| Shank's Original chicken cutlet with rabe and prov |
Every Wednesday, Meal Ticket pokes around the food blog world to see what's simmering.
- Unbreaded pays a visit to the new, uptown Shank's Original and finds that you can take the chicken cutlet out of Souf Philly, but you can't take the Souf Philly out of the chicken cutlet (or the all-gal staff.)
- The former Valentino on the Square space will become Cicchetteria in October, reports Michael Klein at The Insider. Chef Dan Murphy, late of the Chelsea Hotel in A.C.,� will throw down "fun, shareable-type food, including pizzas."
- Over at The Restaurant Club, Victor Fiorillo susses out the romantic origins of boutique tonic waters Fever Tree and Q, and locates the elegant anti-malarials around town.
- Grub Street's Kirsten Henri gets the lowdown on Di Bruno's upcoming-but-not-until-the-New-Year wine bar in the former Pronto Space on Ninth Street, from owner Emilio Mignucci.
- It's always a good idea to check in with Chowhound and take the pulse of those avid eaters. This week we've got a lively thread on Philly Restaurant Dishes You Dream About � much like this week's Snack Time,� it seems the Italians are dominating our food fantasies.
Oh....those gnocchi. thought I'd gone to heaven!!!!
