Deuce

The Main Line Gets Fresh and Local

Posted by Ashley Primis on May 13th, 2009

The new-this-year Bryn Mawr Farmers’ Market celebrates its opening day on Saturday, May 23rd, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Located off Lancaster Avenue between the Bryn Mawr train station and Luddington Library, the market has lined up a small but really nice collection of vendors, including West Chester’s Shellbark Hollow Farm (which makes a chef-favorite goat cheese), Birchrun Hills Farm (which will sell pork and veal as well as cheese), the Northeast’s Wild Flour Bakery (whose rolls are used for the Rouge Burger), and produce growers from Lancaster and Glen Mills. The Saturday-only market will run through the fall; look for special giveaways and a plant sale on opening day.

Deuce Departed

Posted by Kirsten Henri on April 7th, 2008

Deuce, the first restaurant to open up in Liberties Walk, shut its doors last night.

Drew Lazor has the whole story over at the Clog and it’s shaping up to be a juicy one.

Laura Vernola, the owner, in a particularly classy move, is admonishing her defenders (and there are many over on the angry-on-the-inside NoLibs message board) to take it easy on Liberties Walk developer Bart Blatstein. While it’s easy to hate Blatstein on the basis of his hideous aesthetic sense alone, Deuce has been through at least three good chefs (Scott Schroeder, Greg Ling, Todd Lean) in two-and-a-half years. Staff turnover is usually a sign that something is awry – something that has nothing to do with the landlord.

Eating Alfresco Is Going To The Dogs

Posted by Foobooz on June 1st, 2007

The howl of Joe Sixpack has been heard. April Lisante of Philly.com covers the trend of dog friendly dining that seems to have sprung up this spring.

Call it a case of Le Bec Fido, but something doggone tasty is happening this spring at restaurants from Rittenhouse Square to Northern Liberties to the Main Line: customized canine menus for pampered pooches.

First Wednesdays Wine Tasting Group

Posted by Foobooz on December 5th, 2006

The Metro’s In The Loop highlights a group that is right up our alley, the First Wednesdays Wine Tasting Group. Every first Wednesday of the month the group, consisting of 20-30 somethings, heads out to a venue and tries different wines. This month they’re headed to Deuce to sample a selection of champagnes. Although usually casual they’re spicing it up for the holidays requesting cocktail attire.

Best Of Philly Hitting Newsstands

Posted by Foobooz on July 27th, 2006

Best of Philly

Philadelphia Magazine’s Best of Philly is hitting newsstands now.
CBS3 has video in the best of food category.
Among those mentioned are Boyz in Cherry Hill, which wins for “Best Strip Mall Dining.” Deuce earns the nod in “Best in Cheesesteak Updated” for their cheesesteak eggrolls and Marchiano’s Bakery in Manayunk gets “best tomato pie.”

Yesterday PhilaFoodie treked down to the National Constitution Center to get a look behind the scenes at the making of the Best of Philly issue.
