While the economy teeters, and capacity restrictions squeeze restaurateurs, you can t stop the new places from opening in and around the Erie area.
It appears there will be a new barbecue restaurant in the region to meet the warmer weather of spring.
Skinny Nate s BBQ, 10212 John Williams Ave., Albion, is in the works and a Feb. 11 Facebook post hinted at an opening in a couple of months, assuming they don t hit any major snags. Somebody there has a goofy sense of humor because their Facebook posts are pretty hilarious. If you need a smile, give them a look see at www.facebook.com/skinnynates.
The Erie Philharmonic will give another free online concert Feb. 25. This time, the event is about more than just the music.
Listeners can enjoy an hour of Italian-themed musical selections performed by the orchestra while dining on similarly themed specials made and picked up from restaurants including Colao s, The Cork 1794, La Bella, Make It Fabulous, Ricardo s and Oliver s Rooftop.
Each eatery will offer a dish or complete menu for the evening. Those interested are urged to place their orders in advance.
The concert will start streaming at 8 p.m., and will be available at WQLN-TV, Channel 54.1, wqln.org/eriephil and on Facebook at WQLNPublicMedia.
