Federal Donuts (University City Philadelphia, PA) 2015-05-01

Federal Donuts always offers a wide selection of interesting and delicious donuts. We had heard that they were staying open for students suffering through finals and stopped by the University City location to discover to our dismay that they were already closed and the online posting we had read was incorrect.
Heart-broken, we lucked out as the employee closing up the shop opened the door and surprised us with various donuts. Cheers to Federal Donuts and their generosity.

Independence Beer Garden (Philadelphia, PA) 2015-04-25
100 South Independence Mall
West Philadelphia, PA
Phone: (215) 922-7100
Web: http://www.phlbeergarden.com/
Independence Beer Garden is a large spacious area in Independence Mall (near the Liberty Bell) that uses all the space around the Rohm & Hass Building. There's bar seating, Adirondack chairs, green space and even air-conditioned re-purposed shipping containers to hang out in during the warmer summer months. Be warned, if its windy or chilly it can be difficult to stay warm if you're not dressed appropriately.
There certainly have been a plethora of outdoor pop up style beer gardens in Philadelphia over the past few years and this is definitely one of the good ones to check out.

Nomad Roman
1305 Locust Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107
Phone: (215) 644-9287
Web: http://www.nomadpizzaco.com/philadelphia.html
Pennsylvania 6 is a seafood focused restaurant that offers dollar oysters for happy hour with cocktails and other specials. After cocktails, oysters and appetizers we walked over to Nomad's Brick and Mortar store, Nomad Roman. I've eaten from the Nomad food truck but never their actual restaurant. The pizza was good and we sampled their dessert Nutella pizza. It wasn't bad but I'd argue that there needed to be more banana.

Bar-Ly and Bonchon (Chinatown Philadelphia, PA) 2015-04-10
Bar-Ly and Bonchon (Chinatown Philadelphia, PA) 2015-04-10
Bar-Ly
101 North 11th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107
Phone: (215) 922-2699
Email:info@bar-ly.com
Bar-Ly offers a nice selection of beers and drinks in Chinatown. Happy Hour offers and even better price point for snacks, food, and drinks.
Bonchon opened in Philadelphia's Chinatown recently and we were obliged to check it out. I've eaten at a Bonchon in New York and this is along the same lines. The spicy chicken is very tasty, if you're into spicy foods. It might be a bit much for those who don't enjoy such heat. The soy flavored chicken is also good but compared to the spicy option, it doesn't have quite as much flavor. Bonchon also offers a great seaweed salad and salmon avacado ball. We'll have to come back to try other items on the menu. The drinks in the photos are of a yogurt soju which was my first time trying it. Not bad if you're into soju or yogurt flavored asian drinks.
