Meteorologist Kathy Orr of Fox 29 Philly not only gave the weather this week but she also filmed a live segment in Downtown Wilmington highlighting a few of our amazing Curbside Wilmington businesses.
She started her Curbside Wilmington experience at Stitch House Brewery where she was able to sample a flight of local brewed beers.
Then she headed next-door to Chelsea Tavern to meet owner Joe Van Horn while trying out his signature habanero tavern wings and andouille sausage and sautéed gulf shrimp skewers. Joe talks to Kathy about all the great live music happening Downtown including Curbside Wilmington Happy Hours every Thursday night and the return of the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival in Rodney Square. Kathy Orr knows that for those that live out of town visiting Downtown Wilmington is easy, “it’s a great day trip” she says.
She then strolls down Market Street to Bardea Food & Drink where she enjoys a happy hour cocktail known as Blissful Summer, made with infused raspberry gin. She is excited to meet chef/owner Antimo DiMeo who enlightens her with his unique culinary cuisines including grilled cheese flourless gnocchi in tomato soup and grilled beefsteak tomatoes with bergamou sauvignon sauce over focaccia. Kathy raves that it’s the “best grilled cheese ever”.
We were thrilled to host Kathy Orr for the evening in Downtown Wilmington sampling delicious food and drinks along the way. She plans on coming back on her day off to enjoy our restaurants with her family and friends and we suggest you do the same.
Happy Downtown Dining!
