Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Called the Cradle of Liberty and Birthplace of the Nation, Philadelphia was where both the Declaration of Independence was signed and the United States Constitution. The City of Brotherly Love was settled first by Dutch, British, Irish, Scandinavians and Germans. Italian immigrants created what would become the famous Philly cheese steak and the pepper pot, while Americans of German decent developed regional wonders like scrapple, shoofly pie, the soft pretzel, and “plain and plenty” dishes like the chicken pot pie. Over the years, Philadelphia has grown in cultural and ethnic diversity, with large Puerto Rican, Jamaican, Asian, and Hispanic populations adding richness to the city’s stellar culinary scene.
