Sabrina's Cafe - Italian Market

"Sabrina's Café operates severallocations in and around Philly, including one at the Italian Market, one in the Fairmount section, and one in Powelton Village near the Drexel campus. Its outpost in the Italian Market is always busy, especiallyfor Sunday brunch. That's because the food is fresh and affordable, the portions are huge, and the brunch menu promises something to rave about for every kind of eater. The cafés each serve lunch and most serve dinner as well. The Italian Market location offers outdoor seating, which makesit great spots for people-watching. The Powelton Village spot occupies a stunning turreted Victorian corner house."

"Brunch at Sabrina’s in The Italian Market is a Philadelphia institution—almost as much as running up the steps at the Philadelphia Museum of Art . Clusters of friends and families huddle outside, rain or shine, to wait for a table in the cozy space and a plate of thick-cut challah French toast with cream cheese, bananas, and vanilla bean syrup. The restaurant is so popular it's spawned other locations around town, which are also worthy of a visit if you can't make it to the original." - Devra Ferst
