1. I would place the BST co-op under a single supervisor, who feeds them all their assignments. I'm perfectly happy to handle the amount of tasks I was given, but it often got confusing what the priorities were on them, since they were coming from Mari, Scott, Joy, Andrew, Jack, and/or Lubna while she was here. I think it would have been easier to figure out the priorities if they all came from one mouth.
2. Alright, food. Now we're talking my talk. I know my way around Philly's restaurants.
For lunch fare: Square Burger. No questions. Nice little quiet burger shack up in Franklin Square, over at 6th/Race. Great burgers, fair price, and some ridiculous lemonade (I'm so glad they finally added a large size, I used to finish mine before my burger was done on a regular basis) and if you're feeling particular disdain for your waistline that day, try out the cake shake. Vanilla milkshake, caramel swirl, and a tastycake butterscotch krimpet, all blended into a single dessert that proudly announces to the world "Eh, I'll start my diet tomorrow." I've yet to try this monstrosity myself, as I find the very idea intimidating, but I feel like I've put on a few pounds just by knowing it exists. At this time of year, when it's nice and sunny, but not too hot, it's perfect to grab a burger, some fries and a lemonade, sit right next to the fountain and hang out with some friends.Plus, you can finish up with a round of minigolf afterward, and everyone loves minigolf.
Dinner: I can heartily second Cassidy's recommendation for the sushi bar (I assume she's referring to Mizu.) Also a fan of Rustica, for Pizza, up at Poplar and 2nd. I recommend getting a small pie though, servings are generous. Meredith's recommendation of homeslice, a few blocks up, by the Piazza, was also worth checking out. Han Dynasty, Front and Chestnut, for Chinese.
For drinks: I'm a fan of Nodding Head Brewery, 15th and Sansom. Some great microbrews (big fan of the grog and the "Ich bin ein Berliner Weisse") Some good songs in the jukebox, and unlike some other bars, it's played at a level where you can still hold a conversation, which is always nice. Plus, it's a great place to take a date if you want the M.A. girls to hound you for details.
