We left the Benjamin Franklin Museum at around 5 and started to make our way to Market Street where the shopping is at! Surprisingly, at the fountain in the photo above, parents let their kids swim around! Is this a thing in Philadelphia? Haha! The kids looked like they were having fun though.
Sephora had a giant line because 3 famous YouTubers were having a fan meeting! I only knew Amy from Vagabond Youth from the YouTubers. (Wish I could meet Joan Kim someday huhu)
There are lots of nice stores here including a Nordstrom Rack for bargain designer products! Remember, if you like something there, you should probably get it. Chances are they're the same price or even cheaper in comparison to outlet malls.
Along Market Street, you can find a really lovely pocket park that's absolutely open to the public!
The park is dedicated to John F. Collins and I absolutely love the idea of such a stylish pocket park in the middle of a bustling commercial area. The rest of the world should take notes! :)
Look how gorgeous this place is! It still blows my mind how a public space can be so pretty!
After shopping, we went on to grab some dinner at Steve's! They're best known for their Philly Cheese Steaks!
We ordered a Classic Cheese Steak and it was absolutely delicious! So creamy and meaty but quite balanced. I enjoyed it so much!
I also took the opportunity to try an Italian Hoagie a la The Cosby Show. Haha! I loved how packed and flavored this cold sandwich is. I usually don't like cold sandwiches but I liked this a lot!
Gorgeous classic look for their UNIQLO store!
Before going home, we decided to grab some dessert at Capogiro!
Lots of super interesting flavors!
We got a Medio Cup with 3 flavors - Burnt Sugar, Gooseberry, and Cioccolato Scuro. All super good!
Burnt Sugar has a deep smoky sugary taste just as you would taste on top of a creme brulee.
Gooseberry is lightly sour, fruity, and fresh but still a little creamy! Super great to mix with your usual sweet flavors as a refreshing breath of air.
Cioccolato Scuro is a delicious deep dark chocolate with a lot of depth. Always worth the pick! :)
Stay tuned for the last part of my Philadelphia series before moving on to Washington D.C.!
