The kitchen at The Institute (549 N. 12th St., 215-765-8515), which was originally up for an April debut, will now open Friday, July 24 at 5 p.m.

Chef Brian Bosch, formerly of the free-bread-slangin' Parc, is doing food with a Puerto Rican bent, as Institute co-owner Charlie Collazo hails from that commonwealth. Meatier options include bacon-wrapped and mofongo-stuffed (!) chicken breast topped with sofrito; hanger steak in a house marinade; pan-seared red snapper in a coconut/white wine sauce with mango salsa and mashed yams; and beef or veggie empanadas. There's also an entire vegetarian/vegan section (Living on the Vedge got a preview back in April) and a small selection of sides and desserts.

Check out the menu in full at institutebar.com.
