After 22 years, Carman's is closing up shop

POSTED: Monday, September 17, 2012, 2:56 PM

Hat tip to man-about-town Holly Moore, who today Tweeted about the impending closing of beloved-and-hated Carman's Country Kitchen (1301 S. 11th St.) Morning eats maven Carman Luntzel has been doing brunch in South Philly before Brunch In South Philly, 22 years to be exact at the corner of 11th and Wharton. Moore reports on his Facebook page that the landlord is ending Luntzel's lease to open a pizzeria. We have enough of those, but not enough of eccentric, independent spots like Carman's, places that both embody and define the Philadelphia spirit. The last day is December 16.
