Kade descends on Village Whiskey

Friday's opening of Village Whiskey (118 S. 20th St.) was chaotic in the way only restaurant openings can be: loud with the shaking of cocktail tins and excited babble, crowded with scenesters eager to get their first taste to brag on.
Among the proles who crammed into opening weekend was one Arthur Kade, who seized his chance to devour a veggie burger with "cheese and avocado" and meet fellow Philly celeb, Village Whiskey chef/owner Jose Garces.
Is it us, or does chef look distinctly unimpressed with Arthur's broad shoulders and most excellent opinion of himself?
Just for fun, an excerpt from Artie's post:
The glare is terrible here, so it�s difficult to type, but here is a taste of last night (Opening of new restaurant by Jose Garces (Hottest Chef in Philly who owns Amada, Tinto, Chifa, and Distrito) who was introduced to The Brand (I told him I was a huge fan of his, and that I wanted to write about how much a genius I think he is on my �Famous Blog� because he is ushering in the Tapas Appeal in Philly, and is my favorite chef and concept creator in the city), then Rouge Domination, then Mint.
Felicia, really? Don't encourage this douche and his parenthetical nesting issues.
GAG.
Barry and Neal have had their sense of humor surgically removed with blunt instruments. I would like to know what "parenthetical nesting issues" are, but I guess you have to have them to think of them. "Felicia, really"- do people talk that way in life or just on soap operas? I wouldn't know. Artie, I hope I don't catch your wickedly vicious eye. But I won't. Barry and Neal seem nervous, though.
