Heading to the City of Brotherly Love for a night of noshing. (A Philly dining story is coming in June. Really.)
I just got off the phone with Daniel Stern who owns Gayle restaurant in Queen Village and his new hip eatery Rae in University City. It's near 30th Street station in the city's Cira Centre building.
Daniel is a very cool guy and he puts innovative twists on classic dishes. I admired his cooking a few years back when he was at Le Bec-Fin and recently fell hopelessly in love with his smoked rabbit nachoes when he was a guest chef at the Meals from the Masters Celebrity Chefs brunch last month at the Bank of America building. (Yep, rabbit, as in bunny rabbit. Don't knock it 'till you tried it.)
We've got late reservations at Amada, chef Jose Garces's excellent Spanish tapas restaurant in Old City that I've been to several times. (Some friends are dying to check it out. ) But first, I'm herding the gang to Rae for a quick bite of rabbit nachoes or maybe the risotto fingers....
