Make sure to stop by Tommy DiNic's for a roast pork sandwich with sharp provolone and broccoli rabe! If you're in the mood for something sweet, grab a cannoli from Termini, ice cream from Bassett's, or a donut from Beiler's!

If making the trek to Pat's and Geno's, you should swing by the Italian Market for a glimpse of South Philly history. 9th Street between Christian and Washington are full of street vendors and shops with meats, cheese, pasta, chocolate, and much more.
