Fri Sat Sun goes BYO-optional

Friday Saturday Sunday, one of Center City's longest-running restaurants (at 21st and Rittenhouse for 36 years), has just started allowing patrons to bring their own wine without corkage. Not beer or spirits.

A few years ago, owner Weaver Lilley struck a blow for sanity by pricing all bottles at $10 over his cost.

"I wasn't making a fortune off wine anyway, so why not?" Lilley told me.
