Overtures

[Capaneus]

Michael Klein tells us that Overtures is now closed, due to Peter Lamlein's retirement.

I for one think it's a darn shame. I had some really really good meals there.

As did I. It's sad but true. I heard about the closure a couple of weeks ago and was saddened at the news. I never went to Overtures as often as I should have, given how delicious the food was, how gracious the service was and what a good value it was. Not to mention it was probably one of the prettiest rooms in town.

I hope Peter enjoys his retirement. He's a lovely man and a very talented chef. Both he and his restaurant will be sorely missed.

What a great place to hold wine dinners. The best in Philly actually. That's crappy news.
