The latest on American Sardine Bar

Back in February, we popped into John Longacre's American Sardine Bar (18th/Federal) to find it pretty much ready to go (that's the street-level bar above). So what's the latest on the still-unopened venue from the South Philly Tap Room crew? Longacre tells Meal Ticket he has a zoning hearing on Wednesday, May 18 to approve kitchen and commercial operations on the second floor of the space. Though he could launch the ground floor for business whenever he wanted (it's ready to go), the team has decided to wait until all the elements are in place before officially throwing the doors open to the public. In other words, we'll have to wait until late May at the earliest to grab a pint here, assuming ASB's hearing goes smoothly.
