Every Wednesday, Meal Ticket pokes around the food blog world to see what's simmering.
- On Monday, Foobooz broke the horrible news that Souf Philly luncheonette Shank's & Evelyn's is shuttering their 10th Street shop on April 30 and movin' on up to a Center City location. Mike Klein at The Insider adds to the story, reporting today that:
[Pam] Poppa's mom, matriarch Evelyn Perri, has sold the building and wants to relocate to Center City. They have expressed interest in 120 S. 15th Street, the vacant sandwichery just above Sansom and across from the Union League. Poppa says the partnership that brought a Shank's location to the Northeast last year has dissolved.
- Apples and Cheese, Please attempts to replace Oreo Cakesters with a slightly more healthy cocoa snack cake. If it has flaxseed and whole wheat in it, that counts as a vegetable, right?
- Foodaphilia wants to know if there are any designers or web-savvy folks who are willing to lend their aesthetic eye to her site in exchange for edibles. We would have helped if E hadn't snubbed us on her Best Philly Food Blogs list for blogs.com. Are we bitter? Maybe a little � but in a refreshing way, like Angostura in a Manhattan!
- Not only did Kitchenplay make their own scrapple, they attended ScrappleFest at The Reading Terminal Market last Saturday. Their personal fave? Leidy's offering, with its notable sage and less salt.
- Joe Sixpack reminds us on Beer Radar to fill out a Beer Week feedback survey. Not only will your fond memories (of how much loot you dropped on comestibles, liquid and otherwise) help shape next year's event, you will be entered into a drawing for free tix to Opening Tap 2010.
Ouch! Would a batch of Oatmeal Pies get me back in your good graces?

I kept wanting to try Shank's & Evelyn's, but I wasn't sure it was even real. Oops.
