Here we've got a sneak peek at the lunch, dinner and "light fare" menus for Jamal Parker's Le Cochon Noir (5070 Parkside Ave.), the restaurant and music venue we featured a week back. They'll start serving pig in soft-open mode next Friday, June 4.

Wow, those seem like expensive prices... especially for the neighborhood.  $8 for a side of mac and cheese?  I'm hoping these are some huge portions & that there's always some live music going on...

And where is the BBQ.  Looks like a fairly standard America menu.  I hope the music venue is good.

Hey everyone! First off thank you to Drew and City Paper for this post and all the previous ones. I just wanted to set everyone's mind at ease! Yes the $8 sides are HUGE! Think sides that are served family style as they do at many steakhouses like Capital Grille a Ruth's Chris. One side can feed 4 people. The Exec Chef is Christopher Maguire who has pretty much proven himself time and time again in many of the local, well-known BBQ contests (1st Place Gary Maddox Rib Contest from 2003-2008; 1st Place Tom Monaghan Rib Contest from 1998-2005; 1st Place Tom Monaghan Chili Contest in both Hot and Mild from 1999-2006). In regards to the neighborhood... Quite like areas that were not so long in the past seen as "questionable sections of the city" (i.e. Northern Liberties/Temple University Area/Manayunk to name a few), the whole Parkside area is going through quite a transition as evidenced by The Please Touch Museum moving in to the area as well as the brand new Lowes/Shop Rite shopping center directly behind us, whose astounding success has been featured in a number of local and national news stories. not to mention the Mann Center across the street from us. I hope that you will all take a trip down and simply give us a chance to impress you. BTW... did i mention that Bootsie Barnes was extremely impressed with the place the couple of times he's stopped by and we just booked Beyonce Knowles' Trumpet player, Crystal Torres, to play with The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen on Sat, June 5th. Please join us!
