The Industry gets a fair amount of its industry cred from the portraits of Philly food and drink heavyweights tacked up on the walls of the dining room. But those folks ain’t all just pretty faces. Starting Tuesday, November 27, owners Dave Garry and Heather Gleason and chef Pat Szoke will host their first “Off the Wall” event, which will bring the fellas from Iron Hill–Paul Rutherford (pictured) and Chris LaPierre (not)–down off the wall (literally) and into the dining room for a collaboration dinner.

“Many of the photos on our walls have a fun story behind them,” says Szoke. “The idea behind our ‘Off the Wall’ series is to have our colleagues come by and tell their stories while guests are enjoying their great food and/or drink.”
