Christopher Kearse's Will opening Friday
In one of the speediest turnarounds we've seen here at Meal Ticket, Christopher Kearse's Will (1911 East Passyunk Ave.) will open this Friday, making good on his promise to whip a vacant Passyunk storefront into shape for his solo debut by summer's end. The clean, gray-and-choolate stage is now set for Kearse's style of precise, driven cooking; opening menu items include poulard with goat's milk gnudi; scallop with uni creme and wild fennel; and Atlantic skate with clams and scapes (see what he did there?). We've got the full menu (with some sick-sounding desserts) after the jump. Need additional convincing? Read Kearse's gripping bio and peep this video of his meticulous plating, both by Drew Lazor.
