For something laid back:

Dip Daddy

Even with the name, the offerings from this new service hold something special for everyone, but especially dads. For that special guy in your life, Philadelphians can order up a variety of dips from Chef Danny Giorgio, who has worked at Amada, Barbuzzo, Little Nonna’s and Bud & Marilyn’s, among others. The offerings span from fresh made-from-scratch dips and a selection of chips that range from rye chips to pretzel “mustaches,” all homemade. Dips range from the OG Pimento (their take on the Southern cheese) to The Buff (buffalo chicken), to the The Schmear (a variety of breakfast and cream cheese items blended into a delectable spread) and a few in between. The service delivers to most zip codes in the city and is perfect for a Father’s Day weekend treat for your dad who is staying in to watch the 76ers game, or for a late-night post-dinner treat.
