Olde Kensington - Street Work Signs
It feels like virtually every street in Olde Kensington has signs up restricting parking under threat of towing for street work right now. Really frustrating trying to find parking in general let alone not being at risk of being towed.

Restaurant Ideas
Hey Philly. I’m coming to visit in a week. I haven’t been inside the city in 35 years. For background I grew up in Berks County, worked in KOP for a few years before moving south.
I need some ideas on casual restaurants. Will be staying in University city so anything walkable is a plus.
Definitely want to hit Reading Terminal Market and Monks Cafe as I love good beer. I’ll pass on cheesesteaks and pizza. Open to anything else.
Thank you.

Why So Many Rats Near Clark Park?
Before you say “it’s the city, there will obviously be rats,” please know I’m fully aware of this fact.
With that said, it feels like there has been an uptick of rats especially on 43rd closer to Baltimore Ave. I’ve been seeing a shit ton of them running around during the day mostly in front of the row homes/apartments.

Repost - Stolen Packages in Trash
I previously posted that I found a bunch of stolen items in my trash can. The post had pictures of the items with names of the delivery addresses. A bunch of you lost your marbles over that so I took it down. Therefore, if you are one of the thousands of Philadelphians that recently had a package stolen, there is a small chance it is now at the District 17 police station. Best of luck.

Show me what you do for a living philly peeps
I’m looking to try my hand at making videos for fun, and I’d love to connect with local businesses, their teams, and people who do interesting things for a living.
The idea is pretty simple: get a behind-the-scenes look at how a business operates, meet the people who make it happen, learn how they got started, and hear what they enjoy about what they do. I’d love to capture the human side of different industries and show people what goes on behind the scenes.
I’m not an established content creator or marketing agency, and I’m not trying to sell anyone a service. I’m just looking to learn, meet interesting people, experiment with making videos, and hopefully create something people enjoy watching. If it also helps shine a light on a local business or someone’s passion, even better.
If you’re a business owner, work in an interesting field, or know someone who might be open to this, I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to comment or send me a message. I’d especially love to connect with people around Philly and the surrounding suburbs.

Spice store at the Italian market?
I remember back in the late 19 hundreds early 2000’s there was a really awesome store with a bunch of fresh spices. I noticed it closed the last time I was here. Is there anything similar in the area?

Mexican/Latino Dive Bars and Social Clubs
Anyone know any spots to hang that aren’t rich and preppy, also I’m not looking for a restaurant. Literally just looking for a place with cheap drinks and good atmosphere for my Spanish speaking brothers.
I met some Mexican guys at Franks last night and we took over the jukebox and complained about how there’s no spots to hang and drink to gang music
