Philadelphians have been eagerly awaiting the return of Susanna Foo to Center City Philadelphia. The chef who owned the highly acclaimed Susanna Foo on Walnut Street for 22 years, closed her eponymous restaurant in 2009. In July of 2014 she announced her return to Center City and now there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Though the accompanying photo shows there’s still a ways to go before Susanna Foo opens SUGA at 1720 Sansom Street, there is news to report. The restaurant has a Facebook page as well as a slick new logo. And on the Facebook page, the restaurant has teased out several of the dishes that will make the final menu.
