12 Ways to #OptOutside in Philadelphia, According to Restaurateurs | Eater

"A short drive from Bartram’s Garden is West Philadelphia’s Baltimore Avenue where you’ll find an astonishing variety of restaurants: family-run Thai-Laotian spots, bustling Indian places with loyal fans, and cafes serving gluten-free brunches all within a few blocks. Dahlak is one of Palmisano’s top picks; part lively bar, part outstanding Ethiopian restaurant, it’s been drawing folks from all over the city for three decades now. The best part? The chilled out, open-air patio at the back, where strings of lights glow after dark, and you can settle in with a beer and an enormous platter of injera heaped with tongue-tingling meats and veggies to share." - Vox Creative
