In October, health-centric mini-chain Fuel launched a line of “Dream” smoothies infused with CBD oil, the first of its kind in Pennsylvania. The new drinks are available in three flavors (Green Dream, Berry Dream, and Orange Dream) and can be purchased in stores and are available as a catering item. CBD oil can also be added into existing smoothies to help consumers manage anxiety, stress, and depression. Additional items that incorporate CBD will be added to the menu in 2019.

After an extensive renovation, the Bourse, a landmark building circa 1895 and a member of the National Register of Historic Places, reopened in November as a world-class food hall. The Bourse, which is located across the street from Independence Mall, now houses 30 artisanal vendors serving up delicious food and drinks ranging from authentic Chinese dumplings to gourmet grilled cheese to grain-to-glass spirits.

TruckBux, an app that enables diners to pre-order from food trucks and pay with a credit card, is launching a new catering feature in early 2019. Via the app, planners will be able to browse a selection of food trucks that are available for events in and around Philadelphia. Planners can even book their preferred vendor directly through the TruckBux app, which includes ratings, photos, menus, and pricing for each truck.
