Four Things In Philadelphia Not to Miss This Month
New on Resy:It’s time to check out one of Philly’s newest dining destinations: Terra Grill in Northern Liberties from celebrated chef Laurent Tourondel. In more good news, Mei Mei Philadelphia has reopened in Old City after a dramatic renovation, and El Chingon from chef Juan Carlos Aparicio is newly bookable on Resy.
Mark the Calendar: One of Philly’s most singular food experiences returns June 14, when Le Virtù’s La Panarda brings a day-to-night parade of more than 40 courses and 10 wine pairings to East Passyunk. Chef Andrew Wood will show off the range of Abruzzo’s coastal, hilly, and mountainous regions. Over in Fishtown, Suraya pastry chef James Matty and Joey Baldino — of Zeppoli, Palizzi Social Club, and Bomb Bomb Bar — team up for a pastry pop-up on June 6 featuring sheep’s milk ricotta zeppole and pine nut-apricot cornetti.
Plans for Pride: Philly goes big for Pride every June, and if you’re planning to spend time in the Gayborhood, book a table at Darling Jack’s Tavern — owned by Marcie Turney and Valerie Safran, a power couple in the LGBTQ community — or the long-running piano bar Tavern on Camac. On June 7, Bridget Foy’s hosts Short Stack Saturday, a family-friendly Pride Month brunch with a performance by Mister John (the kids’ music impresario beloved by Philly families), a build-your-own pancake station, and proceeds supporting Attic Youth Center.
Wine Time: June is shaping up to be a big month for wine lovers. Leo kicks things off with an intimate French wine tasting with cheese and charcuterie on June 10, followed by Fond’s new monthly wine pairing series on June 16 with a focus on Greece. Vernick Wine’s Loire Valley dinner with wine director Michael Brakebill happens June 17, while on June 23, wine pros Chris Liu and Sande Friedman ask the question, “Maybe You Don’t Actually Hate Chardonnay?” at Bloomsday.
