| Hi, RC Members! |
| I’m having a hard time concentrating today, because I’ve somehow talked my father into taking me to Vetri for his birthday tonight. I’ll let you know how it is — if you do something for me: Take our super-quick survey below — we are on the brink of unveiling huge things at the RC and want to know what you think. On to the meat and potatoes of this week’s edition: We’ve got our official verdict on the new places at Piazza at Schmidts, our take on how Philly’s restaurant servers stack up, and some spicy new promos. And don’t forget to check our Restaurant Club blog every afternoon for the latest from Foobooz. |

| Through June 30th: Spice Things Up | ||
| It’s been a few months since I’ve been to Divan Turkish Kitchen, but I still dream about the creamy, tangy Turkish Dumplings. Restaurant Club members who order one of their robust entrées or appetizers (try the Turkish take on the falafel) at this Graduate Hospital restaurant will get a free glass of wine. Just mention you are in Da Club. Ends June 30th. | ||
| Through August 1st: Savory Sweets | ||
| The chef of Old City’s Privé, Peter Karapanagiotis, is going to be on The Food Network’s Chopped in August, but we get to enjoy his Mediterranean food now. Restaurant Club members who order any one of the mezze plates, a large mezze plate, or an entrée (think watermelon with feta and lavender honey or veal short ribs) will get one of Privé’s always-changing desserts (they are usually spiked with things like lavender and cayenne) for free. Mention it to your server. Limit one per customer; offer ends August 1st. | ||
