Philly is filled with very French spots, including the serene Rittenhouse Square, which has a central park that is the perfect spot to relax, read a book and nibble a baguette. One of the world's finest French restaurants, Le Bec Fin, is here. This is also a serious foodie town, with two amazing food markets and an astounding selection of fine dining options.
