At Event 360 we work hard and play hard. We travel the country going from one event to the next, and in the process we stumble upon some really great places in the cities we work. Be it a restaurant, music venue or book store (to name a few), we have found some must-see attractions and we want to share them with you. Today, our own Joanne Harrington, Philadelphia 3-Day Field Marketing Coordinator, shares one of her favorite local Philadelphia hot spots. Next week, our Susan G. Komen 3-Day team will be in Philadelphia and we know where they will be!

What makes this place worth stopping in? After an early morning for a Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® fundraiser, my friend took me to a hidden treasure that I never knew about. Apparently, I was the only local that did not know about Max Brenner’s.
This chocolate haven was just what this weary girl wanted. The Mexican hot chocolate gave me a boost I most needed and the savory lunch was comprised of a delectable panini. My friend and I finished our lunch by splitting a waffle covered with scrumptious ice cream and, of course, chocolate! We were already stuffed before it was served but when you’re in Max Brenner’s, your mind believes it is mandatory to continue eating chocolate under any and all circumstances.
