Word on the Street What is your favorite spring memory?

Editor’s note

Signs of spring’s arrival

I

t’s early Saturday morning, and I can clearly hear the flock of birds pleasantly chirping outside. Wait, spring is more than a week away, so those feathery fellows should still be in Miami with all of the other snowbirds. Out of curiosity, I looked out the bedroom window and could still see the small traces of powdery white stuff. Old Man Winter seems to be hanging around for his season finale. Suddenly, I couldn’t get my mind off spring and started looking for a sprinkling of signs that warmer conditions will soon be here to stay. Here is what I came up with in no particular order. After listening to multiple weather forecasts, I realized that none of the meteorologists used the phrases polar vortex or Alberta Clipper. I feel like “we are stuck in a polar vortex” has been used so many times this winter that it has the potential to become a hit series on the Syfy network. ... When I arrived in South Philadelphia Saturday afternoon, I pulled

up in front of Pop’s Water Ice and noticed the ordering window was finally open. A few blocks away, a resident was hosing down his motorcycle and gearing up for an afternoon joyride. The stores along the Ninth Street Italian Market had lines out the door. These were all positive signs that the people were finally victorious in the bitter battle against Jack Frost and his 15 winter storms. ... There were a few random drivers riding through Lower Moyamensing who had their music so loud that it may have woken up that sleeping baby in East Passyunk Crossing. ... Those outdoor tables have come out of storage, giving restaurant patrons the chance to enjoy a great meal while taking in that comfortable March breeze. Of course if the wind kicks up that lion-like roar, save the outdoor plans for next weekend. ... Instead of reading another dark and gloomy chapter of the struggling Sixers saga, the local sports

pages have become a little more upbeat with Phillies updates from Clearwater and who the Eagles may be signing when the freeagent market opens. ... Sorry, Flyers fans, but there is nothing spring about the orange and black. Think about it, the players wear sweaters and ice skates. Of course, there is always the possibility of a parade down South Broad Street. Scratch that; this is Philadelphia and things like that don’t happen here. ... I just tried driving down South 12th Street looking for a parking spot, only to be detoured thanks to the Philadelphia Water Department doing its annual repairs. Hey, the work needs to be done. ... The season premiere of “Game of Thrones” season four is less than a month away (April 6 on HBO). For those who haven’t caught on, there is still some time to catch up with weekend viewing marathons. Warning: the show is very addicting. ... Hollywood always seems to get a

jump start on the summer blockbuster season by releasing some superhero films in early spring. This year is no exception, as “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” comes out April 4 followed by “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” on May 2. ... The massive South Philly Review’s annual Spring Guide arrives on the front stoop with the 2014 Readers’ Choice Awards and expanded What’s Happening section. This time-consuming project started back in January with deciding what categories would make the list. It was followed by several weeks of tallying, leaving even the office staff in suspense as to what people and places would reign supreme. Now, after spending several days writing and editing stories about food, I suddenly find myself very hungry. What was I talking about again? —By Bill Gelman Contact Editor Bill Gelman at bgelman@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 121.

■ [Cheese]steaks are high

T Phillip’s Steaks

Geno’s

here aren’t many food items as iconically Philadelphian as cheesesteaks. For better or worse (water ice and soft pretzels seem less gut-busting). It was certainly a tight race for best cheesesteak and this one came down to the wire — so close that we were obliged to declare it a tie between Philip’s Steaks, 2234 W. Passyunk. Ave, and Geno’s Steaks, 1219 S. Ninth St. The steak joints across South Philly are getting ready for the heavy-consumption season. But it seems like memories of summer night post-club cheesesteaks are fresh enough in readers’ minds to pick a winner. Susan Baldino, the underdog in this fight, was floored by the honor and attributed her humble 24-hour spot’s success to devoted fans: “I’m so excited for all of our loyal customers. I’m so thankful and honored for the win.” The business has been in her family for decades, but the enthusiasm for her product’s still palpable. She opened an oven to show roasting pork for sandwiches, talked about the complicated history of the Pizza Steak, and admitted that their “whiz” steak is probably No.1. “We have a lot of regulars. I got old with them,” she said with a laugh. The endless lines outside of the “tourist traps” of Geno’s and Pat’s are there for a reason, though: Those businesses are accustomed to churning out steaks fac-

■ Tasty tots

S

ince opening in 2005, Steak Em Up, 2600 S. 11th St., has continued to deliver a product that can’t be matched especially when it comes to serving up the best french fries. “We’re so happy we were chosen for best french fries,” owner Mike Lane said. With a hearty menu including everything from breakfast selections and salads to burgers and ice cream sundaes, Lane thinks variety is what makes his establishment’s deep fried potatoes stand out. “We have an array of french fries, sweet potato fries, cheese fries, mega fries and we use real Cheez Whiz, which I think is a plus,” he said. The corner business’ mega fries are loaded with bacon, mozzarella cheese and Cheez Whiz while Steak Em Up’s other variations include pizza fries, curly fries and the newest addition of cheesesteak fries topped with rib-eye steak and choice of cheese. Open daily from 8 a.m. through 11 p.m. and delivering breakfast, lunch and dinner as far north as Center City, it’s no wonder why business is booming for this community gem. “Business is excellent and we need to thank our cus-

tory-style, night after night. But “we’re always excited” for wins of any kind, Geno’s Jeff Beres said. Though they’ve received nods from the likes of Zagat and Philadelphia Magazine, one might argue it’s the Readers’ Choice wins that mean more. And “quality and cleanliness” is one of their secrets to success, Beres said. Second place goes to Steak Em’ Up with third place belonging to Jim’s.

tomers for that,” Lane said. “It’s very hard for businesses to stay open, but because of our customers, we keep it going.” Chickie’s & Pete’s curled into second place, with Oregon Steaks and Nick’s Roast Beef shaking it up in third.

■ Hometown hoagie heroes

F

or some South Philadelphians, best hoagie could be considered the Holy Grail of Readers’ Choice Awards. For the people to speak and shout PrimoHoagies, 1528 W. Ritner St., as their favorite has got to be why Primo’s has become what we’ve seen it become over the past 15 years. The original location on an unassuming strip of Ritner that’s dotted with savory and sweet foods, has been the anchor of a business that’s blossomed into a 90-shop franchise. “The philosophy from the beginning was give them a good product. Don’t give a lot of filler and they’ll come back,” Tom Rossi, a friend of Rich and Colleen Neigre’s, the couple who started it all right here in Marconi, explained. “We always try to use the freshest bread, the freshest ingredients, and the highest quality meats and cheeses as possible.” Even though the shop where it all started isn’t their busiest, Rossi remembers when PrimoHoagie

■ s o u t h p h i l l y r e v i e w.c o m

that wasn’t the case. “When we first opened there was always a line, like you couldn’t get in the door,” he recalled. Hoagies have, essentially, always been their speciality. “We don’t do cheesesteaks or fries or burgers. None of that stuff,” Rossi said. But they have mastered some of the Italian specialties to go alongside the bestselling Classic Italian hoagie: antipastis, roasted peppers, marinated mozzarella balls and side dishes. Rossi lamented with a smile that Audrey was enjoying a “rare day off.” Her friendly face has been running the original location for some time now, and serving up healthy, full-packed hoagies to South Philly as per family tradition. And with new a location at 326 South St. and soon-to-be-open locales in Northern Liberties and Old City, the hoagie kings and repeat winners are spreading their dominion by the day. Lil’ Nicks wasn’t able to swipe this one from the longstanding legends as first runners-up, and neither was third-place winners, another local hegemony, Chickie’s and Pete’s.

■ Handmade homemade

P

erhaps the biggest well-known secret to Nick Maiale’s success at Lil Nick’s Deli, 1311 W. Moyamensing Ave., is his refusal to nd a home for an appliance so many delis and restaurants rely on: A freezer. “Nothing comes out of a freezer. We don’t own one here,” Maiale Jr. said. The Readers’ Choice winner for Specialty Sandwich could point to a small handful of popular orders the small shop cranks out weekly. “Everything’s homemade, everything’s made from scratch by me or my mother,” Maiale Jr. said, with his father, who runs the adjacent Big Nick’s, checking in on his son with pride. “She showed me everything,” the 44-year-old LoMo lifer says of his early start in a kitchen with his mother, Arlene. Everything from meatballs to soups is all made from scratch. Even their famous chicken cutlets are treated with uniqueness. “Our cutlets are friend in a pan, not deep-fried,” Maiale Jr. said. If it’s not the cutlet hoagie varieties that earned them the honor, it’s the veal scaloppine (“Tender chunks of veal in mom’s homemade sauce”). But Nick prepared a new favorite, the fried meatball friadelle sandwich; with pan-fried meatballs (without sauce), sweet Italian friadelle peppers and cheeses, both American and

hat makes a good pizza? For some, it’s the sauce while other times the toppings take the pie. Of course, this popular item that many college students consider its own food group wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for the dough. When asked which place had the best pizza crust on the south side of Broad Street, the voters placed a first-place order supporting City Pizza, 2700 S. 16th St., and 100 Snyder Ave. Bob Petril, owner of the Marconi location, takes the pizza-making process very seriously. “We use probably the best flour on the market,” he said. “We mix our dough at least two to three times a day. “ Frank Andrew, who owns the Whitman location, is a firm believer in consistency. “We stay with the same product,” he said. The public knows if you change. They know what they want.” Petril agrees with his fellow owner.

outh Philly can’t get enough of Green Eggs Cafe, 1306 Dickinson St., with readers honoring it with tastiest brunch menu. While the eggs might not be physically green, the restaurant aims to be environmentally friendly by buying locally, growing herbs and spices in its rooftop garden, recycling and composting. Since its 2009 opening, patrons have waited for tables at the coveted Passyunk Square eatery, but the dishes are worth the wait. The love affair has allowed Marconi’s Stephen Slaughter to expand his business and has resulted in readers’ naming its French toast superior in ’11 and its Sunday brunch as the place to be last year. However, what’s ironic is Green Eggs doesn’t even have a brunch menu, technically. It offers the same bill of fare 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The menu includes customer favorites, such as red velvet pancakes and chicken and waffles Benedict, as well as a

e have some people that eat here three times a day,” said Bill Dovas, a Packer Park resident and the manager of his family’s Penrose Diner, 2016 Penrose Ave., a perennial Reader’s Choice winner for best diner. “You know their order before they even sit down.” The anchor of the neighborhood, the diner’s been in business for over 60 years but has lived in the space that used to be a gas station for about 16 years. They redid the outside’s facades about 5 years ago and continue to expand, now capable of seating almost 250 diners at once. The success of the place, however, is almost entirely because of his staff, Dovas says. “They make it a friendly and inviting place. They feel comfortable here and bring their families and their children here,” Dovas professed. The busiest days are brunch days, which also tend to tie into Eagles days, a day where plenty of Omelets get ordered, earning them

best omelet selection honors in addition to Best Diner. The No. 1, though, is probably the South Philly Omelet (“Italian sausage, provolone cheese, sweet peppers and onions,” reads the menu). The three-egg omelet selection certainly brings thousands of eggs in weekly and only shells leaving the location. With the love and devotion Philadelphians have for their diner food, it’s quite an honor to nab the top spot from South Philly readers. And while their massive menu is pretty standard, the Dovas family’s Greek heritage and business partner Manwell Baroody’s Syrian background have included “standard Greek stuff: Baklava, Spanakopita, our Greek salad’s fantastic, Lamb on Sundays,” Dovas lists the diner’s international influences. He started as a dishwasher at age 15 (“You don’t really have a choice,” he jokes) in his father’s North Jersey diners, isn’t unlike another mainstay at the diner - Sandy McKay. “She’s been here for about 50 years,” Dovas boasts. She started as a waitress and now manages. “I think it says a lot about us,” Dovas said of their victory, “but it’s also about the way we treat our customers. People take pride in the fact that they have a great diner in their neighborhood.” Though second and third (Melrose and Oregon, respectively) didn’t really stand a chance, the race was one of the more hotly contested ones. Green Eggs came in a close second for omelet selection, with Sabrina’s finishing third.

hen it comes to the Readers’ Choice Awards, it’s not uncommon to see Scannicchio’s Italian Restaurant, 2500 S. Broad St., towards the top of the multiple winners list. Two years ago, the popular Marconi eatery walked away with “The fantastic four” collection of honors. This year, owners Christian Varalli and Michael Gibson have topped the leaderboard in the BYOB and date night categories.

READERS’ CHOICE The former is a victory Varalli and his team especially cherish as it’s proof that the concept the duo started with 10 years ago is continuing to leave a lasting impression. When the liquor licence inquires come in, Varalli, who also shares the cooking duties with Gibson, never hesitates with a quick no. “We want to stay a BYOB, which keeps our prices lower, and the restaurant on the busier side seven nights a week,” Varalli said. “Customers can enjoy a nice dinner more frequently with good quality food. It gives us a chance to be a little more creative.” Ristorante Pesto, 1915 S. Broad St., cooked up runner-up recognition while Izumi, 1601 E. Passyunk Ave., plated third. When it comes to date night, the lights shine brightly at Scannicchio’s where the romantic ambiance seems to be leaving a lasting impression. Varalli noted there have been several couples who have come to the establishment for their first date, and returned several months later to get engaged. “We try to keep the atmosphere intimate and inviting,” he said. It helps that the Scannicchio’s staff is made up of multiple generations of the Varalli and Gibson families. They all work together to create a memorable experience for the customers. “I stress everyday that the customer coming in need to feel at home,” Varalli said. “We treat everybody the same.” Pesto added another helping of second in the date night results while Noir, 1909 E. Passyunk Ave., sampled third.

o matter where one’s culinary allegiance lies, establishments charge themselves with ensuring that diehards and novices will have a plethora of delicious dishes from which to choose. Italian eateries have long enjoyed favor in South Philly, but other cultures have grown competitive, with Johnny Chang’s, 2601 S. Broad St., emerging as this year’s top ethnic restaurant (non-Italian). “Our chef makes great food with fresh ingredients, and delivery is prompt,” coowner Cindy Xie said of what helps the eight-year-old Lower Moyamensing location to thrive. “It makes us very happy to have the recognition.” Offering Chinese and Japanese selections since its inception, Johnny Chang’s has wowed taste buds with numerous homages to its Asian heritage, with Xie, who shares duties with seven-year manager David Lin, noting that house special rolls, rice noodle options, dumplings and sweet and sour chicken head customers’ cravings list. With a very popular dine-in section, too, the spot has helped to create many memorable family outings and dates for local residents. “The way we prepare our food is usually healthier than other places’ methods,” Xie said. With this being the Year of the Horse within Chinese astrology, perhaps it is fitting that Johnny Chang’s galloped past the competition. For Xie, the victory marks more proof of the destination’s dedication to quality meals. “Thank you for this,” she said. “We’re here to serve you.” JC Chinese steamed in to finish in second place, while Cantina Los Caballitos spiced up third.

ome eateries become renowned for their menu items only, but at Ristorante Pesto, 1915 S. Broad St., food forms a triumvirate of amenities with a welcoming ambience and a pervasive sense of camaraderie. For the third time since 2010, the 11-year-old establishment has delighted enough diners to merit the top Italian restaurant title. “We really appreciate the people and operate with the same mentality we had when we opened, which is that we’re always trying to make them feel at home,” Concetta Varallo, who owns the East Passyunk Crossing location with her husband, John, said. “We’re very humble and grateful.” Her beau, who recently won placement in the book roundup “Best Chefs America,” and their daughter, Maria Facenda, make great use of their southern Italian lineage to please patrons with numerous pasta dishes.

prides himself on their dessert options, including a cherished cheesecake courtesy of his mother-in-law Elvira Feudale’s recipe. “We love the closeness we have with them,” the Girard Estate occupant said. “They feel like our family.” Proving their bottom line does not always register as its top concern, the Varallo clan often gives away items to gauge what people like and to honor their choosing Pesto from South Philly’s impressive roster of Italian restaurants. Believing in immaculate presentation, too, the family feels each dish

must reflect respect for the art of cooking and diners’ desires not only for satiety but also camaraderie. Concetta, whose father, Vincenzo, died Jan. 23 and to whom she dedicates this honor, finds herself especially grateful that their visitors, her adopted relatives, have commended Pesto. “Any recognition means a great deal to us,” she said. “I wish I could thank each voter individually.” Scannicchio’s plated a second-place finish, and Ralph’s found room for the third course.

n a neighborhood not necessarily known for cuisine popped up the latest best new restaurant – Breezy’s Café, 1200 Point Breeze Avenue. Partners Scott Harnish and Kristin Wolak, both residents of Point Breeze, opened this novel spot simply because they wanted more nutritional options and variety in their own community. And, the result has been described as nothing short of perfection. “I didn’t think we had a chance so it’s awesome and we’re more surprised than anything else,” Harnish said. The two took their diverse backgrounds Harnish was a former food truck owner while Wolak worked as a nanny and photo editor – and applied it to their neighborhood when they originally started Breezy’s in March 2012. After a short period of time, they moved two blocks and reopened at the current location in December. The co-owners’


READERS’ CHOICE belief in natural, unprocessed foods has made this place stand out. “We believe in the quality of food,” Harnish said. “We are just trying to serve local and quality ingredients to the masses and not just one type of person.” With that in mind, the menu features both vegetarian and vegan options, hormone and steroid free meats and cheeses and as much organic choices as possible. The café has a loyal vegan and grassfed following, and the staff cooks and bakes a large percentage of the menu on the premises. Harnish and Wolak are grateful and excited to receive this recognition. Noord did Norway proud in second, with Laurel picking up laurels in third.

hen the Leuzzi family opened Stogie Joe’s Tavern, 1801-03 E. Passyunk Ave., in 2008, brothers Joe, Kristian and Sonny sought to offer an amazing blend of delicious provisions and smooth libations. With national renown having already proven their mission well-designed, the siblings also can revel thanks to local voices, who have deemed their East Passyunk Crossing location’s bar menu South Philly’s best. “People know what they’re getting when

they come here, and that’s a big selection of food and drink options,” Sonny said. “It’s a point of pride for us to have something for everyone.” With 10 appetizers and as many as 20 bar menu items, patrons never fail to validate the Leuzzis’ all-inclusive approach and avoid paying exorbitant prices to do so. “We love that we have such high-quality, affordable and home-cooked food,” manager Joe DiOrio said. “Our menu, aside from specials, has been constant, so it’s

great to have recognition for all we do.” Diners particularly enjoy the site’s meatball sandwich, pizza, sausage bites and homemade clams casino, with Bloody Marys and margaritas delighting the of-age crowd. Committed to contenting their customers, the principal players enjoy obtaining their praise. “I speak for all of us when I say how grateful we are,” Sonny said. “It’s especially good because this comes from local people, and we know there are plenty of

t’s been a banner year for Nick Elmi. The Massachusetts native’s ties to Philly started at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, with a Philly-born roommate, but the City of Brotherly Love became his home when he started crashing on his brother’s couch about 13 years ago. This past year got huge when he and his Laurel BYOB , 1617 E. Passyunk Ave., started winning a string of awards: First by topping the OpenTable.com “Diner’s Choice” list, then the coveted Bravo cooking competition title of Top Chef, and now Readers’ Choice Award for Top Chef. Things are looking good for Elmi and his 22-chair eatery in East Passyunk Crossing. When Lee Styer’s Fond, 1537 S. 11th St., relocated, Elmi and his crew saw potential in his old space. “We saw the opportunity to do something really small and special,” he said. “I’m not doing anyone else’s food from now on. I’m doing my food.” The chef seems to have always had his eye on simple goals: Outstanding food and

Unfortunately, with only 44 diners per night, hopeful guests are looking at a nearly three-month wait. “We apologize that we can’t accommodate everyone right now,” he concedes, but also stresses that there aren’t necessarily riches to be reaped from his small dining room. “We didn’t open a 22-seat BYOB in South Philly to make money and get rich.” The chef’s takes on seafood, combining elegant ingredients and delicately layering flavors has earned him star chef status in South Philly, and while he’s elated to have brought home a fat check from Bravo, he seems humbly focused on food. “We just want to get better,” he assures.

aving invested more than six decades into preaching excellence as a component of sustenance, Gus Isgro seems to grow more passionate about the creation of each treat at Isgro Pastries, 1009 Christian St. The thirdgeneration employee and store owner has never wavered from his commitment to high-quality offerings, and readers have reserved rich regard for his Bella Vista labor of love, endowing it with best cannoli and bakery distinction. “I long ago decided to give 100 percent to this business,” he said of the 110-yearold establishment. “Because of that, I’m focused on giving each customer the best.

■ s o u t h p h i l l y r ev i ew.c o m

We have too much pride in our lineage to think any other way.” That pedigree includes the dedication of uncle Samuel and mother Mary, who both recently passed away, and leads Gus, with more than 500 recipes, to value each interaction with sweets seekers. “I feel fortunate because this is such a lovely way to make a living,” he said. “We’re in the luxury sales business, so we really don’t have to work on drawing people or pitching our products, but that doesn’t mean we ever sacrifice consideration for what they see.” That devotion resonates with the crafting of their cannolis, which his grandfather, Mario, made the site’s first priority. It has enjoyed a long run as the shop’s best seller, with the ubiquitous chocolate, ricotta and vanilla varieties sharing the limelight with the chocolate mousse and mascarpone concoctions. March always proves favorable to Irish potato and zeppoli sales for St. Patrick’s Day and St. Joseph’s feast day, respectively, with the entire calendar kind of cookie, cupcake and poundcake renderings. A diligent disciple of the science behind baking, Gus serves as the chief taster, a role he cracked has endowed him with a nonetoo-small waistline. His goodies have attracted local and national attention, the latter apparent through a turneddown offer to have the Isgro family appear on a reality show akin to what would become “Cake Boss.” “I debate with myself about establishing a larger profile, but I feel content with the one location because I’m able to devote everything to it,” Gus said. “There’s a great sense of trust and respect here, and we’re forever looking to be a positive element of the larger community.” Having heard inquiries on when he might

retire, the proprietor confessed he has no exit strategy and will continue to be as vivacious as an older adult as he was as a boy placing cherries on cookies. “It’s my name and my business,” Gus said. “I’m very happy to have made so many acquaintances courtesy of that thinking, and I thank South Philly for these honors.” For cannoli, Termini Bros. filled in nicely in second, and Potito’s looked dreamy and creamy in third. For bakery, Potito’s whipped up a secondplace nod, while Termini Bros. found the right consistency in third.

here are a lot more smiling faces around South Philly this week. Why? For some it’s the sheer excitement over no longer having to bundle up in that heavy winter coat. For others, especially children, the upbeat mood comes as a result of the long winter hiatus of no Pop’s Water Ice, 1337 Oregon Ave., nally being over. It means the Readers’ Choice voters can nally return to Isgro Pastries

the place that serves up the neighborhood’s best gelati. “It’s great finding out we won the award, and we are very proud of what we do,” owner Linda Raffa said. She happens to be the oldest grandchild of Filippo “Pop” Italiano, who in 1932 started selling frozen treats out of a pushcart in South Philadelphia. “I remember when I was a little girl I was told ‘you can’t play with your friends tonight, but you can go over and help your granddad,’” she said. “It’s very heartwarming to be here, especially after the winter we had, and seeing all of the smiling faces.” Raffa said chocolate ice cream/vanilla water ice, orange water ice/vanilla ice cream and root beer water ice/vanilla ice cream are just a few of the popular combos that customers tend to order. With spring right around the corner, business is about to pick up again at this 82-year-old neighborhood landmark. Capogiro scooped up second while John’s Water Ice froze in third.

hocolate ganache, oreo and red velvet cupcakes are just a few of the selections sitting in the display case at Potito’s, 1614 W. Ritner St. Many customers must’ve been very hungry when they saw best cupcakes on the ballot as the Girard Estate establishment has been delivered the top prize. “To me, it’s one of the highest honors I can receive because it’s an award given to us by our customers,” owner/baker Matty Benigno said. “We are just happy to keep our Potito tradition going. We pride ourselves on quality customer service, and the variety that we do.” The South Philly location, which is one of four with a fifth one opening in Wildwood Crest later this spring, is a family affair with Matty’s wife Cristina assisting with the ownership responsibilities of the baking operation


READERS’ CHOICE that her parents, Carmen and Maria Potito, started in 1985. Antonio Potito, the 81-yearold father of the late Carmen, is the one who usually gets the daily baking process started as early as 5 a.m. every morning. There are many more names that belong on the thankyou list, but like an Oscar acceptance speech, Matty summed things up. “I want to thank all of my employees because they are a very important part of our team,” he said. Frangelli’s Bakery mixed a second-place batter while Termini’s made a tasty thirdplace appearance.

o a quick review of this year’s Sweet Tooth runners-up, and excluding the water ice category, there is a common theme: Termini Bros., 1523 S. Eighth St. and 1538 Packer Ave., appears in each one. While they may have fallen a few votes short of victory in the other categories, the establishment known for its “Gold Medal Pastry” can now celebrate its Readers’ Choice triumph in the cookie discipline. The website even includes a dropdown box entitled cookie collection, with options ranging from chocolate chips to pignoli cookies with imported nuts to the signature collection. But the cookies are just one of many goodies this Passyunk Square baking institution has mastered through its 90-plus years and three generations of experience. Brothers Joseph and Vince Termini Jr. are now leading the operation that their grandfather Giuseppe and uncle Gaetano started. Isgro placed an order for second while Poitito’s boxed up third.

hen someone typically mentions the name Frank in these parts, the rst assumption is that they may be referring to the chairman of the board, Frank Sinatra. However, as much as people wanted the late legendary crooner to be from South Philly, Hoboken, N.J. was his town. Frank Palumbo, on the other hand, made his mark by opening a namesake restaurant that was known as a showplace for Italian food and stars, including Sinatra. A 1994 re destroyed the landmark. When Lou Galdo decided to get in the catering hall business in ’99, he wanted to do things just like Frank did. Fifteen years later, Galdo’s, 1933 W. Moyamensing Ave., also is earning patrons’ high marks. “I am humbled,” Galdo said of the Readers’ Choice honor. “I am very honored the people of South Philly voted us No. 1. Winning an award in South Philly that has to do with food is a great honor because it’s the mecca of dining.” Galdo said more than 50 percent of his business comes from South Philadelphia, but customers also come from Washington Township, N.J., Delaware and Northeast Philly, to name a few. The facility has been home to a never-ending variety of events

efore walking into DiBruno Bros., in the Italian Market, 930 S. Ninth St., it’s a good idea to prepare the taste buds for a culinary journey across the Atlantic Ocean. On many days, including a recent springlike Saturday, customers were lined up from one end of the store to the other getting a crash course sampling a wide variety of products. After all, the establishment that dates back to 1939 bills itself as being “culinary pioneers.” The system seems to be working to perfection as the Bella Vista establishment has been served with top honors in the Italian specialty store category. “We try to do our best with every customer, before they take the product home,” assistant manager Joe Green said. “Everybody who works here is very educated. “We try to stay at the forefront with what we are offering. We are trying to remain current, and not rest on our laurels.” The specialty grocery store, started by Danny and Joe DiBruno, brothers from Italy known for their hard work, now has five locations around the city for their loyal customers to get their taste on. Pastificio’s and Matteo’s split a serving of second while Mancuso’s and Talluto’s shared the third-place display.

Ten Pennies focuses on a large geographic area, but Catania, who was born and raised in South Philly, has a special place in her heart for the surrounding neighborhoods. And, even with the majority of the business being computerized nowadays, she still makes sure her staff provides a personal touch. “I ask what their needs are and whether it’s a birthday, wedding or funeral tribute, and that I would like to be given the honor of doing their flowers,” Catania said. The shop creates stunning floral arrangements for more weddings than she can count, but the owner treats each account as if they are her only client. “I give them the very best of me, and it trickles down to my designers,” she said. “I won’t accept anything that is not the best and each person is treated equally.” Petal Pusher blossomed in second place, with Cedrone Flowers planting a thirdplace seed.

Broad St., was chosen as the go-to place for funeral arrangements. “I think it’s our longtime ties to the neighborhood,” co-owner Mark Rago said about winning the top spot. “We’re going into three generations of growing up in South Philly.” In the same location for over 55 years, the funeral home offers everything from tradi-

tional burial and cremations with or without a service. Five years ago, the facility underwent a major remodeling and enlargement, which made the site handicap accessible. The space is equipped with multiple visitation parlors, a lounge, and casket, vault and urn selection rooms. When he was just 16-years-old and a sophomore at St. John Neumann High School, Rago started working for founder Samuel Monti, 87, at the suggestion of his school counselor. The now 49-year-old resident of 19th and Jackson streets initially began setting up flowers at the funeral home after school, then decided to attend mortuary school and acquired his license. He has been working with Monti, who remains quite active in the community and business, ever since. The owner’s daughter, Carolyn

Monti, is also a licensed funeral director on site and according to Rago the only licensed female funeral director in the area. “We are honored and we would like to thank everyone who put us on top and who voted for us,” Rago said. “I enjoy what we do, we get to meet a lot of wonderful people here and some people we have dealt with over the years have become my closest friends.” Vincent Gangemi Funeral Home, Inc. looked solemn in second place, with Pennsylvania Burial Co. plotting a third-place finish.

■ Right at home

B

arbara Capozzi still has found memories of hanging out with her father Ludwig S. Capozzi Jr., who built the original Packer Park, as a child. At

the age of 6, she was hanging out in the sample homes that sold for $11,000. Several years later, in 1992 to be exact, she got married and ofclaly moved into the neighborhood. Capozzi also started working for her dad on Packer Avenue. It was just the latest chapter in this lifelong love affair with the community where she has served as president of its civic association since ’94. Readers’ Choice voters seem to share a similar passion as they crowned it with the top neighborhood honor. “On behalf of the Packer Park Civic Association, we are thrilled to be voted best neighborhood to live (and work too),” Capozzi said. “We all work hard here to motivate our residents to keep the appearance of their homes lovely, green, well lit and clean. We also work hard through the SCSSD [Sports Complex Special Services District] to keep our area protected from stadium goers and the millions of fans that descend on our area annually. The SCSSD also augments the City’s dwindling services to plant and prune our street trees, to clean streets after stadium events and to host community events for all of our residents.” Like many of its neighboring communities, Packer Park is home to some treasured assets that include FDR Park, Broad Street and Pattison Avenue, and its ample green space, 18-hole public golf course and tennis courts; being within walking distance of South Philadelphia’s entertainment mecca known also known as the sports complex; and, of course, the friendly residents. “Neighbors look out for neighbors, which helps keep crime down and strengthens the community’s stability,” Capozzi said. Like her fellow neighbors, she plans on calling Packer Park home for many more years to come. “What keeps me here are the many wonderful neighbors and also FDR Park, I wish I could convince everyone from every neighborhood to love FDR Park as their own backyard,” Capozzi said. Marconi claimed a second-place residency while Girard Estate plotted third.

T

he human condition abounds in uncertainty, but for 4,500 parishioners, Epiphany of Our Lord Church, 1121 Jackson St., registers as a surety in securing salvation. The 109-year-old worship site has achieved blessed status, receiving readers’ nods as the top church. “There’s such a strong love for and commitment to the parish,” 10th-year pastor Rev. John Pidgeon said of the Lower Moyamensing location’s allure. “The pride our members have in our mission is evident with each interaction. Offering daily services and four weekend masses, the adored structure likewise pleases the religious figure, who feels honored to

Mercy LIFE: A World of Difference in Senior Care Answers to caregivers’ frequently asked questions When exploring senior care options, the multitude of choices can become overwhelming and confusing. Mercy LIFE, an all-inclusive adult day program, helps seniors maintain their independence so they can remain living in their homes or with family, and have access to services that keep them active and engaged in the community. Here are the most frequently asked questions Dr. Donna Raziano, Mercy LIFE Chief Medical Officer, answers for caregivers. How does Mercy LIFE differ from other senior care offerings? The most important factor is that participants in the Mercy LIFE program prefer to live at home versus a nursing home. Mercy LIFE’s model of compassionate, quality care focuses on treating the whole senior – body, mind and spirit. The skilled interdisciplinary care team works together 24/7 to meet each patient’s unique needs on-site at one of our Mercy LIFE centers as well as in patients’ homes – no more waiting for appointments or making last minute, unnecessary trips to the pharmacy. Mercy LIFE provides all medications to patients - - with no co-pays. Will my loved one transition into the program smoothly? Mercy LIFE is designed to keep seniors living safely and independently, while providing an outlet for them to access healthcare and connect with friends and peers. Mercy LIFE recreation therapists organize more than 400 activities per month to engage participants, including pet therapy, poker tournaments, yoga, cooking classes and garden club. Mercy LIFE staff also plan off-site field trips and special events throughout the year. Nationally, approximately 40% of seniors suffer from depression. How does Mercy LIFE keep seniors physically healthy, which we know can contribute to keeping depression at bay? Participants in the Mercy LIFE program have constant access to their personalized medical team. Skilled physicians and nurses ensure patients take their medications, and will even deliver medications to home if needed. When necessary, we can deliver meals to participants’ homes, too. Proper nutrition is a great way to combat depression. At the Mercy LIFE Adult Day Centers we focus on socialization and spirituality, key factors in maintaining quality of life and successful aging.

READERS’ CHOICE celebrate the example of Jesus Christ, especially whenever Lent is upon him and his flock. As the 40-day period or sacrifice and contemplation commenced last week on Ash Wednesday, he expects believers to show their devotion in full force and awaits each chance to proclaim gratitude with them. “I love our community because it understands what is at the heart of the Gospel, which is caring for others,” Pidgeon said of time within the space, whose adjoining rectory supports that message by hosting weekly food distributions and serving as an aid for those struggling financially. The church, which could again come to host the parish’s Italian Festival, requires some upkeep, with Pidgeon eager to bring it to fruition to honor the example of its builders and prior generations of devotees. Unaware of its architectural style, he has divine knowledge of its integrity. “We’ve been fortunate to have a rich history and look forward to even more,” Pidgeon said. “Thank you for the recognition.” St. Monica Church looked beatific in second place, while Stella Maris Church saved souls in third.

Anyone lucky enough to be in on the tutelage of the Lombardi’s father-and-son dynamic will certainly need to love all of it: beef, veal, lamb, poultry, turkey, roasts, chops, steaks.

■ The Living Arts’ home

T

he TLA, or the Theatre of the Living Arts, 334 South St., has been a staple of South Street for almost four decades. What used to be a regular home for The Rocky Horror Picture Show and

visiting theater acts has seen a wide variety of bands perform and touch down over the years, including: Jay Z, Justin Timberlake, Arcade Fire, Bob Dylan, Kings of Leon, Katy Perry, Paul Simon, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, the Black Keys, Coldplay and even Tom Jones and the Rolling Stones. To name a few. It’s no huge surprise that TLA earned the Reader’s Choice for best music venue. Practice makes perfect. With a capacity of about 1,000, over the last dozen months the venue’s sold out for talent like Alt-J, Gogol Bordello, Thomas Rhett, and that magical collaboration between D’Angelo and Questlove. It’s easily one of the best spots to catch a concert, comedian or dance until you’re sweaty, but part of the appeal may be the after-show bevy of food and drink options. “There is an incredible history of the TLA

ason Douglas is all about entertaining his crowd. Whether it’s at a wedding, bat mitzvah or church event, he makes sure everyone is having fun, thus making him South Philly’s favorite disc jockey. In 1985, he and his friend Valentino DiGiorgio started a booking agency, which would send out DJs to various events, but the DJs sometimes didn’t show up, so he was forced to cover for them. “I had a ball,” he said. “I [couldn’t] believe people [got] paid for going to people’s parties,” Douglas said. His clients included many local television stations and gigs that often took him to New York City, but he grew tired of the traveling. Now his company consists of three DJs and sticks to mostly local gigs, but the entertainment factor is still present. “We literally have people put chairs by the dance floor who sit there and watch,” he said. “It’s a show.” It’s all about determining the vibe of the party and choosing the appropriate music, which could be anything from hip-hop to disco. “If we don’t have it, all we have to do is make a phone call and it’s there,” he said. While his favorite event is the annual Christmas party for the South Philadelphia Lions Clubs, an organization that assists those with visual impairments, regardless of the festivity, his focus remains on the guests. “We’re having fun with grandma, we’re having fun with your little cousin,” Douglas said. “We become part of your family, and that’s what South Philly is really about.” Eddie Tully laid down a beat in second, and Mike Corny spun in third.

t’s possible that the number one reason Anthony Lombardi and his dad, Vince, won for best butcher shop is tradition. The Lombardis run a shop that has been serving Packer Park ne quality proteins for 13 years and often speaks to the nostalgia that creates cravings born of memories around a dinner table, or in a noisy kitchen. But Lombardi’s Prime Meats doesn’t just serve the immediate neighborhood: they serve “a lot of South Jersey, people in Delaware, all of the suburbs, they come from everywhere,” Anthony said. “Especially if they grew up around this neighborhood or their parents did and they’re used to what their parents did. They make the trip.” They come for the family’s specialties, like sausage (“Our sausages are really big because it’s all homemade and we have a lot of different varieties”), chicken cutlet (“We go through about 2,000 pounds of chicken cutlet in a week. It’s the way we trim it and slice it really thin,” Anthony said, holding up a paper-thin sheet of poultry), or prime beef (“We use hanging beef. It comes on a hook and it’s prime. It’s a grade above what you can really get in a box”). Their pristinely clean shop on Packer Avenue hasn’t always been their home. They used to operate at another spot, at 20th and Jackson, but then they moved when they saw their current location was up for sale. “We gutted it to the studs and redid the whole store from top to bottom.” With a new home, the Lombardis had to find some good help. And that wasn’t easy. “Many people don’t know how to break

on South Street. I have to say we’re most proud of this honor and the incredible night we’ve enjoyed over the years,” James Sutcliffe, Live Nation’s VP of Marketing, who’s been working with the TLA since 1989, said. The TLA offers a great in-between capacity, as evidenced by second- and thirdplace winners, the Wells Fargo Center and Boot & Saddle respectively.

READERS’ CHOICE ness, snagging local band honors, is now a 10-piece with fresh blood, and they’re poised to preserve a longstanding legacy of moving dance oors and entertaining crowds. Specializing in pop, R&B and oldies standards, all the way up to modern top-40 hits, the band has earned fans at festivals, weddings and private parties. The group performs between 60 to 70 gigs a year. So maybe it’s sheer exposure and work ethic that gets Danny Vanore’s troupe on stage in front of unsuspecting partiers; it’s certainly something that’s earned them fans over time. “Longevity – we’ve been around. We’ve definitely got the South Philly festivals tied up,” he said, referring to Columbus Day festivities, Italian Market celebrations or church functions. He’s particularly proud of some of his newest additions: Justin Gonzalez (lead vocals/congas/valve trombone) and Erica Gagliardi (vocals). For now, Vanore’s happy to let his team do more singing, especially Tom Nataloni: “He’s like the frontman of the band now — I handed the torch over to him a few years ago.” Vanore may sing only about 10 percent of lead vocal parts these days, but his in-between-set DJing and gig-emceeing are clearly still crucial. Real kept it real in second, while a handful of other acts tired for third.

■ Still ‘Got Love’

T

here is nothing wrong with the golden oldies or the Golden Boys, for that matter. Judging by the nal tallies in the South Philly celebrity category, Readers’ Choice voters feel the same way as they once again crowned Bobby Rydell, who has claimed multiple victories in this rotating ballot item, the winner. The singer, coming off two weekend performances with old friends Frankie Avalon and Fabian, thanked his fans for the support. Rydell may reside outside of the city limits these days, but he hasn’t lost that passionate love for the place he still considers home. “You can take the boy out of South Philly, but you can never take the South Philly out of the boy,” the former Lower Moyamensing resident said. The famous crooner, who earned his star on the Philadelphia Music Alliance Walk of Fame in 1987, is still known to frequent his favorite neighborhood restaurants every Wednesday. When he recently had a fellow performer fly in all the way from Australia, Rydell made sure South Philly was part of the cultural experience. “I took them to one of my favorite places, and that was Pat’s Steaks,” Rydell said. While his songs may no longer be considered top-40 hits like “We’ve Got Love” was in 1959 (No. 6 on the Billboard chart), he remains a local icon who even has the

2400 block of South 11th Street named after him. No matter where he is performing, the people of South Philadelphia will remain on his mind. “[The people of South Philly] make sure you never forget where you came from, which I love and adore,” he said. Jerry “The Geator” Blavat danced to a second-place beat while Avalon remained golden in third.

oving her calling to instruct teenagers, Dana Smith has reveled in her seven-year stint as an Archdiocese of Philadelphia employee, encouraging learners to seek greatness via their mastery of English and language arts. The 29-yearold hire at St. Anthony of Padua Regional Catholic School, 913 Pierce St., can easily make a case for the rewards of nding and fostering a passion, as she has earned top elementary school teacher recognition. “I value being able to feed off their curiosity and energy every year,” the resident of Eighth Street and Washington Avenue said of her vocation, especially the last two years at the East Passyunk Crossing site. “I enjoy the interactions so much, nothing ever feels like work. It’s the best teaching experience of my life.” The Bella Vista inhabitant, a graduate of St. Maria Goretti High School, earned her Masters in secondary education with an English concentration at Widener University but considers her parents, Theresa, a fellow St. Anthony’s faculty member, and Robert, a recently deceased police officer, her primary instructors. Their emphasis on education as the best boon has guided Smith, whose resumé includes time at St. Gabriel School and the shuttered Annunciation B.V.M., to promote full immersion in one’s academic growth. “I believe Catholic education is the way to go,” the seventh- and eighth-grade overseer said. “Particularly for me, it’s bred such a feeling of home.”

Smith has enhanced her credibility to penning a book and is pursuing a doctorate. She enjoys seeing her students’ willingness to explore novelty and looks forward to observing that as a parent, as she and her fiance plot their October nuptials. “I’m extremely honored and it touches my heart,” Smith said. “I hope my dad is proud of me up in heaven.” St. Anthony’s Theresa Smith achieved second honors, with Our Lady of Hope Regional Catholic School’s Marisa Messina meriting third-place praise.

■ Still strutting

N

ew Year’s Day in South Philadelphia is synonymous with the Mummers Parade and so many wait to see the ornate costumes and choreographed routines of the Fancy Brigades. The brigades’ creative entertainment makes them unforgettable. With that being said, it’s no wonder why the Vikings were voted best Mummers Brigade. According to captain Gerald Roccia, the group always tries to incorporate a different aspect into each routine — whether it’s within their dance moves or

Dana Smith

creatively arranging their props — to increase the excitement of the parade. “We try to be different so we don’t get stale and when we start to put the show together, we think about how we can do a theme or storyline a little differently,” he said. The South Philly Vikings performed their first show in 1986 and have been moving up the ranks ever since. Over the last decade, the tight-knit clan has taken home the top spot six times. In 2010, they appeared on the NBC reality series “America’s Got Talent.” Gathering at the group’s clubhouse at 1815 S. 11th Street, they usually start prepping for the parade after the serenade around mid-January. At the time of this issue, the Mummers have already turned in many themes and ideas for next year’s event. Even with all the hard work ahead, Roccia, who has led the team for the past two years, was excited about winning. “It’s tremendous and for our fans and whoever voted for us to recognize that we’re good at something in our neighborhood is great,” he said. The Jesters proved a funny fit for second place, with Quaker City resting peacefully in third.

T

hough he has grown less ery with age, Carl Arrigale has not reduced his regard for rearing great basketball players. With 10 Catholic League championships, six City titles and three State crowns, the overseer of the boys’ team at Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., has become accustomed to receiving congratulations, so it should come as no surprise that readers have dubbed him the top high school coach. “We’re all about creating a culture of caring and winning,” the resident of the 2900 block of South 15th Street said of his 15 seasons. “We know we have to be committed to excel and not to give anybody an inch because they’ll run with it.” The Marconi dweller has campaigned for classroom diligence, too, with many of his charges earning college scholarships. As proof of his influence on their growth, numerous past players keep in contact with their mentor, including a few who attended Feb. 24’s Catholic League title game, where Arrigale tied the all-time mark for parochial titles and immediately stressed the key to his success has come from his roster members. “One group sets the tone for the next and so on and so on,” he said. “They’re enthused about being great leaders, and it’s always good when I can see the older guys again because that means they had fun. I’ve had my share, too.” With a penchant for posting victories that dates back to his days of coaching younger students at the former King of Peace School, Arrigale remains humble and hungry. “It’s great to take on challenges,” he said. “We’re always ready to do just that, so this award is more about the guys than me.” Neumann-Goretti girls’ basketball coach Letty Santarelli netted a second-place finish, while Southern football coach Frank Natale tackled third.

Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., relying on plenty of Palestra experience, rallied not only to break hearts but also to make history, becoming only the second program to capture six consecutive championships. For their composure and consummate devotion to hard work, the East Passyunk Crossingbased ballers nd themselves on the readers’ pick for top high school team. “Aside from teaching us how to be better offensive and defensive players, everyone involved, especially [coach] Carl [Arrigale],

“I have a lot of pride in South Philly, the resident of the 1100 block of South Eighth Street said, “and anything that I can do to see our kids do better, I want to make it happen.” The Passyunk Square dweller has assisted hundreds of local youngsters through such measures as junior team play and the National Junior Tennis and Learning program. Along with offering tactical tips, he has preached personal responsibility to attendees at spaces such as Barry Playground and Guerin Recreation Center, and within educational settings like Edwin M. Stanton School and Girard Academic Music Program, with enrollees at the latter proving so receptive to his message that they have joined him as assistants. “Many parents have told me their children are doing better in school and at home because of our time together, so that’s awesome to have helped make possible,” Hughes said. Preparing for spring instruction, he hopes new boys and girls join him in enjoying the sport of a lifetime. “It makes me proud to see local kids do well in anything,” Hughes said, “so if I can make tennis one of the activities they excel in, I’m thrilled.” Anderson Monarchs multi-sport coach Steve Bandura looked regal in second, while Delaware Valley Youth Athletic Association baseball coach Joe Messina slid into third.

shows us how to have heart,” senior forward Tony Toplyn said. “That’s something, along with the championship mentality, that’s going to help us at the next level.” Along with their parochial prowess, the 24-4 Saints also secured their sixth consecutive District 12 City title last month and are seeking a state crown, too, which would be their fourth in five seasons. “We always feel we have a target on our backs,” junior guard Lamarr Kimble said. “What’s important, though, is that we believe in ourselves and are accountable to each other.” He and Toplyn stressed their institution encourages their achieving academic ascendancy, too, and they value that element, as it helps their competitive nature. Having passed many on-court tests with flying col-

ors, they are grateful to have attracted their neighbors’ support. “We give all we have,” Kimble said. “That’s what being at Neumann-Goretti is all about.” The Southern Rams football squad scored a second-place finish, while the Lady Saints hoopsters swished a third-place honor.

E

namored with excellence, Bryan Hughes has spent the last three years helming the South Philadelphia Tennis Association, his initiative for spurring growth and development among neighborhood children. For his dedication to his native turf, the instructor has garnered top youth/recreation league coach honors.

wo years ago when people mentioned the name Nick Foles, the immediate response would’ve likely been “who?” At the time, he was an unproven 6-foot-6 rookie quarterback out of the University of Arizona that the Philadelphia Eagles selected in the third round. Like many newcomers, the athlete had to earn his starting spot. When he nally did last season, his strong following of fans took notice and named Foles their favorite Philly pro athlete. “It’s an honor that I really cherish because it’s voted on by the Philadelphia community,” he said. “The fact that the readers thought enough of me to pencil my name in for this award is very humbling.” Foles earned a spot in the Pro Bowl after leading all NFL passers in quarterback rating (119.2). His strong individual numbers helped the Eagles capture the NFC East crown. Besides enjoying that winning feeling, Foles seems to be really getting into a comfort zone with his hometown fans. “I am very thankful to play in Philadelphia because, to me, it’s the greatest sports town in the world. The way the fans of this city rally around us through thick and thin, in season and out, is simply amazing,” he said. Phillies veteran Chase Utley secured his familiar position at second while teammate Cole Hamels placed a healthy third.

On The Move

“Last summer it was really, really hot, and the pool is a great place to be when it’s hot,” recreation leader Anthony Spadaccini said. The pool has much to offer youngsters with one-hour swim lessons at noon and a swim team that practices 4 to 5 p.m. daily. The squad competes in a South Philly district meet each August, with a chance to move onto a citywide competition. The pool also offers an adult swim in the final hour of the day, allowing those age 25 or older to have it to themselves. The site, named as top park/playground in the 2011 Readers’ Choice Awards, was a budget cuts casaulty in ’09, but since then, the number of swimmers has increased, especially among new residents, Spadaccini, who resides at Broad Street and Oregon Avenue, said. “I just hope more neighborhood people come to the pool,” he said. “A lot of locals go down to the shore, but as an alternative to that, I’d love them to come out [to Barry].” Murphy Recreation Center dove in for silver and Ridgeway Pool swam for the bronze.

P

lanet Fitness, 2350 W. Oregon Ave., may be known as “The Judgement Free Zone,” but readers ruled it is the area’s top gym/health club. Even though the gym’s general manager Brian Turner describes the location, customer service, hours and friendly staff as inviting factors that keep the spot’s 16,000 patrons coming back, there’s one big aspect that sets Planet Fitness apart from its counterparts. “The price, to be honest with you,” Turner said. Memberships typically start at $10 a month, and include 24/7 access to the gym. While most gyms tend to have peak times, exercisers flock to the Marconi site to use its 100 pieces of cardio and 60 pieces of strength equipment at all hours. Aside from the local franchise, which opened Dec. 31, 2008, the New Hampshire-based company has other Philly franchises, and despite choices of clubs in Fishtown, Germantown, Northeast Philly, Roxborough and West Philly, the South Philly club remains popular. “If you work out in the city and there’s not a location closer to you, you definitely come here,” Turner said. But with the abundance of city gyms, Turner was pleased that readers lifted Planet Fitness to No. 1. “Especially with all the gyms in the area and all the competition, it’s a great honor,” he said. Fitness Works flexed in second while SWEAT Fitness weighed in at third.

ason Douglas almost went to college on a soccer scholarship. Instead, he chose to continue the family business. Now that leap of faith has resulted in DanceAdelphia, 1100 Snyder Ave., earning top plaudits for ballet program. Douglas sets out to teach a basic ballet foundation that could be taken to the next level if desired. “That’s my strength — that we can teach a basic ballet and that’s where I stop,” he said of the program that molds students ages 3 to mid-20s. “It’s a good foundation to get you through any kind of dance.” His students have taken various paths, with some coming back from time to time to take a class. One of his former pupils, a dancer in Las Vegas, recently needed a pep talk. “It was such a joy to talk to her for 15 minutes and give her some good advice,” he said. His current students are very inspired to succeed, coming in early and staying after class to practice. Douglas is forced to start pushing them out of the door sometimes in order to close the studio. “I can’t buy that, and that’s one of the reasons I don’t leave. It keeps me here. Why would I leave something so good to pursue something I’m not sure about?” he said referencing his own career, which included declining a spot in the Broadway musical “Cats” to stay close to his Lower Moyamensing studio. Joanna Studio of Dance pliéd in second position while Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School and The Rock School for Dance Education balanced in third position.

any of those who take Pilates classes with Joanne Renzi have been doing so for quite some time. Their dedication and love for her classes resulted in them voting her studio, Fitness Works, 714 Reed St., as the best place to take a Pilates class. After having three children, she joined a gym. When an instructor was going to get fired if she couldn’t find a substitute, she begged Renzi to cover her class. The rest was history. Renzi obtained certifications and experience. Then, in 1996, she founded Fitness Works, now a fourlevel facility consisting of multiple workout rooms, a pool, a Latin dance company, and CrossFIT that her son Joseph Renzi runs at 1414 S. Darien St. About eight years ago she gained interest in Pilates, a set of exercises that tones and strengthens muscles and improves flexibility and posture. “You very rarely saw Pilates in a gym [at the time] because it was mostly used for dancers,” Renzi said. She specializes in reformer Pilates, which utilizes the piece of equipment for which it is named. Fitness Works has six reformers and offers six weekly Pilates classes with varying difficulties. “It’s a great way to exercise for anyone who’s injured, anyone who needs more flexibility, anyone who has problems with core strength,” Renzi said. She is immensely proud of her program, and her students’ commitment proves its success. “They impress me,” she said. “I’ve had the same women in my advanced class for well over five years now, and every Tuesday at six o’clock, they are always here.” DanceAdelphia toned in second and Christian Street YMCA stretched in third.

An East Passyunk Crossing dweller will lead the laughs at a Queen Village storytelling celebration. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

H

illary Rea could probably count many physicians and pharmaceutical companies as enemies, as she has spent four-anda-half years having merriment make prescribed medications meet their match. The 31-year-old has crafted a commended career as a tale spinner and laugh inducer and guarantees guffaws when she hosts Wednesday’s 7:30 p.m. “Tell Me a Story: Friend and Foes” event at Shot Tower Coffee, 542 Christian St. “South Philly is my favorite neighborhood to perform in,” the East Passyunk Crossing inhabitant said Friday at the Queen Village establishment that has served as the setting for the “Tell Me a Story” series since the brainchild’s May 2011 inception. “It’s welcoming of self-starters, and I appreciate its aesthetics, so I want to connect residents with funny people and encourage kinship throughout communities.” In positing positivity, Rea, whose helpers for next week include Marconi native Dave Terruso, is also avoiding championing the cutthroat nature of numerous comedic showcases, as her bimonthly gatherings focus on camaraderie instead of competition. Though the themes constantly change, she keeps constant her infatuation with morphing her sensitive and dramatic sides to deliver accounts that often depend on digging for resolution among confusing circumstances.

S t a f f p h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e


LIFESTYLES “I like letting people into my life because they can likely relate to much of it,” the raconteur said of her material, much of which derives from an ’11 Artist-in-Residence role through Greensboro, N.C.’s Elsewhere Artist Collaborative. “I like telling the same story over and over again, as there’s always a chance to leave room to elaborate or shift the approach, but I’m hoping to generate new stuff soon and turn my stories into a book of humorous essays.” Rea, who initiated the local celebration through a suggestion by Shot Tower’s husband-and-wife owners and who confessed her Wednesday offering will most likely deal with adding as an inadvertent adversary someone whom her Central High School inner circle disliked, loves the space’s atmosphere and intends to uphold the peace by invoking humility instead of vulgarity to foster hilarity. With a childlike filter to her creations, she favors conveying whimsy to being dirty, but no matter the scope of her content or that of her peers, she delights in delighting the masses. “There’s tons of ways to express your comedic or storytelling enthusiasm,” Rea said. “It’s pretty apparent we’re up there to entertain and not take ourselves too seriously. The message behind ‘Tell Me a Story’ could easily be that we have to use

■ s o u t h p h i l l y r e v i e w.c o m

perspective to help us to see the humor in everyday matters.” THOUGH HUMOR HAS helped her to become a noteworthy comedian and storyteller, Rea had initially suspected her vocal chords might merit praise by belting songs, as her Center City-based upbringing revolved around singing. A musical theater buff, she found herself sold on “Rent” as a teenager and attended New York University to advance her acumen. “I was super bored with Philadelphia and had often visited New York, so I looked forward to the chance to grow in another location,” the ebullient blonde said. Instead of figurative fights with other figures for distinction, Rea experienced an internal battle during her Big Apple stint and came to feel she did not fit into the world of professional singing. Three years after graduation, she accepted an English teaching position in Japan, a yearlong assignment that delighted her immensely, except for the relentless endowment of snow, which she deemed far worse than this winter’s output. With comedy as a budding interest and performance as a preference through recollections of childhood time portraying funny characters, she scored an Arden Theatre Co. apprenticeship program

gig while in the Land of the Rising Sun and soon developed a “true South Philly story” through the Mummers Parade. “What an experience!” she exclaimed of her Murray Comic Club-enabled existence with the Vaudevillains New Year’s Brigade, a boon that saw her co-captain two Jan. 1 endeavors. “The Mummers and so much else have helped me to believe I can be a decent presence in the comedy world.” Since her Sept. ’09 debut, Rea has evolved into much more than that modest description, with her website chronicling an impressive number of appearances, hosting duties and award-winning efforts, notably two First Person StorySlam stops at World Cafe Live and the April ’13 Moth StorySlam confab in Brooklyn. Having established alliances with prominent entities like The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts and the Center City-situated Stockton Rush Bartol Foundation, she has also brought her talent to her beloved South Philly through Shot Tower; Connie’s Ric Rac, 1132 S. Ninth St.; L’Etage, 624 S. Sixth St.; and Adobe Café, 1919 E. Passyunk Ave., where she hosted February’s second annual Veggie Bowl Comedy Spectacular, and numbers Passyunk Square’s Barrymore Award winner Jen Childs, whom she assisted during last year’s “Women and Comedy: A Night

of Storytelling” for 1812 Productions, among her colleagues. “I love being fortunate to know so many people who are committed to their disciplines,” Rea, who has not completely abandoned her vocal training as evidenced by the popular YouTube video “Marry Me, Miss Mary,” in which as the titular character she wards off the advances of the 5-year-old, Terruso-voiced Stanley, said. “I can’t see growing tired of that.” When not leaving adults in hysterics, the gregarious individual provides youngsters with an appreciation for musical theater, art and drama tutelage through the Kimmel Center and the Arden. No matter the intent of a given gig or job, Rea aspires for sincerity and sensitivity. For someone who upon her first appearance brought a laugh track because she was unsure how her brand of humor would fare, she has certainly come to stand out as a standup. “Philadelphia is the best place to produce independent comedy,” she said, “and I’m thrilled to have had so many opportunities to do just that.” SPR For more information, e-mail info@hillaryrea.com.

arsenal and found out that the guarantee of the international community is worth about as much as the warranty on that Chinese iron you purchased in a dollar store. There is also a lesson here. If you keep your nukes like North Korea, we keep our hands off you and if you’re lucky, the worst thing that happens is we send you Dennis Rodman twice a year. Give up your nukes and if you get in a jam, your emergency call goes into voice mail at the United Nations. The U.S. and Europe will gripe a lot about the Putin takeover. President Barack Obama and the European leaders will punish him. Word has it we plan to cancel his subscription to Men’s Health and once again take Russian vodka off the shelves. Ed Snider may even stop signing Russian hockey players again, which he was going to do anyway after Ilya Bryzgalov. In the meantime, I have a feeling that Western Ukraine will be annexed by the Russians and renamed Loserstan. I have real sympathy for non-Russians living in the Crimea. If it were me, I am not saying that I would try to curry favor with Putin, but at the least I’d be looking for a bare-chested photo of him to hang on my living room wall. I’ve already heard rumors that Mel Brooks is considering making a Broadway musical of Putin’s life. Rumored songs are “Putin Take,” “Putin on the Ritz” and “Crimea River.” “60 Minutes” televised an interview this past Sunday with former President George W. Bush, the foremost expert on Putin in the United States today. It was Bush who once said after first meeting Putin that “I looked the man in the eye. I was able to get a sense of his soul.” Bush now says that he may have had something in his eye when he was eyeing Putin. Some conservatives found themselves making unfavorable comparisons of Obama to Putin. If only Obama was as strong as Putin, a man who wrestles bears and is not afraid to go shirtless in public. Michelle Obama took exception to these comparisons when she appeared on “The View” earlier in the week. She hinted that the bears were drugged and no more dangerous than the Chicago Bears. Mrs. Obama also told Barbara Walters that her husband looks better than Putin without a shirt, but to do it in public would cause Rush Limbaugh to make references to Mandingo. As if the international crisis weren’t bad enough, scientists are predicting that an asteroid will pass closer to the earth than the moon. All three of our local TV stations announced that they will begin broadcasting at 4 a.m. to keep us updated on the asteroid’s path, with reporters stationed in Kensington, Center City and at the Shore.

Worth checking in ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

W

ith “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” Wes Anderson, cinema’s master of deadpan, bittersweet whimsy, delivers his best film yet, crafting an epic that’s both about our world and tied to the unique world of his imagination. Though it’s set in the fictional land of Zubrowka, the multi-layered narrative is unmistakably evocative of Eastern European history, with the sober backdrop of brewing wars and cultural unrest offset by the zany antics of a hotelier and his confidant. Out of a plot containing four threads that, together, span decades, the most prominent storyline concerns M. Gustave (Ralph Fiennes), the cheeky manager of the titular institution, and Zero (Tony Revolori), Gustave’s new “lobby boy” and a classic example of straight-faced, Andersonian precocity. When Madame D. (Tilda Swinton), one of many older ladies Gustave beds, dies suddenly, the hotelier is framed for her murder, and he and Zero are soon embroiled in a cat-and-mouse adventure involving a painting, baked goods, a tattoo in the shape of Mexico and a downhill skiing chase worthy of “Looney Tunes.” Anderson has made his name as a filmmaker of inimitably meticulous technique, creating pop-up-book movies wherein every frame is in its precious, calculated place. Aesthetically, “The Grand Budapest Hotel” is no different, and its mix of surgically precise photography and a grab bag of effects (miniatures, CGI, varying aspect ratios) provide all the eye candy the auteur’s fans crave. But there’s more on the table this time. Be it in “The Royal Tenenbaums” or, most

recently, “Moonrise Kingdom,” Anderson is adept at exploring human pathos, particularly when it pertains to youth; however, he’s never quite opened his heart like he does here. In addition to being uncommonly worldly, Anderson’s latest weaves, through stories being told to different listeners (an older Zero, played by F. Murray Abraham, shares his and Gustave’s hijinks with a writer played by Jude Law), an affecting abundance of romantic and paternal love spread across generations. His new film is about history, and, more importantly, what’s capable of surviving it.

eware the Ides of March!” Well, the Ides of March will be here in a few days. I don’t know about you, but I never figured out what the hell “Ides” were anyway. In the days before the Internet, we didn’t have useless knowledge at our fingertips. I guess I could’ve looked up “Ides” in my encyclopedia, but my folks had purchased a used edition that still had Woodrow Wilson as president. Now that I have Internet access, I’m too busy Googling Kim Kardashian’s sex tape to care about the Ides. I just hope the Ides don’t have something to do with more snow. I can’t afford it. Last week, I paid a guy $20 to shovel my pavement, which is no bigger than Kim Kardashian’s rear end the last time her gown split. Twenty minutes after he left, my pavement was covered with snow again. It also cost me $15.99 for a container of Prestone crystals, the kind that keeps polar bears from perishing and the bottom line of hardware stores in the black. If it snows again, I will have to file for bankruptcy. Meanwhile, the guy that shovels my pavement has made enough money to go to Florida. I always associated the Ides of March with the assassination of Julius Caesar. Maybe it’s me, but I have a sneaky suspicion that Caesar did not die of natural causes. He was found with 60 knife wounds in him, and the Roman coroner concluded he died of natural causes. I have a feeling Philadelphia Magazine will send a reporter to talk to Vince Salandria and get to the bottom of this thing. You’ve got to wonder about Caesar. He was warned to “Beware of the Ides of March” and still he went to the Forum to see the Lakers play. I understand Caesar had an old Roman calendar from the year before and thought the Ides were on the 16th. Someone should have warned the Crimea that Vladimir Putin was going to jump the gun on the Ides of March and send in Russian troops. There’s a lesson to be learned here. Putin is very protective of Russians, and only wants to protect them. The problem occurs when you wake up one morning to find Russian troops “protecting” the store that sells your favorite blini. The problem began back in 1994 when the international community persuaded the Ukraine to give up its nuclear arsenal in return for guaranteeing their territorial integrity. The Ukraine gave up its nuclear

The days of the bright sun above melting that over shipment of snow are about to be reenergized with sheer warmth. Spring is making its grand arrival one week from today, so for those who started counting down two months ago, the wait is just about over. Now that daylight savings has officially sprung forward, get outside and cherish some of the great treasures the City of Brotherly Love and its neighboring towns have to offer.

Rita’s Coconut Pie

Toasting St. Patrick

R

T

ita DiRaddo said she enjoys sharing recipes. After thumbing through her collection of favorite homemade dishes, the resident of the 800 block of Wilder Street started focusing on great Easter desserts. Sure, the holy day that is often observed with family and friends is more than a month away, but there is no rule against planning early. This will leave more time to focus on the main course and all of the side dishes. There is nothing wrong with a trial-and-error period for sampling and perfecting this pie Rita describes as “very easy and delicious.” SPR

Rosa Blanca ■ By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

M

y first taste of Cuban food occurred many years ago when I took a bite of a sandwich at a restaurant in Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood. I loved the slight sweetness in the bread and the use of pickles and mustard layered between slices of roast pork, turkey and ham. The sandwich was pressed like a panini. During the late 1990s, Cuban fare made inroads here when Cuba Libre opened in Old City and several restaurants added Cuban dishes to their menus. The trend then fizzled out. Chef Jose Garces decided to bring Cuban food to the forefront when he opened Rosa Blanca on Chestnut Street several months ago. It is a casual place with booths and a counter in the front room and a dining room in the rear. One can order anything from pork to plantains, with the former probably the protein of choice in Cuban dishes. We settled into a roomy booth, sipped a cocktail ($14) and decided to build a meal around a few small plates, a Cuban sandwich and a meal of the day to share. Croquetas de jamon ($6) are ham croquettes that are simply fried and served with a dipping sauce. The ham had a slightly salty creamy consistency that I enjoyed, and, because they were nicely seasoned, they did not need a sauce. Salt cod appeared in the frituritas de bacalao ($9). These fried fish cakes are found in island cuisine, not just in Cuba. The cod has to be soaked in water for a few days to rid it of excess salt. They were tasty and set the stage for our Cuban sandwich. Fast Break Millie’s Luncheonette & Ice Cream: 1441 W.

Calle Ocho ($9) is prepared with roast pork, chorizo, caramelized onions, pickles and Swiss cheese. Thinly-sliced roast pork married well with the spicy chorizo, the sweetness of the onions, the tang of pickles and mild cheese. The ingredients were layered on slightly sweet Cuban style bread and pressed flat. The contrast of flavors and textures was tasty, but I think the ingredients used here were on the skimpy side. A small mound of plantain chips came with the sandwich. There was a bit of a mix up before our sandwich arrived. Our server, who was knowledgeable and knew the menu well, brought us a Cubano ($8). She insisted we keep it in spite of the mix-up. It was layered with roast pork, smoked ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard. I thought the flavors melded better in this sandwich because the yellow mustard added a little kick. I also liked the smoky flavor of the ham with the mild cheese. Roast pork is often prepared for Sunday dinner in Cuba. I noticed the dinner of the day for two was cochinillo asado ($34). The pork is slow-roasted on the bone for hours in a sauce of sour oranges, herbs and onions. It is then pulled from the bone, shredded and served in a large bowl. The pork was melt-in-your-mouth tender but needed a little salt. I thought it was a bit pricey for the portion served to us. Since rice often accompanies this dish, we ordered a side of arroz moro ($6), a mix of black beans and rice that was cooked just right but also needed a dash of salt. Rosa Blanca was busy during dinner, and I noticed a gentleman making his way through the restaurant. He went from table Restaurant Review:

to table and helped to serve as well. He came over to us and helped us make a decision about dessert, insisting we sample three sweets to end our meal. Tres leches ($5) was a chocolate cake that was not a bit cloyingly sweet. Pastel de pina ($4) was an island version of pineapple upside down cake, baked with fresh sweet pineapple. Flan is probably the dessert of choice in a number of Spanishspeaking countries and restaurants. The pastry chef bakes a light flan de vanilla ($4) and adds a little fresh orange juice to the custard. Rosa Blanca is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Pesto’s Zuppe di Pesce

J

ohn Varallo loves pleasing patrons of Ristorante Pesto, 1915 S. Broad St., his 11-yearold homage to his Campania,

Chef John Varallo

Ristorante Pesto Owners: John and Concetta Varallo Opened: 2003 1915 S. Broad St. 215-336-8380 ristorantepesto.com

Italy roots, so much that he uses their satisfaction as inspiration to become a paisan to every possible palate. With recent inclusion in the “Best Chefs America” compilation, the 58-year-old seems destined to delight diners well into the future, especially through his Zuppe di Pesce. “People love it,” the Girard Estate resident said of the massive option. “Since I enjoy seeing their expressions when they find something appealing, that makes me feel so proud.” The celebrated cook runs the East Passyunk Crossing establishment with his wife, Concetta, duplicating the success they shared in owning Io E Tu Ristorante, formerly 1514 S. Ninth St. Having arrived in the United States in 1971 with plenty of schooling, Varallo knew food would foster his fortune and began his adventure at Termini Bros., 1523 S. Eighth St., eventually teaming with sibling Mike to open Varallo

Bros. Bakery, 1639 S. 10th St., a decade later. “Life in a bakery is great, but at a restaurant, you get more of a sense of customers’ enjoyment,” Varallo said of the last two decades of his culinary journey. Mastery of his mission has meant many happy stomachs have met his acquaintance, particularly through his aquatic designs. With Lent in full gear, refraining from meat has rarely sounded better. “Like everything,” Varallo said, “the Zuppe di Pesce comes from my heart.”

DIRECTIONS: Combine all the seafood items together, and repeat the process

for the other ingredients, except for the white wine and the sauce. Add the materials to a large pan, adding the flounder and the wine last, and cook on high over a stove for 10 to 15 minutes, applying a lid to avoid spillage. Serve with linguine or toasted bread, and apply the sauce. Varallo says the dish is designed for one person but recommends sharing, as the result is quite large.

SHERIFF’S SALE Properties

to

be

sold by JEWELL WILLIAMS Sheriff on Tuesday, April 1, 2014 at First

District Plaza, 3801 Market Street, at 10:00 AM. (EST) Conditions of Sheriff’s Sale for JUDICIAL/FORECLOSURE SALE

Ten percent of the highest bid for each property auctioned off shall be deposited in 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 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 certified check, attorney’s check or money order with the Sheriff. The balance of the purchase money must be deposited in 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 certified checks, attorney’s checks or money orders made pay-

able 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. Prospective purchasers are directed to the Web site of the Philadelphia Bureau of Revision of Taxes, (BRT) brtweb.phila. gov for a fuller description of the properties listed. Properties can be looked up by the BRT number – which should be cross checked with the address. Prospective purchasers are also directed to the Room 154 City Hall, 215-6861483 and to its website philadox. phila.gov and to its website at http://philadox.phila.gov where they can view the deed to each individual property and find the boundaries of the property. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE NATURE, LOCATION, CONDITION AND BOUNDARIES OF THE PROPERTIES THEY SEEK TO PURCHASE. The BRT # refers to a unique number assigned by the City Bureau of Revision of Taxes to each property in the City for the purpose of assessing it for taxes. This number can be used to obtain descriptive information about the property from the BRT website. Effective Date: July 7, 2006

The letters C.P., Court of Common Pleas; O.C., Orphans’ Court; Q.S., Court of Quarter Sessions; C.C., County Court - indicate the Court out of which the writ of execution issues under which the sale is made: S. 1941. 223. means September Term, 1941. 223, the term and number of the docket entry; the figures following show the amount of debt; and the name following is that of the attorney issuing the writ. Attention is called to the provisions of Act No.104, approved July 27, 1955, which requires owners of properties which are used, designed or intended to be used by three or more families, or of commercial establishments which contain one or more dwelling units, to deliver to the buyers of such properties a use registration permit at the time of settlement, under certain terms and conditions. Sheriff Sales are not subject to provisions of the said Act and the Sheriff will, therefore, not deliver use registration permits in connection with any sales conducted by him. Very truly yours, JEWELL WILLIAMS Sheriff City and County of Philadelphia
