On Monday I’ll be near Philadelphia for work; rather than head straight home at the end of the day and become homicidal sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic, I think I might pop into the city to wait out rush hour and grab a bite to eat. What do you think, do the touristy thing and pick up a cheesesteak, or try to find a cheap eat hidden gem? I’m leaning toward hidden gem, but could use a few recommendations, especially for spots that are easy to get to. Help!
Also, I dread the GW Bridge. Is there ever a time when it’s not backed up?

Unfortunately I got into the city after it had closed for the day. A shame, because I love Terminal Market!
