Check out the most passionate sports crowd in Philadelphia. You won’t find them at Citizens Bank Park but rather at Barristers Bar during Buffalo Sabres playoff games. It’s a fun crowd who really gets into the Buffalo Sabres. And looking at the way the Ottawa Senators have been handling the Sabres, you may only have a few more chances to check out the phenomenon.

Monday is often a day off in Philadelphia’s better restaurants but there is always something good on the menus at Philadelphia’s best gastro-pubs. How about a wild boar burrito from the South Philadelphia Taproom, Tuna in mango, jalapeno salsa at the Standard Tap or a meatloaf sandwich at the Royal Tavern. There may not be table cloths but the food is 1st class.
