Moshulu is a stunning South Seas-inspired restaurant housed in a 100-year-old, 394-foot, four-masted sailing ship. Moored at a pier near Penn's Landing, it's within a short walk of Philadelphia's historic district. Its several dining rooms are elegantly decorated with rattan chairs, cane furniture, dark mahogany, and Polynesian artwork. And the kitchen, headed by executive chef Ralph Fernandez, churns out creative, delicious "American Contemporary" dishes that will keep you coming back for more. The seasonally open Bongo Bar and Deck is a fun place to dine on warm nights, and live island-style music is performed three nights per week at this outdoor venue.
