What You Can Expect at a Di Bruno Bros. After Hours Event

I talk a lot about things you can do with groups in Philly. But for the years I’ve lived in Philly, there was one event that had been ~on my list~ for ages but I never had the chance to go to… until this summer! My friend Kelly chose the Di Bruno Bros After Hours event for her birthday this year, and my girlfriends and were v excited to be a part of it.

Di Bruno After Hours Event group event

To give you the basic gist: the Di Bruno After Hours events give you and your friends the opportunity to rent out a Di Bruno store for the night. It’s currently available at two of their locations, the Italian Market shop (930 S. 9th Street) and the Franklin shop (834 Chestnut Street). The Italian Market can hold 8-16 people, and the Franklin is better for bigger parties, holding 14-24. It costs $60-$70 a person (+ gratuity) for a two hour party, depending on the location and the day of the week.

How many people can attend Di Bruno Bros After Hours

We went to the Italian Market (cause, obviously), and, in addition to our two mongers, Dan and Keeth, there were 12 of us to take on the experience.

So now, the fun! The store is fully closed to the public except for you! It’s BYOB, so we each brought our own bottle of wine because, again, obviously. When you arrive, there are some bites out for everyone to try. From there, your cheesemongers start bringing out crazy fun and unique pairings featuring various accoutrement (cheese, charcuterie, oil, antipasto, vinegar, condiments). Everything we had was really good, and it was fun to learn the stories behind products you never knew existed in the store. But the best thing? You can try… ANYTHING. IN. THE. ENTIRE. SHOP.

That brie you’ve been eyeing? Correct. The special sauce on a high shelf? Get it out. The pistachio Nutella like spread? They will open it all and let you and the group taste. It’s so cool.

When you’re done trying everything in site, it’s time to shop. In addition to a free gift (we each got a baguette and a cool chocolate bar), you get 20% off everything in store. Each attendee gets rung up and paid for their own ticket/hauls, and they do ask you if you want to add gratuity – so keep that in mind! We all went home with tons of delicious things (and I’m sure all the wine we drank had nothing to do with that! 😉 ).

Tonight was the best feeling of trying something n Tonight was the best feeling of trying something new. ⛳️ (I’m now looking up golf puns and I love how many have the word “putter” in them. 🥹🖤). 

My gal pal @calisonx and I took a ladies beginner golf clinic at @linwoodcc tonight. We both had absolutely never played golf past mini golf on the boardwalk… so this was fun & new. The late summer weather was simply stunning & on top of that, our class included THREE glasses of wine. 😅🍷

It was fun to get a new outfit (duh) and be in a social place that’s not a bar. My dad thinks this is where I will meet my future husband so let’s all send me some good vibes for that. 😉

I’m excited to take another class & learn more. 🏌🏻‍♀️Are any of you golfing girls? Would love to hear your tips on how to get into it (and/or meet your husband at the golf course.) 😉

What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Je What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Jersey gals for a little theatre (thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus!). My mom, sister, and I met to see @thelionking at @academymusicphl and it was simply *phenomenal.* 

We both found quick weeknight after 5pm parking at nearby lots ($16!) and had time for dinner & @vanleeuwenicecream before the play. 

The show is better than you could ever expect - the actors are just so talented (especially young Simba & Nala! The best part was watching the little kidsss enjoy it, too (three little boys in front of us were raising their Simba doll merch up at the end- so unreal 🥹). The show is so worth seeing while it’s here (now through 9/10!). 

A huge thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus for the beautiful Philly night out. 🖤
