    Ah, I thought Levine was moving into NoLibs? Manayunk isn’t convenient for me but probably a smart move for him. Port Fishington is has a real glut of restaurants and bars right now.

    Levin is still looking to open a NoLibs spot, but after his bbq in Manayunk. At least, that’s what I’m hearing.
