Fare Magazine Issue 18 (Philadelphia) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. Philadelphia is the birthplace of the United States, a city told through street art that spans rivers and rowhomes. Here hustle and heart drive restaurant revolutions, yet the sandwich reigns supreme.
Each issue of Fare magazine is a 200-page deep dive into the culture of a single city, led by locals. Rather than a guide, it’s a timeless collection of stories from those who know the city best.
Fare magazine is a publication exploring the heart of a city through its food, history, and community. Fare magazine is published bi-annually. Fare introduces its readers to a single city and lets its locals do the talking: taking you down backstreets and through forgotten histories, exploring neighborhoods and local institutions, and doing more than just taste the food on offer. The result is a portrait of city life and culture more thoughtful and nuanced than the dreamy conjurings that typify touristic material. Fare magazine is not a conventional travel guide; it is designed to excite and inspire, but also to educate, and each issue begins with a crash course in the city’s phenomena of place, and ends with a full glossary of local terms and histories referenced within.
