For the third year in a row, the South Philly commercial corridor is hosting a hot chocolate crawl. Restaurants, coffee shops and bars along the Passyunk Avenue are serving their spins on the seasonal drink Saturday, Dec. 14, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The cocoa fest, created to help businesses recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, sold out in 2022 and 2023.
