It’s A Shame About Rae
Posted by Foobooz on December 1st, 2008
We worry for Rae. The Kleinsider had a note Friday about Rae being closed for the weekend but today we notice OpenTable isn’t accepting any reservations for any upcoming dates. Daniel Stern is planning to move Rae to high atop Liberty Place Two but that isn’t scheduled to happen till around Labor Day.
What’s going on at Rae? [The Insider]

UPDATE: Philly.com has more information. Rae is now a lunchtime only spot and only for December. After that Daniel Stern will be concentrating on moving Rae to Center City and retooling the current Rae space for a new concept. [The Insider]

Ate there Wednesday for lunch. The place was pretty busy and the employees were upbeat and friendly. There were know indications that the place was closing. Maybe the employees didn’t know?

Before spreading rumors did you even try calling? This blog would be like saying that Blackfish is closing because two weeks ago they were offline on opentable.com website because they were experiencing technical difficulties. Come on foobooz. Get real.

Rae is very excited to be moving to the 37th floor of Liberty Two at the end of December – in its place in the Cira Centre Dan Stern will possibly be opening a more casual M-F Lunch place. Rae is due to reopen in it’s new location in the fall of ‘09.
