Ishkabibble's - South Street

@travelingtee
Hands down, one of the best cheesesteaks in the city. Real ones know! I've been eating at Ishkabibbles since I was a baby.

The Couch Tomato Cafe & Bistro - Manayunk
The Couch Tomato Café & Bistro, Manayunk
@travelingtee
Tucked away next to the Schuylkill river, Manayunk is a trendy neighborhood that is home to my personal favorite grilled cheese and tomato soup in the whole city!

Silk City - Northern Liberties
Silk City
@travelingtee
Again, real ones know Silk City as being a staple in the city for a couple decades now. Silk City is perfect for a late-night diner dash, but it's even better as a brunch spot to help take the edge off of a raucous night.

El Vez - Center City

@travelingtee
El Vez's $6 happy hour menu can't be beat. Make sure to order the guac with crab in it and eat feast on some amazing Mexican food.

Barbuzzo - Center City

@travelingtee
Delicious Mediterranean restaurant in the heart of the city. When you go, order the whipped ricotta and the house-ground meatballs, and then thank me later.

Hey! My name is Tee, and I'm from Philly, but at this point, my wanderlust has taken me all over the world. I spent time studying in Japan, and I lived in London for a while. Right now, I live in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I've been for the past five or six years. I have been lucky to visit over 30 countries since I began traveling at 18 years old. I've got some solid tips for solo travelers, budget travelers, lady travelers, Black travelers, and the LGBTQ+ fam. I'm here to make traveling feel accessible and rewarding for everyone, no matter where you come from!
If you need tips for Southeast Asia, Asia, or the Eastern Seabord of the USA, I'm your girl. And if you still don't believe me hit me up on IG @traveling.tee and see all I've done so that I can bring you the best advice I possibly can!
