Eat, Stay, Play: Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
Posted on September 22, 2014 by Nikki Pepper
Philly is known for its Pat’s vs. Geno’s rivalry and rowdy sports teams but we’ve found a quieter spot with a bit more style at Rittenhouse Square. Visit this swanky part of the city of brotherly love for a weekend of food without all that grease and a little retail therapy along Walnut Street.
