Philadelphia Weekly, Digested

• This week’s edition comes with a review of Ekta, which, for several reasons, cannot escape being compared to Tiffin. Although the decor doesn’t quite match up, the good news is that the food does — to the point of leaving Adam Erace feeling like he cheated on Tiffin.

• Fancy cocktail lounges are wonderful, divey bars are fun, and beer pubs are a delight, but is there anything more suited to the season than a nice wine bar? If you are of this opinion, the Field Guide has got your back with a round-up of wine bars.

• One of the wine bars mentioned is Tria, and Tim McGinnis interviews one of the bartenders. She likes the jobs “from an educational standpoint” and says “I knew nothing of beer, wine and cheese before. There’s more to it than I expected.”
