Support Philly Restaurants
|
A great way to support Philly restaurants while staying safe is getting takeout.
And what’s even better than supporting local businesses while enjoying delicious food? Winning free dinner once a month for a whole year!
To keep Philly restaurants thriving, the Center City District has organized a Takeout Contest where participants can submit their takeout receipt to receive twelve $50 gift cards at select Center City restaurants. The contest runs through March 31st and two entrants are selected each month.
Also, check out the CCD’s Eat & Drink page to see a fantastic list of all the Philly eateries to try. A link to each restaurant’s website and its address and phone number are organized for your convenience.
So, the next time you don’t want to deal with the hassle of cooking and cleaning, just order some takeout and enjoy your full stomach knowing you helped a business in need.
And don’t forget the Block family’s every week go-to for amazing prepared takeout family meals, Bacchus Market at 23rd & Spruce (and pick-up in the Northwest as well). We love their Weekly Menu.
I’m hungry. Have a great weekend. Stay warmish.

CBT Open Houses on hold.
Safe private showings continue.
|
The City Block Team strives to be a leader in the real estate community, and keeping our clients and community safe is always a primary goal. So our open houses remain on hold until further notice due to the substantial rise in COVID-19 cases in the Philadelphia area.
All of our listings remain available for safe, private showings at your convenience, and we are always available to show.
So if you planned to hit an open house this weekend, just let me know ([email protected]). Or, if you already have a buyer agent, please contact them, and we will set the showing right away, at your convenience.
Thank you for your understanding.
