Loading ...Marigold’s O’Shea To South Street
Posted by Foobooz on June 4th, 2009
We guess we should have seen the writing on the wall. The Craigslist ad for a two-story West Philly BYOB. Steve Cook and Michael Solomonov doing a barbecue restaurant on South Street. A chef with a southern resume already on the payroll. But somehow it never dawned on us that Cook and Solomonov would be selling Marigold Kitchen and bringing chef Erin O’Shea to the South Street barbecue place, which we now know will be known as Percy Street Barbecue. But that’s what has happened.
Michael Klein has the details including what the new Marigold Kitchen will be like.

O’Shea/Solomonov/Cook collaboratory meal on August 1? I am willing to wish a fond farewell to their Marigold if it means all of them coming together for some insane Mexican/Israeli/Virginian super meal.

Im down too but $65/person 2-course “feast”??? Isnt that pushing it a little?
I really hope it was a typo from Michael Klein.

We’ve just received the official press release. It will be a SIX-course farewell dinner on Saturday, August 1 for $65 per guest. And of course, it’ll be BYO too.

I think this is so tragic. Marigold is my favorite restaurant in Philadelphia…and I doubt there will be much vegetarian love at the new BBQ place. I will miss the $30 Sunday dinners. Sigh.

I am also a little sad about this. I love BBQ, but I don’t like it messed with, and O’Shea is too talented to just leave it alone. This smells a little like Django.
