The Franklin Fountain
There’s not much to said about Franklin Ice Cream, other than they have amazing flavors and sweets, the parlor has a retro vibe, the staff wears a bow tie and they served the Ice cream in Chinese takeout boxes. Can you ask for more?
No hay mucho que decir de Franklin Ice Cream, solo que tienen increĆbles sabores y dulces, el lugar tiene un ambiente retro, el personal usa corbata de lazo y sirven el mantecado en cajas para llevar estilo chino. ¿Puedes pedir mĆ”s?
Note: Try the Mt. Vesuvius Ice Cream. So good!

Philadelphia's Magic Gardens
This gallery was created by artist Isaiah Zagar, following his passion for mosaic. In 1994 he began building what is now known as Magic Gardens. It has interior spaces where works of artists from around the world are exhibited and special activities are performed. However, the main attraction is the outdoor labyrinth where you can find all kinds of unusual materials, colors, and figures.

Mac Mart
If your cheese obsesses –like me- this place will not disappoint you. From creamy mac & cheese topped with buttery herb and garlic lobster meat, to grilled cheese stuffed mac & cheese… Mac Mart is definitely ‘Not your Mama’s Mac.’
