By Candis McLean Verified| The Infatuation Verified Few shops maintain the gold standard of banana pudding like The Sweet Life Bakeshop on South Street. The cheery shop has hits by Stevie Wonder playing and adorable, sprinkle-topped cupcakes in flavors like strawberries and cream to vegan peanut butter and jelly. But it's the banana pudding—with more of a light, whipped pudding texture than the standard heavy base—that's the main event here.

By Candis McLean Verified| The Infatuation Verified Manayunk, until now, had one great pizza shop (looking at you, Pizza Jawn) and an ever-growing roster of so-so ones. But with its deliciously light yet charred, thin-crust, New Haven-style pizza, Eda’s is primed to crack the list of the neighborhood’s go-tos. With classics like margherita and specialties like potato and rosemary or clam with thick-cut bacon on the menu, it can be hard to choose which to go for. But every pizza we’ve tried is a good, cheesy bet.

The Infatuation
The Infatuation is a prominent online restaurant discovery platform founded in 2009 by Andrew Steinthal and Chris Stang. Originally a blog, it has grown into a comprehensive guide for dining recommendations in over 35 cities worldwide. Headquartered in New York, with additional offices in Los Angeles and London, The Infatuation focuses on providing personalized dining experiences through its website and mobile platforms. The platform features detailed restaurant guides and curated lists, emphasizing authentic recommendations from real staff members rather than automated suggestions. Users can receive tailored dining options based on their preferences or occasions. The Infatuation also engages the community through events like the NYC EEEEEATSCON, a food festival that blends culinary experiences with music. In 2018, the company expanded its influence by acquiring the Zagat brand from Google, reviving it in print. With a strong social media presence, The Infatuation serves over three million monthly users seeking dining recommendations.
