    Zama Sushi — On a (Celebrity) Roll

    Zama Restaurant, a cozy and elegant sushi bar located in Rittenhouse Square, gained notoriety in Philadelphia shortly after opening in late 2009.

    “It All Starts With The Bread”

    It all starts with the bread – Liscio’s Bakery thinks so, and we tend to agree. Founded in 1994 by James Liscio, the bakery and its bread quickly rose to success.

    Jon Runyan – From Lineman to U.S. Congressman

    We’ve had a close relationship with NFL player-turned-Congressman Jon Runyan since he came to play for the Eagles in 2000.

Hashtag Multimedia President Craig Kaplan connected with Runyan in his first season as an Eagle, quickly securing him a deal with Chevy that landed the big [...]

By the end of the year, he had all that and more. “Sunday is My Day,” a book detailing Fryar’s path out of addiction through faith, was published in [...]
