Philly, any recommendations?

[MassageDrew]

Hello, I'm traveling to Philly for a weekend. Any recommendations for sights to see and restaurants to try? And, of course, for massage as well. Thanks.

Three years ago, I had great luck at Dallesandro's for a cheesesteak. A tiny bit touristy (tiny bit), but at least it isn't the tourist traps downtown. Casual and easy joint a few miles north of downtown out in Roxborough

Thanks. Not really a fan of the cheesesteaks but I would be willing to try while in Philly.

Yeah, this hit me the same way as someone putting ketchup on a Chicago dog.

NORTH Philly? Really? I have never thought of anyplace west of Wissahickon Creek as North Philly. Next you are going to try to tell me that East Falls is in North Philly, too!

There's a restaurant that serves Philadelphia cheese steak fairly close to The Barnes Foundation. .Most Center City restaurants serve them as well.
