Episode 42: Memorial Day Madness, $700 Burgers, and some tasty "Down the Shore" news

Delicious City Philly

We switch up the format a little bit for episode 42, but you get all the same tasty deliciousness still packed in there that you know and love. For this episode, we invite Steve Martinho, editor in chief of the hit new food zine, Stereo Flavors, that’s taking Philadelphia by storm, and he talks to us about his origin story and why it has become so successful so quickly. But, the phone doesn’t stop there. We’re talking about Memorial Day, Pizza Freaks, properly cooked halibut, and where you need to go while at the shore.
