\"Market_1\"<\/a>I only visit Philly once a year for the Buyers Market of American Craft<\/a> trade show (this is where gallery owners come from all over to order artwork from more than 1200 talented artists – <\/em>me<\/em><\/a> being one of them)<\/em>  and one of my favorite stops is the Reading Terminal Market<\/a> (located right across from the convention center)<\/em>.  Steve and I faithfully eat breakfast and lunch there everyday during our stay.<\/p>\n

\"Market_3\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

There are loads of wonderful choices<\/a> when it comes to eateries; as well as fresh meats, produce and baked goods.<\/p>\n

\"Market_4\"<\/a> \"Market_2\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

We always indulge in Amish baked goods and I have my share of homemade soft pretzels (a personal weakness of mine)<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Market_5\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

Cheerful piano tunes played by a local fill the air of one of the dining areas.  Something about hearing live music in unexpected places always makes me smile.<\/p>\n

\"Crepes_1\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

I also discovered my new favorite breakfast entree this year… a strawberry, banana, honey & cinnamon crepe from Profi’s Creperie<\/a>  (just saying it makes me salivate)\"Crepes_2\"<\/a> <\/em><\/p>\n

See what I mean… pure perfection<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
