NOW OPEN: Sycamore BYOB
 |
Lovely, leafy Lansdowne, just outside West Philly in Delaware County, celebrated the opening of new BYO Sycamore (14 S. Lansdowne Ave.) this past Friday. Located in Regency Caf�'s original space (that coffeehouse and music venue moved to 29 N. Lansdowne Ave.) Owners are Stephen and Jennifer Wagner and chef Meg Votta, a CIA alum who's worked locally as exec chef at West Chester's Simon Pearce, the Joseph Ambler Inn and Feast Your Eyes Catering.
Votta's menu is refined American � plates include a pancetta, onion and goat cheese tart; crab cakes with brandy crema and mustard chive sauces; a pork shop with a port reduction, figs, gorgonzola and sweet peas; and from-scratch tagliatelle with three-meat gravy.
One cool featch at the BYO: a proper cocktail list. All you gotta do is supply the booze. Drinks here include the Peachtree (whiskey, peach nectar, black tea, mint); the Farmer's Market (gin, grapefruit juice, basil, lemon curd, seltzer); and the La Paloma (tequila, grapefruit soda, lime juice, salt rim).
Hours: Wed.-Sun., 6-10 p.m. Menus after the jump.
