Laurel Restaurant

You know you are with your best friend,when you realize that you will likely have expired meter parking violations, but think it's completely worth it.
Tonight as we have done for many years Lisa Lukasiewicz Welch and I find a fantastic place to share a pre-Christmas meal in Philadelphia 
This year we were fortunate to get a reservation at the #1 restaurant in Philadelphia, Laurel. This French restaurant located in the heart of South Philly is owned by my childhood friend Kristen Elmi and her exquisite and talented husband, Nicholas(America's top chef winner)
Lisa and I were beyond blown away with the level of perfection we experienced in food, presentation, and service throughout the 7 courses. The soft as cloud ricotta gnocchi with table side grated white truffle. Omg
Truthfully everything was spectacular.
I am sure A Michelin ⭐️ will be on the horizon.
Wishing continued success to Kristen and Nicholas who are truly living their dream each day.

But for me, laughing out loud with my bestie is one of the greatest gifts I have not just during the holidays but all year. Love you Lis💖
