What's next for Horizons? Vedge.

Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby, who recently announced they're pulling the plug on their vegan restaurant Horizons (611 S. Seventh St.) after service this Saturday, July 2, are officially talking about their new Philly venture: Vedge (1221 Locust St.), a bar/restaurant they're characterizing as the diametric opposite to LA's temple of meat worship, Animal. The old Deux Cheminees space (at one time the target location of Stephen Starr corporate chef Chris Painter's Il Pittore) will feature a vegetable bar, where chefs will plate up cold fare like olives, antipasti and even vegetable "charcuterie" boards. Adajcent will be the hot kitchen, designated for roasting, grilling and smoking. Jacoby will still handle dessert ("fruit forward, but still sinful," we're promised). Vedge will also feature craft beer and wine lists and a selection of cocktails. Expect a "late summer" debut.
