If you'd like to work in an industry where it's possible to go from the dish room to the boardroom, a career in hospitality may be right for you.
Polishing your act with the right look and skill set will help you mix up a potent career in the restaurant, bar or nightclub scene.
Knowing what skills are in demand, as well as how to cook up a succinct, attractive resume and what to expect during the interview process, will help you stand out.
Jarred tomato sauces have come a long way, in terms of quality and variety. Several popular brands were put to a taste test. Which is the best?
We were a Ragu family. That is, we were until my mother saw a commercial in which a man held up a jar of Prego and said, "The first ingredient in Prego is tomatoes," then held up a jar of Ragu and said, "The first ingredient in Ragu is water." My mother switched her loyalty the next day.
It seems more than a little unfair that it took until last week to open what's being called the first free-standing sidewalk cafe on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway (at 16th Street) - a full century after the grand slant was cut through Philadelphia's checkerboard grid to make way for, among other things, the casual joys of French cafe culture.
Reach for the reds - and a few whites.
That glistening pinot grigio you enjoyed at last summer's beach parties may, come Halloween, taste thin and inconsequential, particularly with cool-weather meals. Similarly, light and fruity reds and rosés can wilt like sunflowers, yielding to sturdier cousins like cabernet sauvignon, zinfandel, nebbiolo and shiraz.
The burritos, tacos and quesadillas are finally rolling out at the new location of El Fuego (2104 Chestnut St., 215-751-1435), which opened about 10 weeks behind schedule because of assorted construction delays.
At Shundeez Restaurant in Chestnut Hill, Mohsen (Maurice) Lavasani brings the taste and culture of his Iranian homeland to the table. All you need to do is see the joy on his face as he parades through the restaurant offering crisp rice scraped from the bottom of the cooker at the end of the evening. You understand that this wafer-thin treat is part of his rich heritage that goes all the way back to ancient Persia.
Stinky cheese lovers, do I have the drink for you. It's not the usual brawny red, which conventionally matches power with power, but so often feels like a showdown of big personalities. I'm sipping at something far more complimentary, a sweet but beguilingly complex moscatel sherry from La Cosecha.
Two chefs team up to create a charming Pennsport BYOB, offering fare that's seasonal, local and fairly priced.
After toiling behind the lines of two of the city's most ambitious restaurants, Morimoto and Striped Bass, the two chefs named Nick - and their new restaurant called Nicholas - come with understandably high expectations.
