Delicious City Philly

You want to know all about the Philadelphia food scene and all the amazing and delicious places to eat? Well, you've landed on the right spot, and in this episode we are going to tell you exactly where you need to be eating now.

We have a huge announcement about the Philadelphia "Home Grown" Food and Music series that Delicious City is throwing in partnership with FCM Hospitality and that will be going on every Tuesday throughout the summer.

While both Eli and Sarah did a ton of eating at The James Beard Awards in Chicago this past week, there's literally nothing like some good old Philly homegrown delicious eats. Sure, other cities might have more restaurants, bigger restaurants, and maybe even some fancier restaurants, but the food being cooked here in Philadelphia is exciting like no other city can match!

Welp, we've done it again! Another episode of food, fun, and a really great guest who has quite the story to tell about his father's legacy and how his dad's South Street BBQ spot meant the world to the community.

Philadelphia's dining scene continues to impress with an immense variety of cuisines and flavors, and we're the lucky ones to get to talk about them. This episode just may contain the best Best Bites we've talked about so far.

We wrap up with a brand new trivia game called "Name That Joint," where you have to identify the iconic Philly restaurant with as few clues as possible.

Thank you to our amazing partners who make all of this possible:

Broken shoes fixed with orange gaff tape, first meal after giving birth, and clam strips by the sea are just a few of the topics we're kicking this mega episode off with.

SPOILER ALERT: We have the most hyped Philly Hoagieman in studio with us, Hoagie Dom, and he tells us about how the lore of Hoagie Dom has changed his life, having his monthly "Hoagie Residency" that sells out in 41 seconds once he posts the type of hoagie that he's serving.

As always, our Best Bites will be awarded to the worthy recipients, and Sarah will be bringing all the latest restaurant news to make sure you know exactly where you need to be making your next reservation.

And make sure you wait till the end to catch this week's food Jeopardy that has a very pertinent category that you're going to want to test your knowledge on along with the hosts.

The crew's back together after Sarah returned from her epic trip to the most epic region of Italy and she has plenty to talk about!

And not only do we have Sarah back, but we have one of Philadelphia's funniest people out there who loves to rap about food, (Not wrap, but RAP!) Comedian Nicole Phoenix!

Get ready for our Best Bites, which we have some good ones this week, as well as all the local food news and as many Philadelphia restaurant recommendations as you will find in any podcast out there!

Sometimes you have to mix it up. This week we have a couple guests filling in for one of our cohosts. Any guesses who's out?

You best grab something to eat while you listen to this episode of Delicious City Philly, because it's all about the most delicious places to eat in Philadelphia. We're talking about amazing fried chicken spots, decadent truffle covered pastas, ridiculous vegan Dan Dan noodles, and tons and tons more.

We also have a special guest, Skyler Bouchard, who is going to talk about all her favorite local BYOB restaurants and which ones you should be bringing to them.

And don't forget that award season is upon us, so listen in and hear all of Philadelphia's James Beard finalists who will be going to Chicago for the ceremony.

There's a ton packed into this latest segment of Delicious City as we talk about restaurants that we wish we had eaten at before they were gone, the latest James Beard Foundation nominations, and Marisa's favorite vegan wing spot.

Come for the food news and stay for 1st ever Philly Food Jeopardy as we pit the two cohosts against each other in a winner-takes-all knowledge brawl. And lastly, Fidel Gastro puts one of Philadelphia's famous chefs, Jose Garces, in the hot seat as he drills him on all the tough questions, like what's up with Chicago style pizza and what the true price of fame is when it comes to inappropriate following by fans.

Delicious City Philly has finally reached a decade....or at least made it to the 10th episode. But anyway, who's really counting? And besides, this is by far the best episode, so I guess it is true, you do get finer with age. Get ready for a jam-packed episode where you're going to get all the details on where you need to eat next and what's happening out there in the Philly foodiverse, because there is a lot going on. Besides vaccine mandates dropping, James Beard nominations happening, and all sorts of hilarious nefarious food activity, you're going to be hungry and happy by the close of this one. Oh, and at the end, there's a mystery guest who we guarantee will have an "influence" on where you're going to eat next, so make sure you listen to the very end.
