Hotel[edit]
Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel 1225 Vine St Philadelphia, PA 19107. Ring the buzzer to the right to get buzzed in first time, and you can use your room key after that once checked in. The hotel requires a physical debit/credit card for a deposit for incidentals.
Health protocols[edit]
We will provide masks, hand sanitizer, and covid tests at the meeting. Please stay home if you feel sick.
Lunch options near the venue[edit]
- Reading Terminal Market: Lots and lots of options here, though it gets crowded and seating becomes scarce. Alison's faves are Herschel's Deli (turkey rachel), El Merkury (bean and cheese pupusas), Miller's Twist (breakfast pretzel and a lemonade), DiNic's (roast pork sandwich with broccoli rabe and provolone, better than a cheesesteak imo), Tambayan (Filipinx place, lots of good options), Little Thai (lots of good options), Deiner's BBQ Chicken, and vegans might like Luhv's Vegan Deli.
- La Colombe Coffee: Not actually lunch, coffee and pastries, but it's the closest good coffee.
- Waterfront Gourmet: Immediately next door to La Colombe, has decent sandwiches and really good smoothies
- Chinatown: Many options. Alison's picks are Nan Zhou Hand Drawn Noodle House, Spice-C, Penang, or Vietnam restaurant. There's also a million bubble tea places.
Group dinner[edit]
Dim Sum Garden, 1020 Race Street. 0.3 miles from the hotel. 5:30 pm on Saturday.
