My bestie, Kaitlynn, knows me well. When I came to visit recently, the first place she took me was to an ice cream shop: The Scoop N Scootery. They deliver, but on this day, we went in to check it out.

After eating at Mezzogiorno, literally right across the aisle, I went to Baba Bar to kill some more time.

A Mediterranean eatery with a menu crafted by Nicholas Elmi. Baba Bar features flavor and spices reminiscent of the coast, offering small plates, spreads and wraps; a perfect light meal before a flight. The mezze (small plates) include a traditional selection of hummus, babaganoush, stuffed grape leaves, Greek salads, roasted vegetables, tabbouleh and much more. Entrees include skewers and kebabs.Simply find an open seat, sit down, order from the touch-screen menu, swipe your card, and food will be delivered.

I don't know what everyone else does during a long layover but I can tell you that I seek out the best food.

Chef Stalin Bedon brings a menu featuring thin-crust, Neapolitan-style pizzas with artisanal toppings to the terminal with Mezzogiorno. The individually-sized pies are baked at nearly 700 degrees for the perfect crunch. Diners may choose from a list of composed pies or build their own. The pizza menu is complemented by a selection of housemade meatballs, antipasti, light entrees, and snacks. The wine list pulls heavily from Southern Italy and the beer selection focuses on regional ales and lagers, including Tröegs HopBack Amber from Hershey, PA and Yuengling Traditional Lager from Pottstown. This sleek modern Italian eatery has the feel of riding through Milan on a yellow and chrome Vespa. The main palette elements include sunshine-yellow backpainted glass, a sleek black bar top, zebrano wood walls, and polished stainless steel accents.

It was a cool concept - you look for an open seat, place your order on the screen, even run your own credit card and then food magically is delivered to you.

When I made a trip to Philadelphia, I tried the two famous cheesesteaks back to back: Geno's and Pat's.
