We were thrilled a few months ago when it was announced that Chef Michael O'Halloran of Bistro 7 on Third Street in Old City had acquired the former Sovalo location in Northern Liberties and would be converting it into a Hong Kong street food-style restaurant, inspired by visits to the Hong Kong home of the chef's wife and partner, Sophia Lee. And now we're even more excited, as it appears Kong is nearing its opening, currently is slated for July, with menu items like dumplings, noodle bowls, steamed buns all capping out at $20. We'll post more details as we receive them!

The summer keeps slipping away, and with it opportunities for leisurely outdoors activities. Menupages reminds us that summer is the time for picnics, and that it's not too late to enjoy meals al fresco on a blanket. They'll be posting weekly on local parks that are ideal dining rooms; first up is Penn Treaty Park, which gets a thumbs up. We are embarrassed to say we were totally unfamiliar; seems like other folks are too, since it remains at least "somewhat uncrowded." Not for long!
