- A.D. chats up chef Terry White, who's opening Union Trust at Seventh and Chestnut in the first week of February. This pantheon of porterhouses will feature an inspired mixture of old-school and new-school adornments in terms of décor. In terms of food, there will be gigantic steaks.

- Kelly White is not related to Terry White, at least we don't think. If they were related, it would be funny becuse Kelz Lives on the Vedge. She continues with the whole eatin'-smart theme by chatting up Mark Bittman, who writes "The Minimalist" for the New York Times. His new book, Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating, touches on how to maintain a low-impact, healthy diet that shrinks one's carbon footprint. (Bittman's the one who sent in words of encouragement for The Week Without Meat — Day 4 recap coming a bit later today.)

- The Center City District has extended Restaurant Week for another seven days. Nikki Volpicelli has some nice picks for you in her latest What's Cooking.

- In Feeding Frenzy, I talk to the folks behind three soon-to-come eateries: Brahaus Schmitz, Ladder 15 and Oyster House.

- Freakishly powerful chocolate chews, wine glasses that Jimmy Durante would've loved, hand soap made from fry grease and the King of Online Food Trivia — all in this week's Small Bites column.
