>> WAITING LIST
Shields Business Solutions' John Shields, who specializes in ATM and armored car services for the banking industry, is looking at mid- to late April to open this "automated convenience store" in the former Tigerlily boutique. The 500-square-foot Whiz Kid, which'll feature a selection of automated machines (coin counters, DVD rental kiosks) in addition to gadgetry for cappuccinos, hot chocolates and slushees, will also offer a (human-tended) lineup of self-serve coffees and some seating.
May looks to be the magic month for Earth, the highly anticipated Mount Airy brewpub from Tom Baker and Peggy Zwerver of the defunct Heavyweight Brewing. They're keeping their eye on the pie — a wood-burning oven is currently being installed, and Zwerver says they'll offer six seasonally rotating flatbread pizzas along with weekly specials. For beer, Baker's developing a lineup of all-new session-friendly recipes, including a low-ABV version of Heavyweight's cultish Biere d'Art.
>> LITTLE VITTLES
Vintage Wine Bar & Bistro co-owner Jason Evenchik says he needs about a week and "a couple dry runs" to open Time in the former Ludwig's Garten (1315 Sansom St.). The "updated country club" menu concept has been tweaked a bit — chef Frank Imbarlina will take a continental approach, with choices like grass-fed beef and game and seasonal items like caribou carpaccio. >> Les Bon Temps (114 S. 12th St.), from Carmine's Creole Café owner John Mims, will open on Friday, April 4.
