Some neighbors can rely on each other for a cup of sugar. And then there are the neighbors who can rely on each other for spare oysters and foie. Among the latter type are Lee Styer of Fond, Joncarl Lachman of Noord and Randy Rucker of River Twice – three East Passyunk neighbors (and friends) whose establishments overlook the iconic Singing Fountain. The trio recently collaborated at a fundraiser at FringeArts, and we’re psyched to host the three chefs for a “dinner with friends” dinner that is sure to be one for the books. In case you need introductions, let’s start with Lee. After putting in years of hard work in the all-star kitchens of restaurants like Le Bec-Fin and Lacroix, Lee emerged as one of Philly’s most exciting young culinary stars with Fond, one of the first of Passyunk Avenue’s renaissance restaurants. After spending years in Chicago, Joncarl, a proud native Philadelphian, returned to his hometown, choosing the booming Passyunk Avenue as the location for Noord, his Northern European BYOB. Last but not least is Randy, whose River Twice just recently earned three bells from Philadelphia Inquirer’s Craig Laban AND three stars from Philadelphia Magazine, making his modern American eatery the latest talk of the town. ‘The more, the merrier’ has never been truer – join us for a collaboration dinner to remember. Please note that dietary restrictions cannot be accommodated.
