- David Snyder spends some time at Prohibition Taproom, uncovering a great beer and grub selection along the way. The gastropubby spot from the owners of nearby Café Lift are doing a stellar job of drawing people into the not-quite Chinatown, not-quite NoLibs "Loft District" area of the city.
- On Tuesday, James Saul teased his piece about the sale of Kingdom of Vegetarians and the upgrades at New Harmony. Here's his full report. Party-hardy vegans should mark New Harmony's Jan. 26 Chinese New Year Celebration on their calendars.

- Usually-newsy City Paper staff writer Isaiah Thompson makes his first appearance in the food section with his mindblowing lineup of five Chinatown bakery delicacies — all of which can be yours for less than one dollar. Pictured above is number three on the list, the fried taro dumplings at Bread Top House.
- Some newsy bits of note in this week's Feeding Frenzy — 943, BREW, Chipotle, the new-look White Dog, etc.
- Nikki Volpicelli is something like an unflappable robotized database of excellent food and drink events, the only caveat being that, unlike a robot, she is very nice and capable of displaying emotion. And good taste: This week's What's Cooking fills you in on all the out-and-about goodness, from tonight's Philadelphia Brewing Co./Earth Bread + Brewery collab to a fab-sounding beer and wine dinner at Caribou Café.
