"So, there are some out-of-town hype trains that come to Philly and aren’t worth it (sigh, Raising Cane’s). But then there are some that truly meet the moment and take you away. Meet Levain Bakery, who recently opened their first flagship location in Rittenhouse earlier this month. There’s been long lines and heavy foot traffic since its grand opening and for good reason. The cookies are as big in taste as they are in size. While every cookie is worth a try at Levain, I’d recommend the fall chocolate chunk cookies. No, this isn’t a PSL with chocolate chips — but something better. Made with ginger, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon and molasses, these 6-ounce cookies are packed with all the seasonal bliss and ooey-gooey greatness you want right now. While these cookies are no cheap thrill (a 4-pack is $23.10), it’s worth the splurge." - Ernest Owens
