ICE CUBES: Rachael Ray filming in South Philly

The garden @ Wharton Street and E. Passyunk Ave.

As stated in Icepack several weeks ago, the Rachael Ray Show crew earmarked Aug. 30 for the date of its Great Philly Grill Off and the opening of a lush community garden on the corner of Passyunk and Wharton. And despite literal hell and high waters, they stuck to the date. NOTHING STOPS RACHAEL RAY. Before the storm, her production crew stapled day-glo green posters to trees that have since fallen. They've spent the days since the rains ceased nailing down and putting up the last bits of board and metal and, as of this morning, is welcoming crew members and studio trucks into a parking lot next to La Veracruz Taquiteria on Washington between 9th & 10th streets. Joining them are the limos of potential guest starts such as Patti LaBelle, Boyz II Men, and very possibly ESPN’s Erin Andrews. Haven’t seen any of the marquee names yet. But will report back in the next Icecube Illustrated on Thursday.
