Jet Wine Bar owners taking over former Philly Kitchen Share

The slightly star-crossed commercial kitchen space at 1514 South — first the commissary Philly Kitchen Share, then, for a brief while, the proposed home of chef Tim McGinnis' American Blackboard — has new life from some near neighbors: husband and wife Jill Weber and Evan Malone, the owners of Jet Wine Bar (across the street at 1525 South) have officially signed on to open a restaurant here, ideally before the end of the summer. (The dining room will be adjacent to the kitchen, at 1516 South.) Chef Matt Zagorski, who consulted on the menu at Jet, will also lend a hand in the early going, but fulltime cooking duties will be handled by Regis Jansen, formerly of 1601 and Fuji Mountain. The still-nameless restaurant will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, offering a very vegetarian-friendly selection of "comfort food, but a little more on the high end," says Weber. They're going for a liquor license but may open as a BYOB depending on timing.
