Back in May, we told you about chef Tim McGinnis' plans to kick off a catering operation and a new restaurant as part of his new gig as culinary director of Philly Kitchen Share (1514 South St.). The first half of that equation has come into focus American Meats & Provisions is the brand McGinnis and his also-a-chef brother Jason Roberts just launched. Their selection of Euro-style sandwiches is available for lunchtime catering, but the eats will also be carried at a number of local stores, markets and cafés. The first folks to carry AM&P's stuff? Our critic Adam Erace's Green Aisle Grocery (1618 E. Passyunk Ave.), of course. Check out five-sandwich lineup after the jump. Our favorite (we were treated to a couple sample-size bites recently) is the Cajun ham and cheese, layered with ever-so-smoky homemade tasso.

The rooftop garden at Noble (2025 Sansom St.), which was but a glimmer in Grace Wicks' eye back in April, is sprouting in full force, so much so that chef Brinn Sinnott has organized a series of "roof-to-table" dinners for the rest of the summer. CP's own Neal Santos recently stopped by to take a peek at the operation for Meal Ticket. So dope that access to the garden is literally a ladder leading up from the kitchen.

Hoagie stop Cellini's (1710 E. Passyunk Ave.) closed recently, much to the chagrin of several commenters on our Sandwich Tour 2010 post. But now we're hearing that the space will become a prepared-foods store, with "mid-October" set for a target debut. A partner in the project tells us that most of the details are still up in the air and that the building needs a bit of pre-opening TLC; we will have more info for y'all soon, so stay tuned.

This is actually sad. I love all the new life on the Avenue, but I wish the old-school merchants would spruce up their stores to appeal to all the fresh blood. With just a little TLC, Cellini's really could have held their own as a specialty Italian market/deli and would be a great complement to Green Aisle.

Balance and symmetry: dividing lines are clean and even Color infusion and definition: the contrast between the whiteness of foam and the darkness of the crema. and the intention of the design is obvious and clear Use of space: the design fills the cup in an appropriate and pleasant way. The design neither crowds the cup, nor leaves it feeling empty or unfinished. there is harmony between the size of the cup and the size of the design. Overall impression: drink is free of spill marks and cup is appropriately full of liquid. General aesthetic appeal and subjective appreciation.

Jean-Luc Fanny's Café L'aube, which the Ivory Coast native opened at 1512 South close to two years ago, is growing north, with a second location at 1631 Wallace Street. Its tentative opening is slated for "summer 2010." (Hey, that's right now!) More details soon; in the meantime, read Trey Popp's March 2009 rave about Fanny's specialty. Crepe lovers of Fairmount, rejoice! (h/t @FairmountNews) UPDATE [3:48 p.m.]: Just touched base with Fanny to grab a couple more details. This new space will be two rooms, and bigger than original. Same exact approach as the original café, with the exception of the waffles here they'll be served Liege-style, which is denser/chewier than the Brussels style he presses on South. Fanny is aiming for an August 15 opening.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CAFE FACADE WILL NOT BE THE GREEN CURRENTLY VISIBLE! A TRUE MIX UP IN PAINT COLOR! I JUST SPOKE TO THE OWNER AND THE INSIDE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!
Thank god I won't have to go to Mugshots anymore.

Just a second to the earlier review -- this is a complete gem of a cafe. The crepes and waffles are made to perfection, and, coupled with the coffee roasted in house, quickly becomes addictive. I couldn't be happier to see it opening in a neighborhood like East Fairmount!
