Georges' Favorites

  1. 1 4.5 Star Rating: Recommended Striped Bass
    Read Reviews

    1500 Walnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19102 (map)

    "They have a modern approach, a very modern kind of cooking, and I like the way they take a beautiful fish and just give it a little vinaigrette sauce. You always get the flavor of the fish there. Sauces are never overpowering."

  2. 2 3.5 Star Rating: Average Susanna Foo Chinese Cuisine **CLOSED**

    "If you want interesting Chinese cooking with all kinds of Asian fusion, Susanna Foo does a very good job. It's a place to go if you want something really different."

    "I like Vetri very much. He does authentic Italian with wonderful flavors, and the food is not too complicated. I like its simple approach with good ingredients."

  4. 4 4.5 Star Rating: Recommended Philadelphia Museum Of Art
    Read Reviews

    Art Museum Dr, Philadelphia, PA 19101 (map)

    "I love the museums here--the Philadelphia Museum of Art is just one of them. I love the city. We're not as cosmopolitan as New York; we're much more provincial in a way, but that's part of why it's so great."
