So my latest foray into Philadelphia was at A.Kitchen. Where there is a kitchen, and some tables, and lots and lots of waitstaff. (side note: there was this blond kid who looked exactly like the bad guy from the Karate Kid (original) and I wanted so badly to say, "Sweep the leg, Johnny!" but I was pretty sure that he would think I was crazy so I refrained)

- A.Kitchen is part of AKA Rittenhouse where many celebs stay.
- I saw Gerard Butler hanging outside AKA Rittenhouse a couple years ago. He looked like a scruffy dude - even though I was expecting King Leonidas.
- The food was really really good.
- Make a reservation as it is quite small.
- Have dessert - really totally awesome. Best poundcake I've ever had. No, really. I'm serious.
Don't:
- Wear black, as the cloth napkin left white lint.
- Be freaked out about the portion size - it's actually filling and you won't feel sick afterwards.
