Wishing Well lands its liquor license, plans on pouring shots for charity

We told you that boyhood pals Chris Martino and Carmen Cappello had taken Ninth and Catharine off Pat Bombino's hands back in November. We told you about the menu (including the egg-n-scrapple-soaked SHAME burger) and we dropped the official opening date (April 5). What's left to say about the Italian Market public house that is Wishing Well? After all this time, Martino and Cappello finally have their liquor license. "It's been a long time coming," says a relieved Martino. To go with the booze, Wishing Well is looking to do some good. For every "Well Shot" purchased by drinkers, the bar will donate a portion of the proceeds to charity. "We're still trying to figure out which ones the local-er, the better,â notes Martino. Salud.
