Philadelphia's a city whose culinary heritage is steeped in tradition, particularly the Pennsylvania Dutch and Italian-American traditions, but the new wave of Philadelphia restaurants (led, apparently, by the two most famous chefs you have never heard of) is led by some very interesting Latin American-Asian fusion restaurants. Shovel this on top of the
deep culinary heritage Philadelphia already boasts and you get what is obviously the most underrated cuisine city in America.
