First Look: Fitler Dining Room

Fans of Pub and Kitchen, missers of Meme, likers of food in Philadelphia get excited, Fitler Dining Room (2201 Spruce St.), the latest venture from Ed Hackett and Dan Clark is opening tomorrow. We stopped by the 22nd and Spruce spot to check out the makeover and take a peek at Rob Marzinsky's menu and we've got to say that it's looking good.

The window flanked dining room is airy and elegant with cafe tables, banquette seating and lots of shiny subway tile and marble. There's also a pretty sweet peek-a-boo cheese fridge. 

But the real draw here is Marzinsky's menu. As a veteran of Stateside, The Diving Horse and Pub and Kitchen, he's put together an opening menu that relies on carefully sourced ingredients and refined technique with nods to France (think potato gnocchi with Burgundy snails, butternut squash, hazelnuts and chartreuse butter and Ozark Mountain Berkshire pork with boudin blanc and coco beans en cocotte).

It's also worth a mention that Marzinsky has been doing a bang up job documenting Filter Dining Room's opening on Instagram, so if you're into that kind of thing, go ahead and give him a follow
