In Season: Wineberries

Every Wednesday, Meal Ticket pokes around the food blog world to see what's simmering.

-- Adam Erace at Blogalicious hips us to lavish locavore chef Jim Burke's newest juicy treat at James: wineberries.� Burke "bejewels his foie gras terrine over brioche with honey-duck jus" with the raspberry relative, whose season will be over by the time you finish reading this sentence.

-- The Illadelph gets hot and bothered over a serious deal at Butcher & Singer... let's just say burger whores should make a lunch reservation this very minute.

-- Grub Street Philadelphia has the menu for Fuel, a everything's-less-than-500-calories eatery cheffed by a deejay, coming to East P'unk Ave. September 10.

-- The brothers DiBruno bury a sweet 20 percent-off coupon in their Queso Files post on Why America is Awesome.

-- In anticipation of their 150 year anniversary in 2010, McGillin's has added a new 7-draft tower downstairs, says Joe Sixpack on Beer Radar.� Joe has the current lineup, including a line devoted to family-friendly root beer.
