Review Staff Writer
ith real estate in South Philly east of Broad Street at a pre-mium, the swath of South Philly that includes Gradu-
ate Hospital, Point Breeze and Grays Ferry is, perhaps, the next frontier of development in coming years. And with a zoning approval to move forward on an empty parcel at 24th Street and Washington Avenue, the fate of Washington Avenue West is being rigorously debated among
business owners, residents, develop-ers, planners and politicians.
With a recent zoning board deci-sion, 2401 Washington Ave. is poised to be converted into a 113-unit resi-dential and retail mixed-use com-plex. A mix of studios, one and two bedrooms for rent with 57 car park-ing spots and room for parking for 53 bikes, the complex will be five floors at its highest. Green Construction LLC is the developer, and Hercules Grigos is their attorney.
“[Green Construction] build and develop a number of properties in
the South of South neighborhood and other neighborhoods in Center City,” Grigos said. Was it a push to get Reg-istered Civic Organization (RCO) and resident support for a mixed use complex? “I wouldn’t say it’s a push, I would say the zone has changed and it’s really not viable for industrial use as you see a lot of change going up and down the avenue. And the con-struction of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and [the University of] Penn coming across the river, I think it’s a natural progression of develop-ment.”
The South of South NeighborhoodAssociation (SOSNA) and the Wash-ington Avenue Property Owners As-sociation (WAPOA) have given theirstamp of approval, but the Northof Washington Avenue Coalition (NWAC) isn’t sold.
“We support people being impacted by it — they don’t want it,” NWAC’spresident Madeline Shikomba says. “Those on Kimball Street and on24th and 25th Street, they don’t want it, especially on Kimball.”

To the Editor: Imagine taking your family to Cape
May, N.J., and you’re looking forward to walking around the outdoor mall. But first, let’s change things a bit and imag-ine that the seashore town — a magnet for tourists — is managed by the City of Philadelphia. What would you have? Take a look at South Philadelphia, zoom in on the area of Ninth and Wharton streets, and you might get a clue.
First off, as a tourist you would have no substantial parking lots. You would be orbiting the area waiting for a neighbor to leave in his or her car. Frustrated, you may even risk being towed by parking in the nearby Acme lot, which is private
property. And when you find a spot and your daughter has to run to the bathroom, where does she go? The city has abso-lutely no concern about that. But Cape May, not managed by Philadelphia, does indeed have concern. The Jersey town is user friendly to tourists.
A nearby bank executive told me that he always has people coming in asking to use the bathroom. They are out-of-town-ers daytripping to the Italian Market. He is not allowed to accommodate. Residents see these tourists all the time coming in school buses or family cars. And we are glad to have them appreciating our neigh-borhood. We also appreciate the interest of developers and entrepreneurs. But for
planners, movers and shakers and resi-dents, we should all consider this. Just because something is new, filling a void or breathing life into an old building, does not mean it’s a good idea. If the planned development does not consider quality of life concerns, what is the point? The de-velopment may be more about building it haphazardly, dumping it profitably and run away indifferently. In short, we call this pattern build it, dump and run.
If planners wanted to convert that four- story city owned auto repair site at 11th and Reed into a triple decker parking lot, I might not be writing today, but no such plans are in the making. There seems to be a disconnect with city planners about the current evolution the Capitolo Play-ground region. Message to city planners: The cheesesteak is a great success story and so is the Italian Market. And so are the residents who preserved the commu-nity spirit and increased real estate value. This success has generated a bonanza of tourists and new dwellers. Wake up, city planners.
So with that in mind, shouldn’t we all consider the benefit and wisdom of hav-ing a new four-story, 18-unit apartment complex with five commercial stores and no onsite parking built across from Pat’s King of Steaks? Is there anyone with a car from Britton Estates to Bella Vista who believes there is plenty of parking in South Philly to go around? Does the zon-ing board have any idea? I’d asked them to come around Capitolo Playground five nights a week at around 6 p.m. Soft-ball players need parking. Check out the Acme lot at 10th and Reed streets at 2:30 a.m. Young people coming from the clubs, going for sandwiches need parking. Go to that same lot Sunday morning around 7:30. Almost full. Residents need parking. Hey, city planners: We’re not sardines.
To the Editor:Kudos to the South Philly Review for
its inspiring tribute to 20 accomplished students from South Philadelphia (“20 Rising Stars,” June 11). How remarkable to acknowledge these young scholars in contrast to the negative news we read about so many troubled youth!
It was very impressive to see boys and girls of different ages, representing both Catholic and public schools, who excel in many areas, including academics, the arts and sports. Especially touching were stories of heroic students who have over-come obstacles to achieve their goals.
They all give us hope for the world.

Review Managing Ed itor
n June 8, law enforcement officials announced the capture of Thomas Brennan and Crystal Leibhart for their alleged alliance in the demise of
41-year-old Scott Bernheisel, whose body turned up inside a suitcase near Philadel-phia International Airport May 28. Authori-ties contend that the duo beat and robbed Bernheisel inside a home on the 200 block of Wilder Street May 22 and added that the two stayed at that address periodically. They posit that Brennan, of Folsom, stuffed Bern-heisel’s body in a sleeping bag, which he then placed in a suitcase.
Police charged the 25-year-old with mur-der, robbery, criminal conspiracy and abuse of corpse and his 27-year-old alleged ac-complice, of Philadelphia, with robbery, hin-dering apprehension and obstructing justice. Court records had no account of Brennan but listed that Leibhart had not posted her $500,000 bail as of press time and awaits a June 23 preliminary hearing.
Authorities arrested a Dickinson Square West man for allegedly pulling a gun on an-other male.
At 6 p.m. June 8, the complainant was walking along the 400 block of Federal Street when he encountered an elderly fig-ure who reportedly asked him for his change from the store, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The stunned individual replied that he did not go to the store for the older adult and therefore did not
have his cash.The offender allegedly produced a silver re-
volver from a pouch attached to a walker andfired it one time at the victim, who quicklyran from the park. A little bit later, he spot-ted the supposed gun wielder after policestopped him on Ninth Street and WashingtonAvenue, Tolliver said. The complainant ap-proached the officers and informed them theman had shot at him, with law enforcementofficials arresting Charles Mincy, of the 400block of Manton Street, and charging himwith possession of an instrument of crime,assault, recklessly endangering anotherperson and firearms violations. He had notposted his $350,000 bail as of press time andawaits a June 23 preliminary hearing.
A Dickinson Square West resident faces aprison term of 20 to 40 years after pleadingguilty to murdering a man in 2013.
Tyreek McNeil, of the 600 block of MifflinStreet, will have a sentencing hearing Aug.5 following his May 27 admission that he shot Jose Aparicio outside Las Rosas Bakery, 1712 S. Eighth St., Sept 26, ’13. The now-23-year-old had been attempt-ing to make off with his 22-year-old victim’s backpack, but when the prey fought back, the bicycle-situated gun-man shot him three times and rode off withthe item and other valuables. Aparicio, of the1800 block of South Rosewood Street, diedat 4:26 a.m. Surveillance footage helped au-thorities to bust McNeil two days later.
McNeil also pleaded guilty to two countsof robbery and firearms charges.
Authorities are trying to track down theparty or parties responsible for burglarizinga Newbold establishment.

robbed a Whitman store. The at-large offenders entered Toys “R”
Us, 2703 S. Third St., at 6:19 p.m. June 7 and, after selecting items, passed all points of purchase without paying, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Divi-sion said. An employee confronted them at the door and recovered some merchandise from a cart, but a blast of pepper spray al-lowed the thieves to flee.
The complainant, who suffered facial irritation that did not require immedi-ate medical treatment, stated they left the establishment in a dark-colored auto and headed northbound on Third Street to-ward Oregon Avenue. She also estimated the stolen items’ value at $1,000 and de-scribed the first offender as black, having a heavy build; and wearing a pink visor and a gray shirt; and the second as black; hav-ing a heavy build; and wearing a gray shirt. Detailed descriptions of the other two of-fenders were not available.

Police are looking for the figure who burglarized a Whitman eatery.
Responding to a report of a burglary at Burger King, 2728 S. Front St., at 11:52 a.m. June 8, authorities met with the store’s assistant manager, learning he had entered the location to open for business and noticed $2,500 missing from a safe, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said. They further deter-mined that video surveillance depicted the criminal entering the establishment with a key via a side door at approximately 12:30 that morning. The offender, depicted as a stocky male wearing a dark-colored hood-ie that covered his face and gray pants, opened the safe, removed money from it and exited through the same entrance.

Police arrested a Whitman man for sup-posedly attacking a woman in Lower Moy-amensing.
The female was walking up the steps to a residence on the 1000 block of Emily Street at 11:37 a.m. April 30 when an un-known male approached her from the rear and applied a Taser to her back, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Di-vision said. They struggled for control of her purse, with the victim parting with her holder, which contained her wallet, iden-tification, iPhone4, glasses, keys, check-book, medication and jewelry, following a kick to her chest.
Law enforcement agents recovered video surveillance from the incident and circulated them to local officers, leading to the identification of Micah Wyatte as the alleged perpetrator. They arrested the 19-year-old at his residence on the 2400 block of South Orkney Street June 4 and charged him with possession of an instru-ment of crime, assault, recklessly endan-gering another person, robbery and theft. He had not posted his $250,000 bail as of press time and awaits a June 23 prelimi-nary hearing.
Authorities are searching for a man who used a knife to rob a male in East Passyunk Crossing.
At approximately 10 p.m. June 6, the complainant was about to enter a home on the 900 block of McClellan Street when the unknown figured approached him from be-hind, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The stranger bran-dished a large kitchen knife and removed a wallet from the victim’s pocket. He also demanded the victim’s cell phone, and upon receiving the Samsung Galaxy S4, he fled the area, heading northbound on Ninth Street.
The complainant described him as black, in his 20s and 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-8; having a light complexion and a thin build; be-ing clean-shaven; and wearing a light blue shirt, blue jeans, a black baseball cap and dark sneakers.

Police arrested a man for allegedly rob-bing a woman in Bella Vista.
The complainant was walking westbound on the 600 block of Fitzwater Street at 2 a.m. June 6 when a male grabbed her purse from her shoulder, put an object to the back of her head and took her iPhone 6 from her pocket, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Authorities tracked the phone to North Philly, with 35th District officers reportedly seeing a man throw items to the ground.
After a brief foot pursuit, they detained the individual, whom the complainant iden-tified as the aggressor, and recovered her phone. They charged Aaron James with pos-session of an instrument of crime, assault, recklessly endangering another person, rob-bery and theft.

Review Staff Writer
he Dispigno Family founded Ralph’s Italian Restaurant in 1900 at 901 Montrose St. in the heart of a bustling Italian Market. Francesco and Cath-
erine Dispigno arrived at Ellis Island from Naples, Italy in 1893. One-hundred-twen-ty-two years later and their fourth and fifth generations of children and grandchildren are still running the iconic Italian restau-rant, now at 760 S. Ninth St., with a sec-ond location, Ralph’s of South Philly, on North Gulph Road in King of Prussia.
On May 15, they celebrated 115 years after a triumphant centennial in 2000. This time, they teamed up with a new ar-rival in Philly’s Italian food market — one that’s a little less old-world but decidedly celebrated on a national scale, Marc Vetri. Vetri’s namesake space in Center City is often hailed as one of the best restaurants in the city, state and country. With the help of his culinary director and main chef at Amis on 13th Street, Brad Spence, Vetri and his crew descended upon Ralph’s to cook alongside its fourth-generation lead-er, Jimmy Rubino Jr., to raise money for the Vetri Foundation. A little more than $15,000 to be exact.
“With about four months of planning, we pulled it off that Thursday night, and it was amazing,” Rubino said. “All fans of Ralph’s, fans of Vetri, we were all united in one night — it was electric. Everyone was there for a good cause with two leg-
endary restaurant teams. It was such an amazing night, I’ll never forget it.”
The Vetri Foundation focuses primarily on diet, health and culinary education for children, especially in urban schools, in-troducing students to healthy cooking and eating habits and proper nutrition. Spence said “we work on nutrition in schools in and outside of Philadelphia. We go into schools and try to show what we can do as far as using fresh ingredients and healthy eating family-style. We pass it around and converse with kids about the food — some of these kids have never had a fresh peach or an apple or a fresh piece of fish.”
Spence says they did approximately 220 covers.
“We were thinking about doing the first floor, but we decided to do the second floor, too,” he said, adding that his whole family came out last month to celebrate, a ten-top of eager eaters. He and his father first ate at Ralph’s when he was 19 and, he adds, “15, 20 years later Jimmy would let me back in to cook, it’s funny.”
It all started when the Ralph’s team vol-unteered and donated food for a famed industry night at Amis. Rubino Jr.’s son, Ryan (armed with a marketing degree from Hofstra University), put it to his dad that a Vetri team-up for the 115th anniver-sary would be great. But the fourth gen-eration was skeptical of the fifth. When Ryan pushed the issue at Industry night, his father said ‘Go ask him!’
“I posed the idea and ended my presen-tation saying we would be honored to have you,” Ryan Rubino said.
Rubino Jr. was floored when Vetri said “You’d be honored to have ME? I was
speechless, I got emotional.” Rubino Jr. says he and his family res-
taurant, where he’s been bussing, clean-ing and cooking since the age of 5, are known for a handful of dishes: mussels in red or white sauce, veal parmigiana and capricciosa, linguine pescatore, eggplant parmigiana, monkfish fra diavolo and sweetbreads. Vetri and Spence came in to try some things and talk about the riffs they’d like to try on the special night. The Ralph’s team was floored when Vetri vets came in to offer a taste of what they were thinking of cooking up.
“We had a tasting and we were blown away — it was incredible,” Rubino Jr said.
Though celebrities from Frank Sina-tra, to Rocky Marciano, to Theodore Roosevelt, to Taylor Swift a couple years ago, have been through Ralph’s doors, Ru-bino Jr. seems relatively unphased and fo-cused on the restaurant’s product. Spence has noticed and admires his dedication to the cooking that loads of South Philadel-phians treasure.
“To me, it’s like Italian-American home cooking. People came from different parts of Italy and adapted to what they found here: it’s definitely olive oil, tomato sauce, sharp cheeses, garlic, simple fish,” Spence said. “It’s not technically-driven food; it’s food your grandmother would cook. You don’t feel like you’re eating a professional chef’s food — you feel like you’re eating your grandmother’s food. The family just really cares about the food, and it’s crazy good.”

It’s something I’ve been think-ing about for a long time - I’ve had an incredible experience with the last six-and-a-half
years working in city government, and I’ve gotten some great things done, which I’m very proud of,” Andrew Stober re-cently revealed.
The South Philadelphian stepped down managing Mayor Michael Nutter’s Office of Transportation and Utilities (MOTU)on May 15 to begin campaigning for an independent at-large seat on City Coun-cil.
“We had about 70 people there. It was great; we did it in front of the Municipal Services building across from City Hall,” the resident of the 1400 block of South Juniper Street said of his announcement.
Seven City Council at-large seats are divided up by five aligned with the ma-
jority party (usually Democratic) and two for the minority party. And Stober plans to make history by providing an alterna-tive to the Republican Party’s at-large candidates in November.
In a statement, the Passyunk Square dweller said that while Republicans have held those seats since the 1950s, “History is not destiny. This November, together we can make history and blaze a new po-litical trail for others to follow. ... There is no good reason that Philadelphia vot-ers should be stuck on Election Day with only the choices offered to them by the Republican Party.”
The former MOTU staffer has a hand-ful of accomplishments to boast: the es-tablishment of IndeGo Bikeshare, the creation of a City Energy Office, the securing of tens of millions in competi-tive federal grants and boosted revenue capacity for the City with bus shelter
advertising. Stober’s also committed to public schools and creatively conceiving of funding beyond quick fixes. He and his wife hope to send their two-year-old to Andrew Jackson School, 1213 S. 12th St. And he says his recent post’s focus on streets and public spaces will translate to a commitment to effectively utilizing public spaces, occupied and abandoned alike.
“Making local government work and work well isn’t about being a Democrat or a Republican; it’s about understanding your community and how government works, and those are two things that I un-derstand very well,” Stober, who plans to be “another voice from our neighborhood in City Hall,” said.

question for nearly 40 years and when asked what it’s like to watch her corner of South Philly evolved, she said “one word: gentrification. That’s it.”
SOSNA’s zoning committee approved the project 6-0, its general membership approves by a vote of 38-7, and the near neighbors voted 7-5 in favor. Shikomba’s neighbors fear parking scarcity and an in-flux of opportunists eager to get a piece of these hot neighborhoods while driving up tax rates.
“There were some neighbors that were concerned that there wasn’t enough park-ing,” Grigos said and noted that Green Construction’s maintained a one to two (one spot per two residents), more than necessary (which is three spots per 10 residents). “Hopefully, with carshare and proximity to Center City, we suspect that people living here will be urban, hopefully working at CHOP or in University City or in the central business district, they’re uti-lizing public transport and bikes,” Grigos said. “People that live urban don’t want to drive from 24th and Washington to the central business district — that’s prob-ably not the best use of their resources.”
Shikomba doesn’t exactly see it that way. “Having a bike doesn’t preclude you from having a car,” she said. “Give me a break. Bikes this and bikes that, you’re still going to have a car.”
As for the affordability of these units, Grigos says some will be deemed afford-able, but not many. “Right now we’re at a five percent [of the units] number,” he said. “There’s some language we’re work-ing on to make them affordable. [The rest] will be market rate and they’re going to
be nice – a nice product in an area that’s a little underserved.”
THE 2401 WASHINGTON Ave. develop-ment is a talking point in many along Washington Avenue West: there’s Bart Blatstein’s impending development at the northeast corner of Broad and Washing-ton, a litigious-stalled property at 1601 Washington Ave., and, recently, rumors are swirling about a Toll Brothers proj-ect that would face Blatstein’s, deemed Lincoln Court. But there are also some pioneer businesses anchoring retail devel-opment: NextFab, a collaborative fabrica-tion hub at 2025 Washington Ave., Kermit Bake Shoppe at 2204 Washington Ave., Springfield Beer Distributor next door at 2206, a CrossFit Supercharged on 1931 Washington Ave. and Café Ynez at 2205 Washington Ave. as well.
Thom Donatucci heads up WAPOA as the proprietor of Donatucci Kitchen, Bath & Appliances, 1901 Washington Ave. His father started the company in 1964, but his family’s owned the building since the ‘30s. With nearly two dozen dues-paying members, they champion Washington
Avenue West’s future as a walkable, pe-destrian-friendly retail corridor. They say yes to 2401 Washington’s rezoning, right? “Yes,” Donatucci said. Was it conten-tious? “No.”
“Washington Avenue is suffering a lot, and the businesses are suffering. If you go down Washington Ave. from 18th all the way to Grays Ferry Avenue — corners are your prime location, and there’s at least one dead corner on every intersection.”
A large and complex sub-issue to Wash-ington’s development is the City Planning Commission’s much-needed rezoning efforts. Unfortunately, the avenue falls halfway in the Central District’s plan, which is in the works, and the South Dis-trict’s plan, which hasn’t yet begun. In the meantime, Donatucci says, they want to spur dialogue about the Avenue as a future hub.
“We want leadership from SOSNA, Point Breeze, Newbold, us, anyone else wants to come, whoever is willing, let’s have a meeting about what’s right to do Washington Ave.,” he said.
Donatucci’s of the belief that Wash-ington Ave.’s huge industrial shells cre-
ate a unique opportunity for exciting but reasonable development – “you can hit a home run” with it, he says.
Lauren Vidas, SOSNA’s chairperson, is of the mindset that the answer isn’t to oppose all development but to find real solutions to serious neighbors’ concerns. “We’re a post-industrial city with vacant swaths of land that are sandwiched be-tween two burgeoning neighborhoods,” she said. “The next big thing is what do we put there? The term gentrification is used far too frequently as an umbrella term for very legitimate concerns that people have, [but] the solution is not to stop develop-ment.” Parking often drives near neighbor concerns, but Vidas is convinced that even those fears can be mitigated with modern solutions. “These are issues that we should absolutely be talking about. There’s a lot of room for compromise with all this stuff [but] people tend to take an all-or-nothing approach which makes compromise dif-ficult.”
Speaking for the 2nd District Council-man who represents the area, Kenyatta Johnson, Steve Cobb hears it all. And he and his boss are watching closely as de-velopment proposals like 2401 Washing-ton gauge neighborhood readiness. “It’s really an avenue that’s in somewhat of a transition period,” Cobb said. Developers “have an interest in taking a look at some of the more commercial, retail and resi-dential mixed use projects and they see that as a sort of shift in Washington Av-enue where we’ll see more of these proj-ects and still work to maintain some of the light industrial character in the neighbor-hood while making way for development that’ll bring jobs and opportunities to live near Center City.”

Review Managing Ed itor
en Michael loves applying his “logical, brainy” makeup to his professional pursuits, believing that doing so bolsters the brilliance of a project and aug-ments his artistic sensibilities. The 28-year-old has
found a perfect platform for his approach through “Pas-sion,” Stephen Sondheim’s beloved brainchild that finds his character, an army captain named Giorgio, altering his perceptions of self-awareness and affection.
“He is simple in his complexity,” the Dickinson Square
West inhabitant said of the commended composer and lyricist, the recent recipient of the inaugural Master Sto-ryteller Award from the Arden Theatre Co., a 13-time producer of his efforts. “There is enviable intelligence in the material, especially within ‘Passion,’ where we have a seemingly confident individual questioning the value and ultimate sincerity of his aspirations and desires.”
The 1994 Tony Award winner for Best Musical enlists Giorgio as the paramour of a married woman, Clara, and the burgeoning obsession of an ailing outcast, Fosca, with South Philly inhabitant Liz Filios, with whom Michael appeared in a winter production of “Into the Woods,” an-
other Sondheim work, in the latter role. The actor, whose pursuit of the assignment began in January 2014, is han-dling his duties through June 28 yet knows his participa-tion will have durable repercussions, particularly because the script offers a musical theater anomaly.
“So many shows feature downtrodden figures who rise to prominence or at least have some positive breakthrough that influences the rest of their lives,” the Arden rookie re-vealed. “Giorgio initially feels he knows everything, and what he comes to learn, primarily through Fosca, is that thoughts require modification. His realizations become powerful reminders that we shouldn’t shut ourselves off

to accepting change and that we should see our shifts in thinking not as damning but encouraging.”
Michael also opined that the opportu-nity to become acquainted with renowned director Terrence J. Nolen has provided a pleasant complement to his respect for Sondheim. He credits the overseer with establishing great rapport among the cast and contends that the camaraderie has made his own “Have a good show, and have fun” instructions to his peers even more delightful utterances.
“It can be odd to say ‘Have fun’ when working on such a heavily emotional mu-sical as ‘Passion,’ but in the end, that sense of joy in having this opportunity stands out as a driving force,” he said. “I look at what I’m doing, and it’s a flawless match for my interest in seeking out and working with willing and open people.”
THE HATBORO NATIVE has always classified himself as one such individual. Beginning his journey as a second grader, he entered into the theater world with zero apprehen-sion yet did not see it as his calling until nearly a decade later.
“It felt right to me, but I took some time
away from that life,” Michael said, not-ing that a Flourtown-based production of “Les Miserables,” in which he played Jean Valjean, keyed his epiphany. “Soon enough, though, it all became clear.”
Minus a lengthy tenure within the field, he felt that having a virtual blank slate would help him to “soak everything up.” Coveting a conservatory program to fur-ther his curiosity, he matriculated at Syra-cuse University, where his immensely valuable training intensified his individu-ality while strengthening his infatuation with bettering fellow practitioners’ con-cepts and portrayals.
“Nobody forced me to fit into a mold, and everybody spoke about the impor-tance of finding out who we are,” Michael said. “There was such an engrossing em-phasis on the foundations of acting, and those lessons still prove as compelling as they did when I was a student.”
With his New York adventure complete, he returned to his Montgomery County hometown but would not remain there long, as his skill set and dedication made him a frequent hire and an even more am-bitious presence.
“For the first six months after gradu-
ation, I had a whirlwind of luck,” Mi-chael said of his immediate opportunities, which included employment through the Bristol Riverside Theatre, the Nice People Theatre Co., which took him to the United Kingdom for the Edinburgh Fringe Festi-val, and the Maine-headquartered Theatre at Monmouth. “There was a growth peri-od, too, and I’d say that for the last two or three years, I’ve started to consider myself as an artist even more intensely.”
As he approached that mindset and since has initiated that immersion into his dis-cipline, others entities like Troika Enter-tainment, for whom he did a national tour of “Fiddler on the Roof,” Theatre Horizon and The Walnut Street Theatre have se-cured his services. Like his stint in New York, his Philadelphia adventure, which commenced in January ’13, has proven insightful and fruitful, especially with re-spect to strengthening his craft.
“The culture here focuses on what works for the performers, and that’s very enlight-ening,” Michael mused, adding that he, as someone with intense emotions, feels compelled to offer his thoughts and feel-ings while fulfilling a contract. “There are a lot of great people here, and I’m always
thrilled when I feel the joy and happiness that they have for one another.”
He has often observed that stance through “Passion” and believes that his interpreta-tion of Giorgio not only lets him give and receive applause but also provides an an-swer to the inquiry that will serve as the title of an upcoming podcast.
“I’m going to call it ‘So Now What?’” he said, noting his inspiration comes from wondering how performers, especially those his age, can best reinvent them-selves not just to remain relevant but also inspired. “I know I can play roles, so I feel it’s time to broaden the horizon.”
As for a reply to his podcast, he will trav-el to North Carolina for a fall production of “Into the Woods” and would certainly not mind adding a Broadway credit.
“I want to test the waters,” Michael said. “I want to make more connections and have even more fun.” SPR

Tom Cardella has the week off. We are re-running his column from Oct. 2, 2014 that recently received a third-place honor for column writing from the Philadelphia Press Association.
rowing up Italian, you learn that no-body’s gravy is better than your moth-er’s, and also, how to use the word “cumare” correctly to reflect its proper
meaning. A cumare can be many things. If your mother had a cumare, the word
meant “very close friend.” You had to be spe-cial to be a cumare. We had a Cumare Jean in the family. She was never referred to as Jean, always Cumare Jean. During the first 10 years of my life, I thought cumare was Jean’s first name. She was a lovely and gregarious lady. One time she called me while I was on the air at WIP doing a sports talk show and she said, “Hi, Tom, we’re so proud of you. This is your Cumare Jean from Yeadon.”
The Urban Dictionary claims that cumare meant “godmother” among the people of southern Italy. That may be the case, but Cumare Jean was not my godmother. My godmother was named Mary, but was never referred to as Cumare Mary. Mary took her role as godmother very seriously, so much so that for my birthday she always sent me a money order for $5 tucked inside a birth-day card. That might not sound unusual, but Mary kept sending me that $5 money order until I was in my mid-40s (the money orders only stopped when Mary died peacefully in old age). The annual money order was not the most impressive thing about Godmother Mary. I always felt the thing that stood out about Mary was she stopped talking to her husband not long after she was married. They refused to separate because neither wanted the other to have the house. Mary continued to live with Angelo for 40 years without a word passing between them. Family rumor had it that Angelo was a cheater, but the man could do anything in the house. As my moth-er said, “Angelo has hands of gold.”
The masculine version of cumare is cump-are (refer to the dippy Julius La Rosa song). If you are a cumpare, you are a special male friend. Back in the day, cumpares didn’t hang out in sports bars wearing Brian Dawk-ins jerseys, eating chicken wings and down-ing Bud Lights; usually, they played cards together or went fishing.
My father didn’t have a cumpare, but I be-lieve my grandfather did. I don’t remember the man’s actual name, but everybody loved
him. His distinguishing feature, as I remem-ber it as a boy, was that I never heard him speak anytime I was around him, which was mostly during the holidays. He suffered no disability along those lines, as far as I knew. He always had a smile on his face and just seemed happy we remembered to invite him to family gatherings. I always felt that he would’ve been the perfect partner for God-mother Mary, you know, not speaking while living in the same house.
My father-in-law had a cumpare by the name of Dominic. I know this because every time my wife and I walk down Wolf Street, she reminds me that Cumpare Dominic used to live on the street. Sometimes I beat her to it and remind her that Cumpare Dominic lived on the street just to annoy her.
My wife can’t explain why, but my father-in-law’s closest friend Sabatine was not called cumpare. Sabatine was a delightful man with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes who was prone to still wear the original sneakers he was issued during World War II. Sabatine (nicknamed “Reds”) did not believe in discarding anything that was still useful. At the Shore one time, Sabatine was sent to the corner store to buy paper napkins, but somehow returned with sanitary napkins. He didn’t have a clue as to what all the fuss was about.
Right about here, I ought to alert you that there is a big difference between the usage of cumare and cumpare. If a man has a cumare, the word means mistress. Fans of “The So-pranos” will remember that Uncle June had a cumare (I believe he stashed her in Boca). Back in the day, married Italian women were not supposed to have a lover, hence cumpare was not used in the same way when it came to an illicit affair between a married woman and a man.
Between my wife’s family and my own, there were a number of uncles who kept a cumare on the side. One such uncle always had a “card game” to attend on a Saturday night while his wife feigned ignorance. The rest of us knew there had to be a cumare in the picture because he religiously never missed a card game. His wife always lobbied for family functions to be held on another night of the week, which became awkward when Christmas fell on a Saturday.
I’m not sure how the word cumare evolved from being a close friend to a mistress to today’s meaning of “old-fashioned.” If you are a woman who is not stylish, other Ital-ian women will typically say to one another, “She’s such a cumare.” It isn’t only how you dress, but how you carry yourself that makes you a cumare. Eliza Doolittle was a cumare.
Regardless of how you may feel about their politics, Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren are cumares. Nancy Pelosi, Anne Coulter and Sarah Palin are definitely not cumares. SPR

Review Ed itor
ow many different types of can-nolis are there to choose from at the Girard Estate-based Potito’s Bakery, 1614 W.
Ritner St.? Hint: Use the picture of co-owner/baker Matty Be-nigno as a guide. The simpler days of chocolate, vanilla or ricotta, in which the decision did not seem that difficult, are history. The business, which has been the recipi-ent of a number of South Philly Review Readers’ Choice honors for best cannoli, is taking the concept to a whole new level with 20 different flavors to choice from. With Tuesday being National Cannoli Day — yes, even pastries have their day on the foodie calendar — Potito’s custom-ers got one free medium selection of their choosing. Glossy images of the different flavors — red velvet, peach, passion fruit, pignoli, peanut butter, cookies and cream, pistachio, amaretto and tiramisu — are now hanging on the walls. The immedi-ate reaction may be: “Can they really do that with a cannoli?” Well, with a name of Casa Di Cannoli — House of Cannoli — the answer is a resounding “yes!”
“It’s a line extension of our most popu-lar item,” Benigno said.
The offerings also are available at all six locations, including Center City, North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest. The late Carmen Potito — father-in-law to Benigno and father to Cristina Benigno (formerly Potito) opened the business 30 years ago. These days, the original location contin-ues to holds its own on the highly com-petitive South Philly bakery scene.
For those who missed out, mark June 16 down on that 2016 advance planner, as the free medium cannoli promotion will now be a yearly tradition.

Restaurant Rev iewer
hen it opened in 1998, The Prime Rib became an instant classic American steakhouse. The décor, ambiance and menu harkened
back to the ’40s when elegantly dressed Americans sipped cocktails and enjoyed hearty prime beef and bottles of red wine cared for by tuxedo-clad waiters.
When I reviewed the restaurant, I gave it high marks. It reminded me of The Stork Club. I decided to review all the steak-houses in the city because I was so im-pressed with Palladino’s on Passyunk.
The Prime Rib offers a $45 three-course dinner until 6 p.m. on weeknights, but it is available all evening on Sunday — a fine day to dine at the Prime Rib, as customers can bring wine, and there is no corkage fee.
That said, here is what we savored at our recent dinner. Fresh, hot-from-the-oven bread was served with softened butter. An order of clams casino ($18) consisted of six cherrystone clams topped with crisp bacon and grilled sweet Vidalia onions. All they required was a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Sometimes we enjoy a veg-etable as a starter. Grilled asparagus ($10) was a generous portion of local spears that were dipped into rich homemade hollan-daise. The smoky flavor married well with the sauce.
Salads are another American steakhouse staple. Hearts of palm ($13) are rarely seen on restaurant menus these days, but the Prime Rib’s version was luscious. Crisp lettuce, some strips of roasted red pep-pers and delicious old-fashioned deviled eggs completed the dish. Hearts of lettuce ($13) is so classic and popular, many res-taurants have added it to their menus. A wedge of cold, crisp iceberg was topped with homemade blue cheese dressing, loaded with chunks of slightly salty blue cheese and served with half-moons of red ripe tomatoes. Less is more, indeed.
One of my favorite childhood dishes is the baked crab imperial served at the original Vesper Club. The Prime Rib has a version ($39) that was fine, but needed more sauce. Jumbo lump crabmeat was seasoned and packed into a ceramic dish in the shape of a seashell. I thought the crab should have been creamier. So we placed some of the béarnaise sauce which came with my prime rib of beef on top,
and really liked it.The Prime Rib signature cut ($43) is 16
ounces of fine, tender beef that one can order to his or her favored degree of done-ness. Mine came rare, and was luscious, especially with the added taste of its natu-ral jus. The béarnaise sauce was obvious-ly homemade like the hollandaise. It was rich in flavor and texture. Much of it was toted home for lunch.
There is an array of side dishes ($10) to suit everyone. When I think of a clas-sic steakhouse, I always think of creamed spinach. This one hit the mark. I detected a hint of nutmeg, which brings out the flavor of spinach. Potatoes au gratin are tops with me. They are usually sliced pa-per thin, topped with butter and cream and baked in the oven. The chefs here cube the potatoes, which produces a different tex-ture, but no mind. We finished them off.
We brought a bottle of Xavier 2011 Cotes du Rhone, which was dry but filled with fruit. If you are going to enjoy beef or a rich seafood dish, bring a pinot noir or Cotes du Rhone to the Prime Rib on Sunday.
Homemade apple pie with vanilla ice cream ($11.50) was a splendid way to end a classic dinner.
Service was attentive and cordial. An as-sistant waiter crumbed the table between courses, filled our water glasses and saw to our needs.
A gentleman tinkled the ivories during dinner. The Gershwins, Cole Porter and pop tunes provided a lovely environment harkening back to the supper clubs of the past.
Three-and-a-half tips of the toque to The Prime Rib.

aul Frost fostered such warm youth-ful feelings about entering the culi-nary world that he yearned to run a business before acquiring the acu-
men to cook. With education having en-gendered even more passion, the 30-year-old is reveling as the proprietor of 1st Ward Sandwich, Front and Morris streets.
“We’ve not been here long, but each day becomes better,” the Bensalem inhabitant said of reactions to his Pennsport-based brainchild. “This area is home to so many super friendly people, so it’s great to be able to give them another food option.”
The rookie overseer became aware of the space through a friend, and it emerged as the victor from among nearly three doz-en spots. Enamored with the prospect of helping residents to regard his creations as evidence of his nutritional know-how, he has developed additional appreciation for what offering high-quality selections can contribute to a community.
“My enthusiasm is pretty evident,” the Restaurant School at Walnut Hill Col-lege alumnus said. “It’s much more than slapping ingredients together or throwing them in a pot. I think this neighborhood gets that, and I want to build on the flavors of the food and make something really dy-namic for them to enjoy.”
Through personal enterprises and 1st Ward endeavors, Frost has come to count the Philadelphia Phillies as clients, with 13 sandwiches proving lucky charms in hampering their hunger. The popularity of the bánh mì, which is the Vietnamese term for all bread varieties, prompted him to share its preparation with readers.
“This is definitely one of my favorites,” he said of the offering, which he comple-ments with pickled vegetables and srira-
cha mayonnaise. Reflecting his respect for constructing
perfect provisions, the three-and-a-half hour labor of love finds Frost furthering his focus on promoting a culturally rich palate, with its Asian influence uniting with his attractions to Mediterranean and Middle Eastern delicacies.
“We care about what we present to cus-tomers,” he said. “With the bánh mì, we’re looking to be flawless.”
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.Heavily coat the pork belly with the five-
spice powder, salt and pepper, and apply a quick sear on both sides. Place the meat in a casserole dish, and add the remaining ingredients.
Cook for three-and-a-half hours. Let the pork cool in the liquid, remove it from the dish, and slice it thin. Sear in a hot pan until crispy. Serve on a baguette.

Review Managing Ed itor
t the dawn of his senior season at Newberry College, Albert Baur be-lieved he would need a commend-able campaign to become a base-
ball professional. Thanks to a remarkable year that yielded numerous accolades, the 23-year-old product of Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., re-joiced June 10, as the Pittsburgh Pirates tabbed him as their 28th-round selection in the First-Year Player Draft.
“I’m still a little stunned that I’m go-ing to have this opportunity,” the ec-static young man said Tuesday from his 200-block-of-Daly-Street home. “I want to work hard for the organization and continue to help it to grow.”
Baur learned of the National League Central franchise’s decision in his Whit-man residence, having graduated from his South Carolina-based school as a sports management major May 9. He left for the Steel City yesterday and will soon report to Morgantown, W. Va., where he will complete a short season lasting through early September.
“The Pirates are exciting to watch,” the happy hitter said of the club, who joined the Miami Marlins and the Phillies in sending him questionnaires. “It’s been clicking for them lately, so I’m pumped.”
A beaming, blossoming Baur will likely mean terror for hurlers, as the 6-foot-4 presence pounded baseballs as a Wolf, es-pecially elevating his output as a senior by becoming physically stronger. Amassing a .427 batting average, 59 RBI, 54 runs, 24 doubles and 16 home runs, he helped his South Atlantic Conference constitu-ents to 34 wins, their most in 38 years, and set single-season standards for hits, doubles, on-base and slugging percent-ages and total bases. Those awe-inspiring statistics earned him consensus Division II All-American status and second-team All-American honors from the Ameri-can Baseball Coaches Association and National Collegiate Baseball Writers’ Association.
“Guys were usually on base, so I was often put in a position to succeed,” Baur humbly said of his notable numbers. “My whole time there, I just felt everyone was
so interested in helping me to grow. I’m going to be excited to represent them as a professional.”
He will also be endowing Neumann-Goretti with additional pride, as he helped to rejuvenate the Saints as diamond crushers, with their evolution most appar-ent through their capturing of the 2009 Catholic League championship. Having gone through the often nerve-racking pro-cess of wondering where he might land, especially obvious on draft day when his home seemed like the athletic equivalent of a waiting room, Baur anticipates offer-ing the Pirates the championship mental-ity that has made him a local hero.
“I don’t have any timetable,” he said of passing through Pittsburgh’s system. “I’ll control what I can, and I’m going to have fun like always.”
KENNY KOPLOVE MADE South Philly doubly delighted by becoming the Phillies’ 17th-round pick the same day. The home team welcomed him into the fold for his feats
at Duke University, with the 21-year-old captivated with the chance to contribute to the Fightin’s.
“It’s undoubtedly one of the greatest moments of my life,” the resident of the 1500 block of Hulseman Street said Tues-day from Clearwater, Fla. “The Phillies are looking to grow their organization, and I’m thrilled that they selected me be-cause I want to evolve, too.”
The Packer Park product signed his contract Monday, initiating an educa-tional journey that he intends to relish and regard as yet another reminder of the rewards of immersion in one’s passion. He has honed that mentality throughout his baseball existence, with the South Philly-based Philadelphia Senators and the East Falls-situated William Penn Charter School Quakers combining with Duke to offer a triumvirate of beneficia-ries. Much like Marlon Brando’s charac-ter, Don Vito Corleone, who promised to make a competitor an offer that he could
not refuse in “The Godfather,” the Phillies proved an irresistible suitor, leading the 6-foot-2 shortstop and pitcher to forego his senior season at his North Carolina-headquartered institution.
“It’s already been an eye-opening ex-perience,” the right-hander said, noting the value of a classroom-set analysis on the art of pitching as a particular boon. “Everyone I’ve encountered here has an amazing work ethic and wants all these guys to thrive. That’s pretty awesome.”
His statistics from this recent year are likewise impressive. Serving as the Blue Devils’ starting shortstop and chief closer, he notched a .275 batting average, good for fourth on the team, and 12 multi-hit efforts at the dish and punched out 37 bat-ters in 25.1 innings while tallying a sin-gle-season program high 11 saves. Those figures helped him to score placement on the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year watch list and offered supporters opportunities to reflect on similar accom-plishments from his Penn Charter days.
“Everyone has been so congratulatory, and it’s really been important to me to thank them all for their encouragement,” Koplove, whose enrollment at the Inter-Ac League school bred his distinction as the 2012 Gatorade/ESPN Pennsylvania Player of the Year, said. “I’m very fortu-nate to have them in my life.”
Numerous backers reached out to Kop-love on his big day, with the young man dining at Texas Weiners, 1426 Snyder Ave., with his patriarch, Steve. They will surely have plenty for which to cheer, as their hero has vowed to intensify his already admirable sense of responsibility and dedication.
“The organization is getting a feel for me, and I’m getting a feel for everyone, too, and I’m really excited,” Koplove, who is eager to see how the franchise will nurture him this summer, said. “I’m not rushing anything because every step of the way, there’s going to be something that really makes me more mature.”
