Philly was voted in the top 5 in a best food category and it wasn’t for cheesesteaks.

We apparently make one hell of a pizza as well.

Travel + Leisure magazine readers voted Philly America’s fourth best city for pizza. On its website, Philly also ranked in the top 5 for museums and cultural attraction in separate “best of” categories.

“History meets pie at Pizza Brain, the “pizza museum” in Fishtown that serves thin-crust pies and houses more than 500 pizza-related artifacts,” according to the website. “Meanwhile, at purist favorite Nomad Pizza, they slice your pie at the table, to prevent sogginess, and show a movie every Sunday night.”

Other than Chicago, which ranked first, the top 5 consisted of cities along the northeast corridor.
