What's old is new in Philly

Monday, March 25, 2019
This weekend on FYI Philly we visit some old spaces springing to life as new places. We look inside the renovated Bourse. We visit Craft Hall which has taken over the old Yards Brewery. We welcome back another year of Philly Wine Week, get a women's history lesson in old city and taste some new offerings at the Bok Building. Plus, a recipe you can make at home and some clean eating ideas from people who have seen the results. FYI Philly airs Saturday at 7p and Sunday night at midnight after Action News.
