It's time to take your Philadelphia experience to new heights.
56 floors high at the Four Seasons Hotel, to be exact,
where I was given a tour of the presidential suite.
This is where the fancy folk are.
It's over 2,000 square feet of luxury with a kitchen and bar space, spa-style bathrooms.
You know what? I need a robe.
You can't be in a room like this and not put a robe on.
I've been taking a little bath right over here.
It's not that kind of show, though.
They always say you've got to dress for the job you want.
This is the job I want.
I want to be at the Four Seasons as a guest forever.
A gigantic closet, family room.
The living room for all of your fanciest friends.
Cozy bedroom.
I mean, I knew we were in the clouds, but this is another level.
Look at that pillow, watch.
Oh my gosh, these would be pillows I'd be putting in my bag on the way home.
And views of Philly as far as the eye can see.
I can see the stadiums from up here.
It should be no shock that everything on the in-room dining menu is utterly delicious.
Who has in-room dining that's this good? Nobody.
All the forks and stuff, they're fancy.
You start on the outside, you work your way in, right?
My favorites being the tuna poke bowls.
Oh my gosh, I love that.
The cioppino seafood stew.
These divine lamb chops.
Watch this.
Look at that.
And this gorgeous peach cheesecake.
Look at this.
You feel like a queen up here.
Why would you ever leave your room?
I'll lay back on a fluffy pillow somewhere.
Someone could feed me those grapes and then it'll be the best day of my life.
Speaking of feeding myself grapes.
It is what it is.
We'll see you here for your staycation.
Just like get away for a little bit and have everybody else bring you your stuff.
I'm going out for this life, so I don't want her back in.
The deck on the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts has views of Broad Street and City Hall.
It's now open for select happy hours and rentals.
So I got food, I got booze, and I got views.
How do you like that?
You can check out what William Penn is up to while sipping on a variety of cocktails
and munching on snacks by Jose Garces.
A watermelon and tequila cocktail up here just feels right.
People are getting loaded up here.
Drinks are music themed like the tequila blackberry cocktail called The Chorus
and the peachy crescendo with blue curacao and ginger beer.
Sweet and a little spice, the ginger beer hits.
And this is all Garces, so you know it's good already.
I loved the eggplant tapenade, the chorizo skewers.
I could eat 700 of these.
And white chocolate caramel popcorn.
But wait, there's of course more.
I got what he just said to me.
He just said, do you want a snow cone to wash it down?
Yes, they have snow cones.
Adult ones.
If somebody asks you if you want a snow cone, you say yes.
Jessica Boyington.
How do you like that, Willie?
Cheers.

It's not a snow cone unless you get...
If you don't get brain freeze, did you eat a snow cone?
I mean, this reminds me, I feel like I'm on the beach.
