Breslow Partners attends Best of Philly Party 2015

BOP_01-croppePhiladelphia Magazine threw their annual Best Of Philly party last night and it was, well, the best. Under the watchful eye of William Penn, Philadelphians and food enthusiasts alike descended upon Dilworth Park for a night of the city’s best food, drinks, and music. Here are some of our top picks for the evening:

  • Farm and Fisherman Tavern + MarketBest Kid-Friendly Restaurant, was serving corn three ways; corn pudding, charred corn, and popcorn. You can find this farm-to-table BYOB at two locations, Washington Square West and Cherry Hill.
  • Kensington Quarters, Best Butcher Shop, featured a pork head cheese that was an instant hit. In addition to a butcher shop, KQ is also a restaurant and is open for dinner Tuesday – Sunday, with a can’t-miss brunch Sunday morning.
  • Laurel, Best Restaurant, stole the show with their caramelized white chocolate pudding. Reservations are hard to come by at this East Passyunk spot, but they often alert their Twitter followers to last minute cancelations (@LaurelEPX).

Thank you Philly Mag for such a fun night, we’re already counting down to next year’s party!
