Best of Reading Terminal Market

History junkies have the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, art enthusiasts have the Philadelphia Museum of Art and animal lovers have America’s first zoo.





Recipe of the Week: Picnic Chickpea

Sautee four large, diced shallots over medium–low heat with a tablespoon of olive oil until they become translucent and brownish (stir frequently and scrape them up off the bottom so they don’t burn). This will take a while, but they are better the longer you let them caramelize. Next, chop up some carrots (about a cup) and throw those in there.


Where to Picnic?

Rittenhouse Square Kelly Drive: Fresh air, beautiful view of the Schuylkill,  tons of grassy area to sit.
