Parc Brasserie in Philadelphia is one of my new favorite places in the city…I’ve been finding more and more bits of Paris in my new city! We arrived early on a weekday morning, but after most had headed to work, so it was luxuriously calm, and there was a very pleasant breeze (even in this heat). Looking out over Rittenhouse Sqaure, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast, complete with an (almost) perfect, flaky, croissant. Great people (and dog) watching, and our waitress was seriously cool…ask for J.D.! I truly got lost for a bit, and my mind wandered off to the bistros in Paris…le sigh.

We enjoyed our two day “staycation” in Philadelphia, and Le Meridien was comfortable, chic, and centrally located. We squeezed in as much as possible, and I will be sharing more of our local adventures next week. I just had to share a glimpse of the hotel lobby…I’m loving all the circular shapes, and it seems fitting, as I’ve been running around in circles lately (in a good way)!
