Kevin Sbraga, a longtime member of the Philly chef scene who made a splash when he won the seventh season of Bravo's Top Chef, opens his eponymous eatery in the Symphony House at Broad at Pine this Saturday, Oct. 15. The 65-seat restaurant, which we first detailed in June, will work off a $45, four-course prix-fixe setup, with a la carte at the bar; there will also be an option for an eight- to 10-course chef's tasting. A few dish teasers (desserts are by Sbraga's pastry chef wife, Jesmary):

  • Eggplant Terrine with black garlic and jalapeno
  • Frisée with creamy gorgonzola and pomegranate
  • Foie Gras Soup with a rose petal relish
  • Black Cod served with bok choy and kim chee
  • Fish and Chips with an Indian remoulade
  • Clams with orecchiette and fennel
  • Arctic Char with a béarnaise sauce and celery root
  • Meatloaf with royal trumpet mushrooms, mashed potatoes and a bacon marmalade
  • Chicken with sautéed Brussels sprouts and candied sweet potatoes
  • Lamb with broccoli and sesame granola
  • Mascarpone Mousse with coffee granita
  • Apples with caramel and mille-feuille

Sbraga's dinner hours will run Monday to Thursday from 5 to 10 and Friday and Saturday till 11. We'll have more on the space, rendered almost exclusively from repurposed design materials, soon. For now, ring 215-735-1913 to try for opening-weekend ressies (buena suerte).
