462426 Alison is going into the old Ft Washington hotel. Tue Nov 20 11:18:04 -0800 2007 13 15 Pennsylvania 0 3142584 I'm excited to see that Alison Barshak is opening a new restaurant closer to home in the old Ft Washington hotel that's being renovated (ie; where Marita's used to be). Tue Nov 20 11:18:04 -0800 2007 41679 Den 1 3143161 Wow - great news! We could use another good restaurant in the area. Do you know if she is also keeping her current dids in blue bell? Tue Nov 20 13:25:54 -0800 2007 3142584 14329 AmblerGirl 2 3143586 According to her, yes. If you want to e-mail me I'll send you the link and you can read the newsletter.

Tue Nov 20 13:41:55 -0800 2007 3142584 135847 nevets 1 3144305 very exciting - thanks for the heads-up! they're really doing a nice job on the building, at least from the street... Tue Nov 20 20:10:10 -0800 2007 3142584 63462 missfunkysoul 2 3301289 While her food is good I don't think its great. Her menu rarely changes. I do give her credit for her marketing and self promotion however. Wed Jan 16 10:29:39 -0800 2008 3144305 75834 jakeouzo 3 3301547 We eat there often, and we've never had a dish that wasn't stellar. When is the last time you ate there? Wed Jan 16 11:31:04 -0800 2008 3301289 126441 etalanian 2 3335662 They are doing a fantastic job on the buidling but Alison has nothing to do with it. All of the renovations are being done by the owner of the building, who are unfortunately not even mentioned in any of alison's blogs. Sat Jan 26 12:59:26 -0800 2008 3144305 160812 born2code 1 3302182 Is this really happening? I just drove by today and saw a sign for office space rentals... but it could be for the space above, too. Wed Jan 16 14:00:56 -0800 2008 3142584 63462 missfunkysoul 2 3303269 Yes it is happening, and Alison is even blogging about it. The name of the restaurant was announced today on the Philadelphia Inquirere Food Blog, (Its going to be Alison Two.... why does that make me think of an Elvis Costello song... ). You can read more about it at Alison's website. Wed Jan 16 18:57:05 -0800 2008 3302182 64452 cwdonald 2 3303398 She will have two restaurants. She's going to keep the space she's in now. The sign must be for another space. Wed Jan 16 19:39:21 -0800 2008 3302182 126441 etalanian 2 3335665 the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors are being rented out as class a office space. Sat Jan 26 13:00:30 -0800 2008 3302182 160812 born2code 1 3316912 That is great news, I like Allison's in Blue Bell but I did not like the way you have to sit on top of each other at those tight tables. Can someone tell me where I can find her blog?
