My Secret Food Tour with Arielle was wonderful! I learned so much about the city of Philadelphia and of course some really good Philly inspired food! Arielle is so knowledgable about Reading Terminal Market and all of the other places we visited. It was such a pleasure to be shown around and get to try delicious foods that are off the beaten path.
