Posted by Foobooz on 11th August 2009

SupperWhat’s up at South Street’s Supper? Lots.

Grub Street reports that owner Mitch Prensky will be kicking off lunch in late September. Additionally Prensky moved his monthly Sunday Supper prix fixe family style dinner from August 2nd to this Sunday. He’s also offering the chance to go shopping with him at the Headhouse Square farmers market in the AM in preparation for that night’s dinner.

Happy hour is also going strong with half-priced appetizers and drinks, weeknights from 5 to 7pm. And although Supper isn’t quite in Center City, it will be participating in Center City District’s Restaurant Weeek with an impressive menu.

Supper’s Deviled Eggs Surprise

Posted by Foobooz on 6th July 2009

supper_eggs

We admit that we weren’t personally that excited for the 12 different kinds of deviled eggs available at Supper’s happy hour last Wednesday. But the sheer energy of those who were that excited got us in the door. Well that and the $3 cans of Sly Fox.

But we have to admit we did enjoy all the varieties we chose and so did Mac & Cheese. And she wasn’t alone. 1080 deviled eggs were served up.

The deviled eggs will be available through July with a rotating menu of four and a Sly Fox beer can for $6.
