Word on the Street

What spring event are you looking forward to the most?

“Baseball. I don’t go to the games anymore, but I would like to see us winning all over again. It is the greatest thing for Philadelphia.” Edith Schmeltzer, Broad and Wolf streets

“I’m waiting for warmer weather. Then I can take my kid to the park. He can play tag instead of staying inside to play video games.” Jeff Casey, 20th Street and Snyder Avenue

Editor’s note Grief relief

am sensing a lot of anger around the neighborhood. Many of you are fuming about that property tax increase the City graciously mailed out recently. Others have reached their boiling point with the sinking ship known as the School District of Philadelphia (Farewell Edward Bok Technical High School, Smith Academics Plus and George Washington School). Of course, later this spring, some of you will be at the Pennsylvania Convention Center and Lincoln Financial Field stating why South Philly is a horrible spot for the City’s second casino. If I had solutions to all of the above-mentioned issues, I would’ve share them, but there is a better chance of someone from South Philly winning the Powerball. Too many of us let these how-can-they-do-that? situations tear our lives apart. The Readers’ Choice Awards in our Spring Guide provides a much less stress-

“Warmer weather so I can get outside to exercise more because I like to ride my bike in the city.” John Green, Broad Street and Snyder Avenue See more Word on page 12 Interviews by Greg Bezanis, Siena Mazero and John Murrow Photos by Greg Bezanis

For those craving water ice, the good news is that the first day of spring is less than a week away. With it, comes warmer days, more time in the park and the reopening of water ice stands. Look at our expanded “What’s Happening” section (starting on page 21) for a complete list of upcoming concerts, exhibits and activities. Hopefully, the Phillies will be the team that finally delivers a cheer-worthy season. Without any further delay, it’s time to announce the winner for ... Turn to page 7 to start reading.

“Pop’s [Water Ice] to open because that means spring is here, and it will be warm.” Margaret Berkowitz, 13th Street and Oregon Avenue

ful conversational piece (feel free to debate any of this year’s winners amongst yourselves). Unlike the City-related issues, the votes from you, our loyal readers, determined what 40 people, places and things made the 2013 list. This year’s group includes familiar faces, as well as some first-timers. Be forewarned: Thumbing through the Cuisine and Sweet Tooth sections of this week’s issue may cause one to unexpectedly say “I’ve got to have one of those.” Don’t fight it as you’ll be up all night saying “I should have ordered those cheesesteaks.”

Our Aim is to Beat Most Offers!

We Strive to Beat All Legitimate Written Offers

Before Bringing your items to us, take them to other dealers. Have them give you legitimate offers in writing. Then bring your jewelry and written offers to one of our locations. Although no one can guarantee with certainty they are paying the highest price for an article at any particular time, we will strive to beat most legitimate written offers.

A Note Regarding the Up To Prices listed in this Ad The condition and rarity of an item determines its price. If an item is in excellent condition and very rare it might be worth the up to price, or

even more. However, if an item is in poor condition, the value will be lower. For example, a 1927 S Quarter could be worth $7,000 in new condition or less than $20 in poor condition. The up to price reflects items of exceptional quality and rarity. Although it is unlikely you will have these items due to their extreme rarity, feel free to bring whatever items you may have and we will evaluate them free of charge.

Christian Varalli, co-owner of Scannicchio’s Italian Restaurant, prepares this year’s winning gravy.

Readers shared their opinions on 40 categories ranging from cheesesteaks to yoga classes. The votes have been tallied and it’s time to reveal the winners for the 2013 Readers’ Choice Awards.

s it gravy or sauce? Come on now, this is South Philly, and there’s only one correct answer. “It’s always gravy. It’s the South Philly way,” Christian Varalli, chef and co-owner of Scannicchio’s Italian Restaurant, 2500 S. Broad St., said. “When we had the place in Atlantic City [also Scannicchio’s], we said ‘gravy’ and people didn’t know what we were talking about.” But on this side of the Walt Whitman Bridge, Varalli is speaking from a position of authority as his Marconi restaurant is the Readers’ Choice for gravy/ sauce. The award-winning recipes have been passed down through the generations. “Our grandparents taught us everything we know with our gravy skills,” Varalli, who also referred co-owner/chef Michael Gibson’s family roots, said. Varalli said the gravy that is used on many of the dishes includes filet trimmings, meatballs and sausage. Tonight, more than 500 people have a chance to sample a chunkier tomato version of the gravy used in their gluten-free eggplant Parmesan being served at Atlantic City’s Atlantic Cape Restaurant Gala, which will benefit the Atlantic Cape Community College. Of course none of these awards — including four in the 2012 competition — would be possible without the help of a dedicated staff. “We have a very low turnover rate,” Varalli said. “We treat [the employees] well, and in response, they work

Now the McKinneys’ children are in the mix. “They do everything that needs [to be] done, just like I do,” she said of Patrick, 32, and Megan, 26. “We could be behind the bar, cooking.

The best-selling pizza at Andrew’s location is the pizzaz pizza, which is a combination of mozzarella, American, and cheddar cheeses, fresh tomatoes and a choice of roasted or hot peppers. “We have about 25 different toppings, but you can make, twist and turn any of those toppings to make your own combination,” Bob Petril, owner of the Marconi location, said. “I would say our best-selling pizza is the old-school pepperoni pizza, although people are getting a lot more exotic pizzas these days with different vegetable and meat combinations.” Other specialty pies include the bacon cheddar cheeseburger, Hawaiian, meat lovers, breakfast and even a smothered fry pizza, which aside from an abundance of french fries, includes three different types of cheese, bacon and ranch dressing. Uncle Oogie’s Pizzeria and Not Just Pizza garnished the second and third spots, respectively.

Prime time

elebrating its 75th anniversary Oct. 17, Nick’s Old Original Roast Beef, 2149 S. 20th St., has sated appetites since Nick DeSipio founded the West Passyunk eatery in 1938. Its longevity has helped it to win the top roast beef prize. “We have a minimal menu, and we use the best quality out there, which is USDA prime,” Lili McKinney, DeSipio’s granddaughter, who has run the restaurant with husband, Jeff, since ’93, expanding to Springfield in ’98 and to Xfinity Live!,

resident, who grew up at 21st and Porter streets, said. John’s Roast Pork heated up second while Tony Luke’s roasted in third.

And with that history, brings pride, especially when customers who had visited with their parents or grandparents return with their children. “We’re a family tavern that caters to families, and we love when the young ones come in because it guarantees us a future generation of beef eaters,” the Springfield

hile wait times could run up to an hourand-a-half during its busiest hours, patrons are more than willing to linger around for a seat at Green Eggs Café, which reserved top Sunday brunch destination. Owner Stephen Slaughter expanded his Passyunk Square brand, which opened in December 2009, to Northern Liberties the following year and Center City last year. “We offer a pretty fun, diverse menu — an exciting menu,” manager Pat Findley said. “Everything’s fresh and really there’s a lot of care that goes into the food when it’s made and prepared.” The resident of Broad and Reed streets also gave compliments to his servers for their knowledge of the menu that is available all-day, everyday, including 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays. “They help customers get what they want when they have a lot of different things in front of them and they can’t decide,” he said. Tempting selections include favorites, such as red velvet pancakes, crème brûlée french toast, chicken and waffles Benedict and the “kitchen sink,” which includes

lthough the category has not appeared on the ballot since 2008, Johnny Chang’s, 2601 S. Broad St., has remained at the top of the sushi chain, and owner Johnny Chang couldn’t be more ecstatic for his restaurant’s victory. “We are always happy to hear positive reviews from our customers, so to be considered the best in any category for another year is a thrill,” Chang, whose eatery claimed top ethnic restaurant (non-Italian) from 2009 to ’11, said. Since its ’06 opening, the Lower Moyamensing spot has impressed its customers with delicious sushi, which Chang claims is all for his patrons. “The key to success of any business is to satisfy the customers. It is difficult to accommodate everyone’s requests, but we try our best and will continue to do so in hopes to remain our customers’ favorite in the future,” Chang said. As for the secret to making the best sushi in South Philly, the chefs take an artistic approach. “We believe creating any food, including sushi, is an art and only those who believe in their work can create art that can be appreciated by many,” he said. “That is why we have chefs who really enjoy what they do: Creating sushi that is appealing to the eyes and, most importantly, to the taste buds.” Izumi and Hibachi 2 Go rolled into second and third places, respectively.

Penrose Diner scrambled to second, while Sabrina’s Café woke up in third.

That’s amore

ood and music undoubtedly sate some of the most sensual cravings. For Frank Borda, tending to such desires proves uniquely enjoyable, as he owns, performs at and serves as the executive chef for FrancoLuigi’s Pizzeria, 1549 S. 13th St. For its combination of quality cuisine and tantalizing tunes, readers named the Passyunk Square destination the best spot for a romantic outing. “We’re not fancy because we favor the quality of our products and music over the quantity of decorations and other elements,” Borda, a native of 10th and Tasker streets who resides in Chalfont, said of his establishment, which began as a pizzeria in 1984 and added a café a decade later. “That means great meals and performances for everyone who joins us.” The nondescript pizzeria leads to the younger area, where as many as 58 patrons find themselves charmed by Italian fare such as the Pollo Puccini, which Borda, a tenor, deems his favorite and which honors his top composer, and musical treats four nights a week. “The café is compact and I think that it and the food up the romance factor in perfect harmony, pun intended,” the proprietor, whose space regularly welcomes the Amici Opera Co. for stagings of worldfamous pieces, said. Ristorante Pesto set the mood in second, and Paradiso and Ralph’s Italian Restaurant shared third.

Buttering it up

ho won for best diner? Sorry folks, you’ll have to wait for that answer, as the category committee decided to have the popular, any-time-of-day eateries battle it out over one menu item: The waffle. While the Penrose Diner, 2016 Penrose Ave., would’ve liked the chance to defend its title, it still managed to heat up the competition with top honors in this new category. Just like 2012, the owners of the Packer Park hot spot are thrilled about maintaining their award-winning reputations. “As always, we are honored to get any kind of award, but being chosen by [the South Philly Review] readers and our patrons is the best kind of award we can get,” manager Bill Dovas said. Instead of boring patrons with plain, old waffles, the menu includes a variety of toppings starting with the basic, but not required, trio of powdered sugar, soft butter and maple syrup. Others select from the variety of fruit toppings ranging from bananas to apples that are typically accompanied by whipped cream. And there’s nothing wrong with adding a scoop of ice cream, especially with the spring and summer seasons on the way. No matter what the customer orders, service is the top priority at the Penrose. “We try to do everything right,” Dovas said. “We like to give good portions and a quality product.” Green Eggs Café ironed a second-place finish, while Oregon Diner served up third.

Getting down to business

f there were a category for restaurant with best parking, Popi’s Italian Restaurant, 3120 S. 20th St., would likely be a serious contender. Of course, the Packer Park eatery is better known as a place to enjoy a business luncheon/banquet. Popi’s has the space for parties small and big, ranging from 25 to 200 guests. The establishment consistently earns high marks from customers as in 2012, when readers voted it the best place to celebrate a special occasion while, a year earlier,

Gregarious group

W Penrose Diner topped the waffle category, clockwise from top; Ristorante Pesto, with chef John Varallo, kept patrons returning for more Italian fare; FrancoLuigi’s Pizzeria provides a romantic atmosphere for guests; and Popi’s Italian Restaurant is an ideal choice for business luncheons. Popi’s earned recognition for crab cakes. “Our food is always consistent, and I think that’s important,” co-owner Gina Rucci said. The consistency has been one of the main ingredients to Popi’s success story. The family restaurant, which opened in 1993 serving lunch and dinner with only

one room, now has several dining/banquet spaces available for its guests. Rucci said the holiday season tends to be the busiest time for the business visits. Of course, the post-funeral luncheons, unfortunately, tend to draw crowds as well. But no matter what the occasion is, Rucci is excited once again to earn high marks from the readers.

hen deciding to dine at Ristorante Pesto, 1915 S. Broad St., patrons must come prepared to have their mouths handle plentiful portions and to engage in copious conversations with their host, the Varallo family. Enough readers have already learned that lesson, selecting the East Passyunk Crossing eatery as their favorite Italian restaurant. “We fully invest in seeing our customers as an extended family,” hostess and coowner Concetta Varallo, whose husband, John, and daughter, Maria, serve as the 10-year-old establishment’s chefs, said. “I find myself blown away they would vote for us and thank them.” Guests also have found themselves moved through what Concetta calls a combination of quantity and quality.

antina Los Caballitos, 1651 E. Passyunk Ave., took the gold this year for best ethnic restaurant (non-Italian), and it’s not because of its tequila color. Known for its variety of margarita flavors — such as blood orange, guava and tangerine — and outside dining area, Cantina, inspired by the types of casual drinking establishments in Mexico, is a great spot to be as the weather gets warmer and the days get longer. General manager Renee Rowlett always orders the specials when she dines at the East Passyunk Crossing location, which has provided authentic Mexican experience for guests since 2006. “I love our new chef,” she said. “[Elias Hernandez] makes specials that are very authentic and unique. He puts a lot of heart into it.” A typical night is usually upbeat and packed with patrons, especially during its 4 to 6 p.m. weekday happy hour. “The staff likes to have a lot of fun with guests,” Rowlett said. “It’s a fun atmosphere with a lot of margaritas.” And the clientele is just as varied as the margarita options.

tensely they voted for the East Passyunk Crossing site as the top new restaurant. “I think our draw is that we are lively and fun and offer plates that are a bit different because of my Canadian background,” DeCotiis, of the 2400 block of South Bancroft Street, said of the space that girlfriend Donnamarie Motto and her cousin Billie Motto own. Seating 60, the establishment relies on local vendors and products from Canada to craft a menu laden with beloved items such as pappardelle bolognese, potato gnocchi, rice balls and stuffed artichokes. Food alone does not lure crowds, though, as beer, cocktail and wine lists and framed portraits help to up the levity. Management also is waiting for word on its application for a live entertainment license, meaning it soon could have guests nodding their heads to their meals and music. “This really is an honor because the community has been so supportive,” DeCotiis said. “Are you kidding?” Billie added. “We love our customers.” The Industry built a second-place finish, with Will BYOB easing in to third.

“We get a really diverse crowd,” Marino said. “That’s what’s great about us — it’s always a mismatch of different types of people.” The restaurant currently takes reservations during the week for parties of eight or more except during weekends. But once spring hits, don’t expect to reserve a seat. “There’s always room to hang at the bar,” Rowlett said. Johnny Chang’s fused second, and The Adobe Café spiced it up in third.

What’s stirrin’ at Guerin?

elcoming hundreds of users daily, Guerin Recreation Center, 2201 S. 16th St., has developed a reputation as an athletic and creative haven, resulting in readers voting for the Newbold location as South Philly’s top recreation center. “We have a good spot with an abundance of positive energy,” sixth-year leader Debbie Darroyo said. “That we draw so many people is great because we know they are doing constructive things.” The Northeast Philly resident oversees numerous activities, including basketball, the most popular sport, and fitness classes. A former bus depot, the 1.8-acre space, which consists of a bocce court, a clubhouse and a gymnasium, also educates students by offering homework assistance and provides cultural knowledge through a Wolf Street mural. “We’re also anticipating capital improvements and are hoping for more good news, too,” Darroyo said, adding Guerin’s involvement in a competition that will select a destination to receive an upgraded look. Guerin, named for former Councilman Thomas Guerin, who died two years prior to its 1958 construction, has proven so popular that the administrator has needed to tell space seekers that she cannot accommodate their requests.

ith nurturing instructors leading various classes daily, students feel at home at Wake Up Yoga, 1839 E. Passyunk Ave., voted best place to take a yoga class. “It’s kind of like ‘Cheers’ in yoga,” Corina Benner, its director, said comparing her studio to the hit TV sitcom’s setting, “where you come in and people are kind and friendly to each other. The former day trader was unhappy buying and selling securities in the New York Stock Exchange, so she moved back to Philly and commuted to New York to teach yoga, which she has practiced since 1992. “I realized yoga was the only thing that made me happy,” she said. “I didn’t know if it was enough to make a living, but I didn’t care because I was a really good waitress.” After teaching at gyms, Benner opened a Fairmount studio in 2002, and when students requested a South Philly locale four years ago, she expanded to East Passyunk Crossing. In addition to specialty classes, such as prenatal and mommy and me options, it features vinyasa- and yin-based sessions made for all proficiencies, and the instructors, who become certified through a 250-hour training program, cater the class to attendees. “The teaching is really good,” she said of her employees, some of whom have day jobs outside of yoga. “Our teachers are incredibly skillful, they’re very devoted and they’re able to reach students at all of these different levels and make classes accessible to people of all levels.” Calm meditated in second, while Fitness Works stretched in third.

Many youngsters have spent their formative years at Guerin Recreation Center since its 1958 opening.

Corina Benner, Wake up Yoga director, has provided a nurturing space to lift her and her students’ spirits.

Places East side story

utsiders may consider South Philly one, big neighborhood, but in these parts those words may create a heated argument. In this neighborly competition, only one community could claim supremacy, and the Readers’ Choice Award goes to East Passyunk Avenue. “It’s been a big year for East Passyunk, and we are so excited and grateful for being voted the Readers’ Choice for best neighborhood,” Renee Gilinger, East Passyunk Avenue Business Improvement District executive director, said. The shopping, dining and residential strip better known as “the avenue” features a little something for patrons of all ages. Twentyone of the neighborhood’s eateries joined together for East Passyunk Avenue’s first-ever Restaurant Week Feb. 24 to March 2. The Easter Egg Hunt (March 23), Flavors of the Avenue (April 27) and Italian Festival and Craft Beer Day (June 2) are other events on tap this spring. “One of the best parts about East Passyunk is the balance of the old and the new. Within just a few blocks we have a 100-year-old cheese shop, chic boutiques with one-ofa-kind fashion-forward clothes and accessories, organic locally-made specialty groceries, stylish salons, vintage clothes and furniture, communion gowns and suits, a craft beer store and the last full-service kids’ shoe store in the region,” Gilinger said. “I’m not sure all of this exists on one corridor anywhere else in the city.” Packer Park settled for second, while the Italian Market bagged third.

Death becomes them

hile global governments strive to decrease taxes, funeral directors aim to diminish the pain associated with death — life’s two con-

stants, according to an old saying. For 92 years, the Baldi and Jacovini families have striven to console and help grieving parties to celebrate departed loved ones’ legacies with such care that readers have chosen their Pennsylvania Burial Co., 1327-35 S. Broad St., as the top funeral home. “Saying goodbye to a relative or a friend is never pleasant, so we’re all about comfort and accommodation,” Peter Jacovini said. “We take pride in helping people through tough times and feel honored that they come back to us on the unfortunate occasion of other losses because they respect how we try to honor someone’s memory.” The Haddonfield, N.J., resident and cousin Victor Baldi, a Girard Estate dweller, serve as owners and directors of the business that debuted as Italian Burial Casket Co., 924-26 S. Ninth St., in 1921 and relocated to Passyunk Square after the death of founder Pietro Jacovini in ’36. To avoid consideration as an Italian-exclusive business, their relatives changed the name and have developed relationships with Roman Catholic churches in South Philly and beyond and have accommodated Buddhist services for 25 years. “We know there are many funeral home options, especially on South Broad Street, so we feel humbled by this distinction,” Baldi said. Monti-Rago Funeral Home rested in second, while Stolfo Funeral Home was buried in third.

hen looking for inspiration to increase motivation, Frank “Roscoe” Natale relies on Abraham Lincoln, who declared, “Whatever you are, be a good one.” The 59-year-old also has garnered respect for his leadership skills, earning readers’ votes as the top high school coach for his baseball and football endeavors at Edward Bok Technical High School, 1901 S. Ninth St. “I want to be very good at what I do,” the resident of the 1600 block of South Juniper Street, who also serves as the athletic director and a chemistry teacher, said. “I approach athletics the same way I do classroom duties, meaning I work hard and stress accountability.” Attending clinics, reading and scouting enables him to intensify his preparation for the East Passyunk Crossing site. Though his diamond duties have yielded mixed results, his gridiron guidance is proving potent, as the 2011 Public League Coach of the Year has overseen two straight Public League title runs and as many City runner-up distinctions. As the seasons and rosters change, the coach, who keeps in top physical shape to complement his mental homework, remains a crusader for achievement yet never parts with perspective. “I’m thankful and humbled,” Natale said, “as there’s nothing like recognition from people in your neighborhood.” Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School boys’ basketball coach Carl Arrigale posted up in second place, while Bok boys’ basketball coach Greg Frangipani shot into third.

brightest, through his example and the resources he taps into.” The two have witnessed numerous championship coronations for their Saints and have sent many participants off to excellent colleges and universities as scholarship winners. With plenty of enrollees engaging in more than one discipline, DiPilla is receiving great support for his secondary education philosophy. “High school is the best, most formative years of your life,” the administrator said. “So, it’s a waste if you’re not involved in something, and athletics is a great character builder. Because of that, we feel honored our student-athletes are being recognized.” The Prep Charter High School Huskies howled in second place, and the South Philadelphia High School Rams battered away in third.

Utley also has been active off the baseball diamond. Along with wife Jen Utley, he has created the Utley Foundation to bring awareness to the epidemic of animal cruelty. The Southern California native has been known to have a love for Philly and its fans. Despite struggling with knee injuries, Utley continues to enjoy a prosperous career as the Phillies’ second baseman. With opening day less than a month away, the good news for the Readers’ Choice voters is that it looks as if Utley is ready to start the season on a healthy note.

n this frustrated, championship-craving town, each Philly pro sports owner makes an effort to give fans a winning product, but voters didn’t hold the lack of recent Stanley Cup championships against Philadelphia Flyers’ chairman Ed Snider — better known as Mr. Snider. Maybe it’s the fact that since 1966 when he purchased the NHL franchise, Snider , 80, has helped to shape the South Philly pro sports landscape. The visionary behind the gone, but never forgotten Spectrum and, of course, the building now known as the Wells Fargo Center, 3601 S.

The current season has included its share of frustrations between the lockout, which wiped out half of the regular season, and the fact that the Flyers can’t seem to build enough momentum to climb up the Eastern Conference standings. While a parade down South Broad Street might be a stretch this year, Flyers fans can be sure Snider, who has seen two Stanley Cup championships under his watch, will be ready to do whatever it takes to turn this franchise around in the offseason.

ver 113 editions, the Mummers Parade has helped performers and onlookers to part with the old and anticipate the new, and for its concentration on fun and fellowship, readers have dubbed it their top South Philadelphia tradition. “We all look forward to participating and certainly appreciate such an honor,” Bob Shannon Jr., captain emeritus for Quaker City String Band, 1943 S. Third St., and the New Year’s Shooters and Mummers Association president, said. A 54-year veteran of the revelry, the New Jersey resident touts its fostering a family feel among the attendees and the costumed entertainers as an invincible strength and lauds the latter’s insistence on performing community service as an added way to bolster numerous communities. No matter how low temperatures might dip, warm spirits dominate the day thanks to the infectious routines of five divisions that also perform overseas, with Quaker City having departed yesterday for its 23rd Ireland trip. The parade’s competitive aspects always quicken pulses, with Shannon eager to iron out a more festival-like, fan-friendly setup to broaden the day’s already undeniable appeal. “It’s a great feeling to have such recognition,” the former saxophone player for his Pennsport entity said. “Here’s to many more years.” The Italian Market Festival proudly placed in second, while the Columbus Day Parade chartered third.

Elected selection

esidents voted him in ofce, and now have given 1st District Councilman Mark Squilla the nod for favorite politician. Before taking office last year, the resident of Front Street and Snyder Avenue served as a committee person as well as a Friends of Burke Playground and Whitman Council Inc., 2455 S. Third St., member. Rallying to improve the Second-andJackson-streets spot, he organized its revitalization that brought more lights, redone pavements and new playground equipment. It helped to set the foundation for a careerpath change as Squilla, who graduated from La Salle University with a computer science degree, had been working as a systems analyst for the Pennsylvania Department of the Auditor General. “I thought I really enjoyed helping people along the way as a committee person and as president of Whitman,” he said. “On a bigger scale, I would have the opportunity to do more of that as a councilperson.” His district now stretches from Whitman to parts of Northeast Philly, but he believes his constituents have seen him stand up for his beliefs in order to protect them and promote their neighborhood groups’ initiatives. “I try to be very accessible, listen to people’s concerns, [am] willing to go out to meetings and I’m not above reproach,” the native of Fifth and Porter streets said. “I think that goes a long way — when people

have concerns or problems, they feel comfortable to ask you for help.” Mayor Michael Nutter and state Sen. Larry Farnese ranked second and third in the polls, respectively.

Social success

he readers have deemed the Social Scene as their favorite South Philly Review section. Each week the section features a variety of celebrations that readers want to share with the rest of the community. Announcements vary from engagements to graduations to birthdays to awards in the form of an ad through the paper’s website or in person. Submitters are able to personalize their ads through several different options ranging from the size and length of message to their favorite photo. Depending on the level of excitement the readers are feeling, they have the option to have their ad posted in print and online. This provides the opportunity to share announcements with ease to others outside of South Philly, such as posting its link on social media sites. With a number of ads being submitted each week, it is safe to say that the people in South Philly are always celebrating something, and this time the Social Scene is celebrating its own award right with the people. Lifestyles finished second, while Dining Out sampled third.

This was the chance to tell us what was missing from this year’s ballot. The funny thing is disk jockey recorded the No. 1 spot in the polls. Why is this funny? Well, a year ago, DJ was on the ballot, but due to a lack of responses, the selection committee decided to go in a different direction. After reviewing the ballots, it seems that people had a specific tune master, who is not being mentioned, on their minds. Why not you ask? Because it’s category not on this list. The voters who campaigned specifically for their favorite DJ know who he is and can start high-fiving the victor. For those scratching their heads wondering who this individual could possibly be, we offer the following clue: He scored a win in a category that is on this list.

An Open Letter to the

Citizens of Philadelphia

As city workers, we believe Philadelphia is America’s most resilient and vibrant city. Since the days of Benjamin Franklin,

Philadelphia has fostered a commitment to public service and the common good. It was here that America saw its first public hospital, first fire department, first high-quality public schools.

We are proud that we have always been part of the city’s strength. Whether it’s removing snow after a major blizzard or cleaning

the streets and repairing traffic signals after Hurricane Sandy, we know the importance of responding to the needs of Philadelphians.

We show our commitment every day in libraries, recreation centers, fire houses and city agencies that provide essential services. We

save lives providing emergency medical services — and risk our lives entering burning buildings. We protect at-risk children, keep the water safe and our restaurants sanitary, monitor our city’s air quality and collect the trash.

It’s not just that we work for the city. We live here. We worship here. Our children go to school here. For the past four years, we have worked without a contract or raise. Our sacrifice kept the city moving forward and saved more than $250 million. But as Philadelphia emerges from tough times, Mayor Nutter continues to promote an agenda that balances the budget on the backs of working people — and provides tax incentives to the city’s top 2 percent income bracket. To protect the city’s wealthiest, he has reduced essential services such as libraries and fire houses. Disregarding four decades of collective bargaining history, he has dictated cuts to city workers and refused to honor three separate rulings giving firefighters overdue pay increases.

We believe it’s time for a fair Philadelphia where our communities come first and a hard day’s work is respected. As Mayor Nutter and the City Council negotiate the city budget, please call them at the numbers below and urge them to fight for vital services by fully funding city agencies and ensuring respect for Philadelphia’s working families. City Council President Council President Darrell L. Clarke: (215) 686-2070

Confessions of a guilty meat eater

meat, why not put it on the menu? My Sicilian grandfather on my father’s side often dined on the head of a lamb. Mom’s reaction was that Sicilians will eat anything. She couldn’t get enough scorn in her voice when she said it. Mom was of proud Neapolitan descent. She would do anything for Dad, but would never serve him the head of a lamb. I got the feeling, though Dad would have denied it, that he was just as happy she wouldn’t serve it. I can just hear Grandpop in a Hannibal Lecter voice saying, “I’ll have that head served with fava beans and a fine Chianti.” But back to the idea of serving Man O’ War’s distant cousin on a plate. A well-known local chef charged those of us too squeamish to eat horsemeat with moral confusion of sorts. If we can eat other animals, he said, why not horse? This is a guy who charges $155 a person for his tasting menu, so I can probably give him 155 reasons why I wouldn’t want filet of Secretariat as one of the courses. But he is right, of course, about the moral confusion of folks like me, who are not vegetarians, but who turn their nose up at eating horsemeat. My moral compass wobbles all over the place when it comes to choosing what meat I will and won’t eat, and I am the first to tell you that my logic is not logical at all. I can sum up my personal code when it comes to eating animals, I try not to eat anything cuter than me. Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, this gives me great latitude. Using the “cute” factor as my guide, this allows me to eat Steak Diane (although I prefer, for reasons of gender respect, that my steak not to be named after any female), but to pass on rabbit pot pie (out of respect for Peter Rabbit and his secular role during this Easter season). But even here, I have failed. I have eaten rabbit, but at least not around Easter. I have eaten frogs’ legs and mourned for frog amputees that fill our pet hospitals. I am reminded by films such as “Babe” that pigs are cute, yet I relish my roast pork sandwich with provolone and long hots. However when I slip on occasion, I try to make a larger donation to the Humane Society (PETA scares me) as my version of a good act of contrition. I claim no moral superiority. Will I be tempted to try horsemeat, perhaps in a pastry puff (Seabiscuit Wellington)? On one side, I hear those who say that horses are slaughtered anyway. On the other side, I recognize that I can no longer pretend that horses are noble if I savor them smothered with melted provolone. If only Mom had raised me on quinoa and goji berries, life would be so much easier. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

Gen. Douglas MacArthur (Tommy Lee Jones), center, launches an investigation into the Japanese monarch, “Emperor,” which reflects on both love and war post-WWII.

Surrender now By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

s Matthew Fox the new Jennifer Aniston? Because just as the “Friends” alum has struggled to hunt down worthwhile film roles, this “Lost” actor can’t nail the jump from small screen to big in the wake of his series’ finale. First came last year’s god-awful “Alex Cross,” which saw Fox play a risible murderer, and now we’re treated to “Emperor,” a rote and sluggish historical postwar drama that casts Fox as Bonner Fellers, a Japan-based U.S. general out for justice. Co-starring Tommy Lee Jones, who does self-parody as Gen. Douglas MacArthur, the movie means well as it chronicles U.S. and Japan’s relations in an ultra-tender time. But, then, you know what they say about good intentions, and as for Fox, the goodwill forged by Jack Shephard is growing direly thin. Centered around MacArthur’s investigation into Emperor Hirohito (Takatarô Kataoka), and the role he played in WWII (specifically Pearl Harbor’s attack), “Emperor” is loaded with endless narration and bland, frilly flashbacks, both involving Fellers as he reflects on love and war. The former beau of a Japanese woman and the point man for MacArthur’s case, Fellers is always seen with varying levels of furrowed-brow concern, and Fox is about as compelling as an empty shell casing. Directed by Peter Webber, whose gorgeous debut was “The Girl with the Pearl Earring,” this is a film that’s figuratively and literally colorless, employing a gunmetal palette that fell out of vogue half a decade ago. And while there is some fascination to Fellers’s interrogations through various levels of Japanese government, David Klass and Vera Blasi’s script is a nightmare

of viewer hand-holding, a flaw to which it often unwittingly draws attention. Fond of a people that was just his countrymen’s enemy, Fellers is a transparent conduit for retrospective understanding. But “Letters from Iwo Jima” this is not, and piled-on exposition comes off as an insult. “I don’t need a history lesson,” Fellers says to a Japanese politico after both pointlessly recount some of WWII’s most infamous events. Thanks, general. We didn’t need this one either.

Recommended Rental The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey PG-13 Available Tuesday

Its greatness may not be at the level of the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy, but part one of Peter Jackson’s prequel saga is still amply supplied with magic, and the simple truth is that a return to Middle Earth is very welcome indeed. Telling of how Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) aids the Dwarves and comes to find the crucial One Ring, the movie brings back “Rings” favorites like Gandalf (Ian McKellen), and expands the fantasy world that’s surely the richest to ever hit screens.

am not a vegetarian. Actually, what I am is a guilty meat eater. I have never been able to overcome my carnivorous upbringing. My family ate meat about six times a week. My American-born mother kept meatless Fridays, but other than an occasional night when we had corn fritters, it was meat and lots of it, baby. She piled my plate high with steak, roast beef, beef stew, ham, pork chops and veal cutlet. On Sundays, our pasta was not complete unless it was accompanied by meatballs, sausage and bracciole. That’s not counting an occasional foray into liver and onions or tripe. When I identify myself today as a “guilty” meat eater, it is only partially for health reasons. Like my father, I have an inherent love for animals. He never associated tearing into a hunk of veal bonsette with killing an animal. I used to enjoy going to the butcher shop with Mom and seeing those bloody husks hanging on hooks. As far as I knew, those husks had never lived to nibble on a blade of grass. But today, I can no longer claim such ignorance, so I mangia with guilt. The prevailing joke in our house was the famous place that served steak sandwiches really served horsemeat. Mom, who cooked and served all kinds of meat, turned up her nose at the thought that anyone would eat it. Here we are 60 years later and find out Italy is the biggest consumer of horsemeat in Europe. Mom would have been shocked. A ban on the production of horsemeat for human consumption in the U.S. lapsed in 2011. The Obama Administration is for reinstating the ban, so I figure the Republicans must be for serving horsemeat in the House cafeteria. In order for horsemeat to be legally consumed here, it must be inspected by the USDA, and the latest news is the Department of Agriculture may approve a horse-slaughtering plant in Roswell, N.M. Yes, it is that Roswell, alleged crash site of an alien space craft in the ’50s. There is a message in there somewhere, but frankly, I haven’t figured it out. Some upscale local chefs have quickly gotten on board with the idea of putting horsemeat on their menu. The idea is if you are claiming to serve authentic Italian food and authentic Italians dine on horse-

and heat in a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes. I did just that. The chicken was moist, juicy and tender inside. The reheat did not overcook the bird. I did serve homemade coleslaw with the chicken and was surprised to find two paper ramekins filled with Japanese cucumber pickles. Homer Simpson is probably America’s most famous donut lover, even if he only exists on TV. I can imagine what his life would be like if Federal Donuts opened a branch in mythical Springfield. = Very Good

n a brutally hot July morning a few years ago, a friend arrived at my door bearing a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I had never tasted one, so I took a bite and immediately spit the offending piece into my napkin. This round pastry masquerading as a donut was so sticky and cloyingly sweet I could not, for the life of me, understand why Krispy Kreme was all the rage. I reflected back to my childhood because I grew up eating real homemade doughnuts. My Austrian-born grandmother made them in the morning during our summers at the shore. The aroma of cinnamon and sugar wafted from the kitchen and all through the house. They were never too sweet. Fried chicken is a food I love but never ate growing up. The first time I ever tried honest-to-goodness real fried chicken was years ago at a marvelous café in Atlanta. Just the memory of my visits makes me hungry. This brings me to the topic of this review: Federal Donuts. Go as soon as you can. There is one in Pennsport and another in Center City. When the Pennsport location first opened, I thought it odd that a restaurant/ takeout shop would serve fried chicken, doughnuts and coffee. Philly has been known to invent strange culinary twosomes, such as fried oysters and chicken salad, which harks back to Colonial times when old hens would pair with the thenabundance of oysters. Let’s start with the doughnuts. The hot, fresh flavors are appollonia, Indian cin-

namon and vanilla-lavender (or vanilla spice, strawberry lavender and cinnamonbrown sugar in Center City). They are $1.25 each, $6 for a half dozen and $11 for a dozen. You must eat them hot-fromthe-oven while you wait in line for your chicken and coffee. I revisited my childhood at Federal Donuts. The shop also features flavors of the month, which are called Fancies. March’s flavors are double chocolate, Turkish coffee, raspberry lemonade, milk chocolatepeanut butter, french toast and cherryalmond. They are $2 each, $12 for a half dozen and $20 a dozen. I sampled all of them and my taste buds came alive with each bite. They were not overly sweet — thank goodness. The icing on the double chocolate was rich like a ganache. I savored it with a cup of tea while watching “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” There are choices with the fried chicken as well. If you are toting your chicken home, it is advisable to order a dry rub rather than a wet glaze. There’s buttermilk ranch, chiligarlic, honey-ginger and coconut curry (or Federal barbecue in Center City). I had the chili-garlic, which was delicious. The price is $9 for half of a chicken and $17 for a whole chicken. Keep in mind that real fried chicken, as it is prepared in the deep South, is made with small broilers. The frying is more even. The skin of Federal Donuts chicken was thin, flavorful, crispy and free of fat and grease. I had the urge to nosh on a wing before I left the shop, but this whole perfectly fried bird was to become dinner. The clerk told me to put the chicken on a baking sheet

Belle Cakery’s Passion Fruit Tart

essie Prawlucki has prepared the desserts and breads at Fond, 1537 S. 11th St., since its 2009 opening. After she and Fond’s chef, Lee Styer, were

Chef Jessie Prawlucki

Belle Cakery Owner: Jessie Prawlucki Opened November 2011 1437 E. Passyunk Ave. 215-271-2299 bellecakery.com

engaged, she opened Belle Cakery, 1437 E. Passyunk Ave. “I just had to move out of the kitchen [at Fond],” Prawlucki said. “... When you’re in a tiny kitchen doing restaurant desserts, you’re pretty limited.” Prawlucki, who spent time at Le Bec Fin prior to running Fond with Styer and manager/friend Tory Keomanivong, gravitated to baking while enrolled at New York’s Culinary Institute of America. “My heart just is in pastries,” she said. “I’ve always enjoyed it. It is just meticulous and loving.” The Fifth-and-Morris-streets resident’s contributions to the Passyunk Square eatery are picked up each day from the bakery where patrons may stop by to make a custom order or to purchase a sweet snack, such as her Passion Fruit Tart.

Tart Dough INGREDIENTS: 8 tablespoons of butter, soft

3/4 cup of confectioners’ sugar 2 egg yolks 1-1/2 tablespoons of milk 2-1/3 cups of ﬂour 1/2 teaspoon of salt 1 ounce of white chocolate, ﬁnely chopped

on top and spread it inside DIRECTIONS: the shell. Cool comCream the butter and sugar; pletely before filling. add the yolks and milk; sift in Passion Fruit Curd the flour and salt; and mix. Pat into a disc, wrap and chill for at INGREDIENTS: least six hours. Roll into an 1/8-inch thick 2/3 cup of passion fruit sheet on a lightly floured surface. purée Wrap well and chill for at least 2 egg yolks 3 eggs an hour. Fit into a tart mold, or 1/2 cup of sugar cut into smaller circles, and make 8 tablespoons of butter tartlet shells. Chill for at least 20 minutes. DIRECTIONS: To avoid bubbles, poke a few holes in the shell with a fork Set up a double boiler large and then bake at 325 degrees for enough to hold the curd ingreabout 10 minutes, until golden dients, with at least four inches brown. Cool for about five min- of space on top. Whisk the eggs, utes. Sprinkle the white chocolate yolks and sugar together. Whisk

in the purée. Over the double boiler, cook the mixture, whisking constantly and adding in a bit of air to double the volume by about one-third, until it is thick enough to leave whisk marks, the foam on top incorporates and it reaches about 175 degrees. Remove from heat, whisk in the butter, until melted. Pour into the shells. (Extra curd will keep, chilled, for about one week, and is delicious on croissants, ice cream or as pudding.) Chill for at least two hours. Garnish with white chocolate, edible flowers and fresh berries, if desired. SPR

If you are living with Multiple Sclerosis, are you in control of your bladder? Or, is your bladder in control of you? If you’re a person living with multiple sclerosis and as a result, are suffering with urinary leakage, you may want to consider taking part in a medical research study. You must meet the following criteria: • 18 years or older • Stable multiple sclerosis for three months. • Have had urinary leakage for at least three months • Have used at least one overactive bladder medication • Not using clean-intermittent self-catheterization (CIC) or an indwelling catheter to manage your urinary leakage The DIGNITY2 study is assessing a new investigational dosage of an approved medication to control urinary incontinence (leakage) as a result of the bladder problems that can occur in people with multiple sclerosis. If you would like to know more about the study, please contact your local DIGNITY2 study team directly or visit the DIGNITY2 website at www.DIGNITY2study.com To find out more, please contact: Jefferson Urology Associates at 215-955-8044.

Ten percent of the highest bid for each property auctioned off shall be deposited in cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order with the Sheriff by each bidder when his bid is registered, provided that in no case shall less than Six Hundred Dollars ($600.00) be deposited, otherwise upon failure or refusal to make such deposit, the bidder shall lose all benefit of his bid and the property may be immediately offered again and sold unless a second bid has been registered, then, the second highest bidder will take the property at the highest bid price. Additionally, where there is active bidding, the highest bidder, and the second highest bidder, if any must post the entire amount of the cost of the distribution policy for the property at the time of sale by cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order with the Sheriff. The balance of the purchase money must be deposited in cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order together with a Deed poll for execution by the highest bidder to the Sheriff at his office within 30 days from the time of the sale. An extension of time for an additional 30 days may be granted at the discretion of the Sheriff upon receipt of written request from the buyer requesting the same, except when a second bidder has been duly registered. Also, if the first bidder does not complete settlement with the Sheriff within the thirty (30) day time limit and a second bid was registered at the sale, the second bidder shall be granted the same thirty (30) day time limit to make settlement with the Sheriff on his second bid. Thereafter, the Sheriff shall be at liberty to return the writ to court. A second bid must be registered on any property immediately after it is sold. The second bidder must present the same amount of deposit that the highest bidder delivers to the Sheriff at the sale. An extension of time under no circumstances will be granted or honored by the Sheriff whenever a second bid is registered on a property at the sale. The first bid or opening bid on each property shall be a sum sufficient to pay all Sheriff’s costs including advertising, all taxes, water rents and municipal claims due to the City of Philadelphia. If there is no other bid price above the opening bid price, the property shall be sold by the auctioneer to the attorney on the writ at that price. The deposit by any bidder who fails to comply with the above conditions of sale shall be forfeited and the funds will be applied to the Sheriff’s cost, then to any municipal claims that the City of Philadelphia has on the property. Finally, if a balance still remains, a Sheriff’s Distribution Policy will be ordered and the money will be distributed accordingly. No personal checks, drafts or promises to pay will be accepted in lieu of cash, certified checks, attorney’s checks or money orders

SHERIFF’S SALE made payable to the Sheriff of Philadelphia County. The Sheriff reserves the right to grant further extensions of time to settle and further reserves the right to refuse bids from bidders who have failed to enter deposits on their bids, failed to make settlement, or make fraudulent bids, or any other behavior which causes disruption of the Sheriff Sale. Said bidders shall be so refused for the sale in which said behavior occurred and for said further period of time as the Sheriff in his discretion shall determine. The Sheriff will not acknowledge a deed poll to any individual or entity using an unregistered fictitious name and may, at his discretion, require proof of identity of the purchaser or the registration of fictitious names. The bid of an unregistered fictitious name shall be forfeited as if the bidder failed to meet the terms of sale. All bidders are advised to remain at the sale until after the last property is sold. The Sheriff reserves the right to re-sell any property at any time before the end of the sale, upon the successful bidders’ failure to tender the required deposit. The Sheriff reserves the right to postpone or stay the sale of any property in which the attorney on the writ has not appeared and is not present at the sale.
