Sorrento Cheese 9th Street Italian Market Festival: This Weekend!

Roast pork sandwiches don’t get the acclaim they deserve in Philadelphia. Sure, it’s not a cheesesteak, but if you’ve ever taken a bite of well seasoned pork with sharp provolone, you’ll realize that its truly a feast for a king. It doesn’t hurt when someone else pays for it either. I can thank my mother for purchasing my first roast pork sandwich during the Italian Market festival 12 years ago. Since then, it has been an [...]

Solomonov and co-owner Steve Cook wanted to give senior staff a small window into Solomonov's Israel. New York-based food writer Pervaiz Shallwani and City Paper staff photographer Michael T. Regan, friends of Solomonov, were invited to tag along on the journey, which will culminate Monday, May 5, when Zahav (Hebrew for "gold") opens its doors in Society Hill.


(CLICK IMAGE FOR LARGER VERSION)

Tel Aviv, Israel — Straight off a 10-hour economy-class flight from Newark, an entourage from Philadelphia is greeted by an enthusiastic and eager man just beyond the baggage claim conveyors at Ben Gurion International Airport. His name is Michael Solomonov. He's their boss. And he's sent for them.
