Rex 1516 sneak peek this First Friday
Rex (1516 South St.), the Southern-inflected resto from Jet Wine Bar that we last mentioned in December, is plugging right along, reports Jill Weber, who's opening the spot with her husband, Evan Malone. While they just missed their target month of January for the opening, you can catch an advance bite of chef Regis Jansen's food on Feb. 3, when Rex does First Friday at Drink Philly (239 Chestnut St.). They'll pass out tasting portions of three-cheese mac (fontina, gruyere, Swiss) with roasted tomatoes and traditional jambalaya, plus pours of winter-spiced red sangria and Crane Lake Viognier from Cali, both of which "sip quite pleasantly out of plastic cups," according to the always-enthuastic Weber. The event is free and goes from 5 to 9 p.m.
