New chef at Zinc; dealage at Caribou

Olivier Desaintmartin's Zinc (246 S. 11th St.) is getting a new chef the third week of September — Nanina Scriber, late of Alain Ducasse's Benoit in Midtown Manhattan, who's replacing Justin Bennett, now cooking with Brian Ricci at Kennett (848 S. Second St.).
Meanwhile, at Caribou Café (1126 Walnut St.), the Chopped-winning chef's other Center City establishment, Desaintmartin is is offering two bits of long-form dealage. The first is a 15 percent industry discount after 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and after 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday; it's a summer promo he's carrying into fall. The second: Through the month of September, drop $20 and you'll get an order of steak frites, plus a wine or beer. For those seeking a fully immersive experience, Desaintmartin would like it to be known that Caribou will gladly accept Euros in lieu of U.S. dollars for the deal. "I'll give the difference to my waiters [to make up] for the tips the French don't leave them," jokes Desaintmartin, a native of Champagne. "Don't they study foreign customs before they travel?"
