come in handy! As for clubs I am into a good Hosue scene...

Dude,

I thought Penn rejected you for your Masters in Custodial Engineering. The mop and pail skills were not up to par?

I'm sure Philly has a vibrant "hosue" scene.

"hosue" is the vietnamese word for prostitute. chrome's just airing all his dirty secrets today.

make sure when you exit a cab, you say "yo home, smell you later!" at least once.
