Cacia's Bakery Philadelphia

Bakery + pizza = Yum

""Cacia's Bakery" in Philadelphia is a local gem. I like their pizza most of all, esp. the pizzaz. My mouth has been watering just writing this article..."

This place is a local gem. You haven't really been to South Philly until you experience Cacia's Bakery. They are known for their pizza but also do Roast Pork on Sunday's, Calzones, and just really good bread, plus a few other items.

There is no other pizza I have ever tried that is similar to Cacia's. First off, let's start with the options for Pizza. Broccolli, Pizzaz, Cheesesteak, Spinach, Cheese, Tomato, and White Pizza. You don't even look at a menu, they go so quickly that the slices are always out behind glass on those gigantic square sheets they use (it's square pizza). There is no mixing and matching, those are your options. You don't need other options. The Pizzaz is basically cheese, simular to Provel (if you know that), and some jalapeno peppers. It's not too hot and its amazing. The Cheesesteak is also great but my daughter loves the spinach! Go Green!

My mouth has been watering just writing this article. Just don't wait too long in there, there isn't anywhere to sit and it can get a little crowded. Plus I've been yelled at for taking too long, all in good fun! You need to experience this for yourself :)

I enjoy films, reading, meeting new people, and trying new things. I also love to tell stories about my travels. All in all I would say I try my best to appreciate my life and make the mos...

Laurel Hill Cemetery

I see dead people

"Laurel Hill Cemetery" in Philadelphia is equal parts public garden, sculpture park, historical campus and graveyard. It's a truly special spot...

How "Night Kitchen" get its cinnamon rolls to absorb so much butter is one of the great mysteries of Philadelphia. It's my favorite bakery in Chestnut Hill.

Too pretty to eat

"Hokka Hokka" in Philadelphia is the sushi bar/restaurant my husband and I start so many of our dates. This balance of tasty and beauty is something else.

Besides the packed schedule of shows, they are also a daytime coffee shop that opens its bar at noon. They have a great (rotating) wine selection as well!

Mummers Concerts

So local

The only reason I know about the Mummers Concerts in Philadelphia is because I lived behind the small 'park' for over 10 years! Can't get more local...
