Food Scene

This is a favorite Italian BYOB, just around the corner from my house. You must try this amazingly light and silky homemade pappardelle: PASTA NERA ALLA PESCARECCIA Homemade black pappardelle pasta sautéed with prawns + jumbo lump crab meat in a delicate tomato sauce.

Arts & Culture

Great overall collection. I love the illuminated manuscripts. My nephew was intrigued by the medieval armor suits. Excellent Duchamp exhibit. Jazz and cocktails on some Friday nights.

Sightseeing

This is where the Declaration of Independence was signed. To take the tour, you'll need tickets. If you want day-of tickets, get to the Visitors Center at 8 a.m. when they open. The line forms fast. Otherwise, you can order in advance. Worth it! Across the street is the Liberty Bell.
