Former Oyster House chef Greg Ling's new gig

Greg Ling left the chef gig at Oyster House (1516 Sansom St.) in October, but not before getting a good look from our Trey Popp and quite a few others. Now he tells Meal Ticket that he's been hired as the new chef at Paul, the neighborhood BYO at 1120 Pine run by sisters Effie Boukidis-Schweich and Christina Jimenez. He starts this Saturday, and will introduce a new menu (more seasonally focused, he says) a week from then.

Are they still going to keep the prix fixe midweek meals?  I've been meaning to get over there one of these nights and don't want to miss the deal.

The Tuesday neighborhood appreciation will stay the same.

I guess that means Paul is open.  I wanted to try it a few weeks ago and attempted to make a reservation several days in advance.  Their under-construction website doesn't have a reservation function.  They aren't on Open Table.  I sent an email but got no response.  I called and left a message but got no response.
