My Philly Finds – Modern Graduate Hospital Rehab

Melissa | September 28th, 2008 | No Comments »

Courtesy of Mike McCann and Prudential Fox and Roach, check out this spectacular find on a hot Grad Hospital block. 1534 Montrose offers gorgeous modern finishes and a great location, close to public transportation (the Broad Street line) and within minutes to city amenities, shopping and services. I also love the location because while you can walk to Rittenhouse and the subway, you can still find a parking spot too! The kitchen has custom cherry countertops, a serving bar, stainless steel appliances, a glass tile backsplash and a beverage sink. The backyard is well-done with attractive pavers, spacious and easy to keep up. The bathroom may be my favorite room in the house, with gorgeous white marble and a separate stand-up shower and tub. This home also comes with all of the furniture included, even offering a built-in home theater system!

My Philly Finds – Best Cake!!

Melissa | September 28th, 2008 | No Comments »

Now I know that I’m making a big claim by calling any particular baked good the best in the city, but I can confidently argue that the cake we had last night for Razvan’s birthday (Happy 30th!) was the best I’ve ever had!

Whoever decided to put a whole cheesecake inside a chocolate cake with creamy frosting and chocolate shavings is my kind of girl! Check out the picture below to show how we demolished this treat from Potito’s Bakery, 1614 Ritner Street, 215-334-2996. Try it and you’ll be addicted!

Best Cake EVER!!

And I invite you to argue with me – what’s your opinion on the best cake in Philly??
