Serious Eats' Penn campus picks

POSTED: Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 12:10 PM

In honor of back to school season our buddies over at Serious Eats are lining up the best campus eats around the country. Penn alum Lauren Sloss has a lot of love for the city where she spent her undergrad years. According to Sloss: "Philly is a special city. It's got serious character, for one—being oft treated like the marginalized younger brother of New York has given it a slight chip, and a whole lotta attitude. What's more, Philadelphia is the kind of city that you have to explore a bit to really appreciate. When you do, you feel like you're in on the secret."

Not sure about the attitude part, but there's plenty to explore in and around the campuses of Penn and Drexel and her picks are pretty solid. She's into the house brewed beers and pies at Dock Street, coffee and pastries at Metropolitan Bakery and the Ethiopian offerings and al fresco beer drinking at Dahlak. And we're loving the fact that Sloss gives a nod to Koch's the one of a kind sandwich spot that specializes in gargantuan Jewish deli inspired hoagies. Take a look at all of her picks right here
