Could it be? Sticks and Stones?!

We first told you about Nick Miglino's plan to open gastropub Sticks & Stones at 1909 E. Passyunk Avenue � let's see � nearly 18 months ago, well before this blog even existed. The former owner of Felicia's (now Devil's Den) said back then that he was aiming for a spring 2008 opening ... then we didn't hear or see anything for a long time.

In the past month or so, though, we've been catching some rumblings of Sticks' impending debut, so we got back on the case. Sure enough, we got a bit of an update from the elusive Miglino this weekend �he secured his liquor license about two weeks ago, and is prepping to finally make this happen. But when? No date cemented yet, but he'll let us know. "It's obvious I'm in no hurry," said Miglino. "That's the understatement of the decade."
