We're obviously children of Generation Blog here at Meal Ticket, but you absolutely MUST pick up our brand-new spring food issue IN PRINT in addition to perusing it on the web — it's one beautiful book, thanks to the hard work of CP's Reseca Peskin, Allie Rossignol, Alyssa Grenning and Neal Santos, not to mention illustrator Joel Kimmel, who did both the outside and inside covers. Cop yours immediately!
Here's a rundown of what we've got for you inside.
- Adam Erace visits Stephen Starr's uber-hoppin' Dandelion to take in the 'ello-there-guvnah charm of the smash-hit Rittenhouse Brit-pub. There's kitsch and drama aplenty behind the whimsical curtain at 18th and Sansom, but our critic discovers that Englishman chef Robert Aikens is putting out some inspired Anglophilic fare.
- The prices are so very right at 20th Street's Yamaki Sushi, but with the budget-friendly menu comes some inconsistent fish. And yes, we tried a "Cheese Steak" roll in case you're curious!
- In Feeding Frenzy, digest details on the brand-new Farm and Fisherman (opening tonight) and several to-come projects, including Hop Sing Laundromat and Mica.
- Laurel Rose Purdy has your food/drink agenda on lock in What's Cooking, sharing details on this weekend's stout brunch at Johnny Brenda's, next week's five-chef collab dinner at The Corner and more.

- Brion Shreffler visits four local firehouses to learn about our Philly firefighters' cooking and eating traditions. He learns that the meals go well beyond the stereotypical chili-and-cornbread image and just how important their camaraderie is, both in the field and in the kitchen.
- That's-a spicy multiple variety of meat-a-ball! Adam Erace digs his experiences at Marabella Meatball Co., and even provides some South Philly-style advice for ordering the vegetarian marinara like a true paesan'.
- Our food/drink events column What's Cooking has details on Monday's izakaya pop-up at Khyber Pass Pub, the 10th annual Philly Cooks! competition, Delicatessen's first birthday party and more.
- In Feeding Frenzy, we've got details on 943, Makiman Sushi, Kitchen at Penn and more fresh food news.
- In Agenda, Eric Schuman previews this Sunday's "The Whats and Whys of Mushrooms" workshop in New Hope.

For more than 10 years, Food & Wine has scoured the country for original, creative and talented chefs to determine its annual lineup for the magazine's "Best New Chef" award. This year, they've turned it around on you to lavish one region-specific standout with the title of The People's Best New Chef. Philadelphia's savvy exists within the Mid-Atlantic realm, where four very familiar chef faces can be found among six other guys and gals from the region. Food & Wine urges voters to decide based upon genuine dining experiences in candidates' establishments to judge the food, and nothing else.
Philly chefs in the running include: Pierre Calmels, classicFrench chef, formerly of Le Bec-Fin and now owner/operator of Bibou; David Gilberg of Northern Liberties' Portuguese BYOB Koo Zee Doo; Italian chef Jeff Michaud of Osteria; and Blackfish's seafood-obsessed chef/owner, also hailing from Le Bec-Fin and Vetri, Chip Roman. Show your Philly boys some love! The winner will be featured in the July issue of Food & Wine. Get a little more cozy with your candidates and most importantly, vote here.
