Philly’s Most Iconic Restaurants
Restaurant accolades like Michelin stars and James Beard awards are nice, but no one knows Philly like Philly. On Feb. 1, a restaurant will be crowned with the "Icon Award" at The Tasties, the homegrown culinary award ceremony that celebrates the best of our city’s food and drink industry. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Eli Kulp, host of The CHEF Radio and Delicious City Philly podcasts, partner at High Street Hospitality Group, and one of the creators of The Tasties. They dish about what it takes to be an iconic restaurant in Philadelphia, the surprising names that didn't make the cut, and the immersive experiences that will raise the bar for the second Tasties awards ceremony and afterparty next month.
