Wed Feb 16 15:16:18 -0800 2005 0 nelsonic 1 983239 It still exists and Shola is still cooking away in his little West Philly home. Cost is up to $75pp, plus people usually tip him, so it usually comes to about $90pp. That's a lot of money but I still think it's worth it since he is the best chef in Philadelphia (and a great guy to boot). Thu Feb 17 08:54:28 -0800 2005 983217 0 DBD 2 983251 Still exists, still hard to get in touch, let alone get a date. Cost is up to $90 pp (includes tip/service: he marked it up when he started paying for cleanup himself). Thu Feb 17 10:26:01 -0800 2005 983239 0 Capaneus 3 983258 Plus He works now does 2 studokitchen dinners weekly in Ny city... I wonder if he is slowly exiting Philadelphia. Thu Feb 17 11:37:08 -0800 2005 983251 0 Susan 4 983280 He has had SK as a sidebar to his catering business all along, and my understanding is that most of those engagements are in NY, and have been throughout. I don't think the balance has changed in a while, or is likely to. Thu Feb 17 17:51:05 -0800 2005 983258 0 Capaneus 5 983282 No I mean I have friends in Tribeca who rent a wharehouse for him to do a dinner for 16 once a month like studiokitchen and they sell tickets to the highest bidder. Thu Feb 17 18:00:35 -0800 2005 983280 0 Susan 1 984892 Yes, Shola is is still doing his Studio Kitchen thing and we are lucky enough to have reservations for this evening. It is now $100 pp (he went organic on 4/1/05) but from the looks of our menu, it is going to be worth every cent! I'll keep you posted.... Fri Apr 29 06:42:02 -0700 2005 983217 0 Kathy G.
