Amada adventures in Philadelphia

Philadelphia sizzles with activity at night, and a good way to see the sights and get around is with a charter bus, coach bus, party bus, mini bus, passenger coach or school bus rented from Party Bus Philadelphia. Go for a night out on the town with a Philadelphia party bus, as you sip cocktails, hear live music, dance the night away or do your own thing. For a great party bus destination, head down to Amada in Philadelphia.
When you walk into Amada, you can’t help but feel a certain aura of energy and excitement. The restaurant’s design invokes the essence of a traditional Spanish tapas bar while simultaneously exuding a hip and stylish Bohemian or European vibe. The buzz from happy patrons is highly contagious, leading party bus diners to feel right at home. The space is divided into two main areas, the bar area, where you can enjoy a selection from Amada’s extensive wine offerings, all of which are available by the glass; and the dining area proper, where conversations at lantern-lit tables seem to be in rhythm with the restaurant’s flamenco-influenced electronic soundtrack. Both areas are perfect party bus destinations in their own right.
Over the bar hang real, 18-month-cured Spanish Serrano hams. Barrels of sangria fill open cabinets behind the bar. We recommend the blanco, or white sangria. Small elevated tables, down the length of the bar, are great for casual meetings, or party bus gossip. Grab a seat and enjoy a few of the bar’s famed Pedro Almodovar-themed cocktails. One of the most popular is the ‘Bad Education’, an orange mojito, while snacking on the delicious charcuterie, featuring superb, cut-to-order meats and divine Spanish cheeses, all served with complementary garnishes. And while Amada, which means “loved one,” is an authentic Spanish tapas restaurant, its extensive menu consists mainly of small dishes, and is a highly recommended choice for a complete dinner.
There are more than 60 tapas to choose from, varying from the traditional tortilla espaƱola, Spanish olives and warm fava bean salad, to the edgy, foie gras flatbreads and artichoke and spinach empanadas ensuring that there is something to fit every taste on the party bus. The charcuterie is excellent. The European hand slicer behind the bar produces plates of Pamplona-style chorizo, salchichons, lomo embuchado and Serrano ham that will melt in your mouth. Party bus diners should not forget to try the paprika- and garlic-dusted Spanish octopus, grilled and skewered diver scallops, crab-stuffed piquillo peppers, a signature green plantain empanada (mentioned above) and roasted pork with white beans. Tapas style dining means sharing is encouraged, with most tapas coming in portions to feed two or more., making sure that everyone on the party bus gets a taste.
