Are You Ready for 2010?
New Year’s Eve is right around the corner, and we’ve got a guide to celebrating (and eating) without breaking the bank. Before the year ends, the region will see quite a few restaurant openings; we’ve got the scoop on what’s opening when and where, and what you’ll see on the menu. Critic Joy Manning headed to Zahav to try the new menu and try some never-before-seen ingredients. Lastly, Philly Mag’s annual Philly Cooks event is on February 23rd, and we’ll be bringing you some great deals and fun opportunities leading up to the event. First up: This year Restaurant Club members get a write-in vote. (Yippee!) Click here for more details. — Ashley Primis, Food & Lifestyle Editor
