- Meal Ticket’s own Felicia D’Ambrosio takes on kombucha tea, the purported miracle drink that celebrities love and accredited medical institutions hate. I bet Flea would give you a symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) to make your own kombucha if you asked really nicely.
- In Feeding Frenzy, we’ve got details on two South Street newcomers (Novità Bistro and Café L’Aube) as well as Caffeination, a concept-y coffeehouse coming to 21st and Chestnut. (Check back here a little later for even more on L’Aube.)
- Want a new take on Jovan’s Place, the Eastern Euro bar/restaurant that’s been comforting stomachs for more than a decade? David Snyder’s got it.
- What’s Cooking guress Nikki Volpicelli graces you with info on the Southwest Center City Rock ‘n’ Run, a “big ass beer” dinner at Monk’s, an espresso workshop and more. Wondering what event merits the sentence “pair a little Howard Zinn with seitan, koniaku and yam ’shrimp’ with tofu skin”? Read on, why don’t you.
