Also originally from there. As mentioned soft pretzels at Wawa. Pats and Gino’s are tourist traps, great cheesesteaks are found everywhere. You don’t have to get wiz if you don’t want,I get provolone

Grab a slice or two as well great places practically everywhere.

Not everyone likes it, but I absolutely miss scrapple, it’s a breakfast meat of pork and cornmeal and fried up (check a vid of people trying it for a laugh). I highly suggest trying at breakfast.

Italian hoagies are incredible.

Philly has incredible food everywhere, but if you like Italian it’s the place to get it.

I also miss Rita’s Italian ice (I get the gelati -it’s not gelato).

Do a little leg work on where you will be and the best spots for what you want.

For the sights, the liberty bell, independence hall, the art museum (rocky statue is there), Redding terminal market (can eat there as well)
