Cooking at the James Beard House is no small thing. It takes a lot of work (and a lot of money) to put those plates on the table–as chef Jeffrey Power and his crew from Dettera would be the first to tell you. Here’s a quick peek at how it looks from the inside.

As lobster prices hit a 30 year-low and finding funny colored crustaceans is at an all-time high we’re starting to see the seasonal specialty all over. Though experts on the lobster glut say consumers outside of Maine won’t see price drops or specials it looks like these six Philly restaurants are bringing them to us anyway. Enjoy it while you can.

When Hurricane Irene and the remnants of Lee roared through the area most of us escaped unscathed. But to some area restaurateurs the cleanup is still underway.
Charcoal BYOB in Yardley, which was wiped out by flooding in 2006 didn’t reopen till Tuesday this time around, despite the restaurant being rebuilt ten feet above ground.

Craig LaBan wrote the year in bells for yesterday’s Inquirer, highlighting 2010′s pizza trend and the continued importance of craft beer.
As for the bells, there were only a couple of adjustments, Ambler’s Dettera went from from one-bell to two as new chef Jeffrey Power made an impact. Pizzeria Stella lost a bell as Starr’s “A-team” moved on to other projects.
Personally we were betting that Fish and Fond would find additional bells in their Christmas stockings.
Check back throughout the day and week as we look back at 2010.

The menu of Dettera in Ambler menu is more fall than a weekend of football. Everything from Roast corn and poblano soup to the braised beef short ribs just screams fall.

Craig LaBan likes the wine selection at Ambler’s Dettera but he finds lots of other things to criticize.
Dettera suffers from such a host of serious issues, from ill-prepared servers to a kitchen that struggles to put out anything remotely worth the menu’s inflated prices, I wonder whether it has the substance to give its style staying power.
