NOW OPEN: Fuel
Q102 DJ Rocco Cima's Fuel (1917 E. Passyunk Ave., 215-568-FUEL), has opened for business down Passyunk way. The chef-turned-radio-personality didn't have too much time to talk when we popped into the space � lots of deep red and purple, with seating along either side of the narrow space leading back to the counter/kitchen � as he was booking through lunch orders like a cook possessed (it's basically a one-man show behind his counter).
The deal on the food is this � Cima offers an array of salads, paninis, wraps and snack-type items (canapes, shrimp skewers, wontons, etc.) all of which fall under 500 calories or less. Cima came about the caloric rundown based on estimates from The Daily Plate. (Note that the cal estimates for the sandwiches/wraps do not factor in your choice of bread.) Here's a little more on the concept back in August; full menu here or on their Web site.
Hours: Sun.-Thu., 11 a.m.-10 p.m.; Fri.-Sat., 11 a.m.-midnight.
[...] Fuel has opened at 1917 E Passyunk. Q102’s Rocco Cima is the man behind the 500 calories or less storefront. [Meal Ticket] [...]
