Carmine's to Bryn Mawr

[marinade]

Just saw this in a Zagats newsletter:

Carmine's Creole Cafe: John Mims' ragin' Cajun-Creole is fixing to move in November from Narberth into the Bryn Mawr space currently occupied by Citron Bistro (818 W. Lancaster Ave.), with plans to add a liquor license and live blues.

This is not the first time John has tried blues. There was a short run in Ardmore at the site of the Head Nut (2408-10 Haverford Rd). The name escapes me but I think it was named for one of his daughters. Gonna miss the BYOB part of it. On the other hand the extra room and the parking behind the theatre will be better for him. I think the Narberth space was choking him.

Is that the building that was HA Winston & Co many years ago?

More space would be a good thing for Carmine's.

It's where Marbles used to be.

There's now a sign on the door in Narberth giving the above address in Bryn Mawr and an opening date of Jan 16th.

There's another sign saying that Margot Byob is opened Saturday at Carmine's former address in Narberth: www.margotbyob.com.

Dish,

I've had a private love for Carmine's since moving to Wynnewood in 98... my wife hosted my surprise 40th brunch at the old darby road locale. I guess we have come fiull-circle, as one of our "significant courting" moments occurred over dinner at Marbles.

I have always loved Carmine's menu, but will definitely miss the BYO freedom. The menu posted online looks similar to the Narberth menu... do you know if will there be any changes other than the Bar and Music?

Hi phungi-

Carmine's is one of my favorite places, too. I haven't been in over a month, so I am eagery awaiting the opening in Bryn Mawr.

I believe that all of Carmine's great menu items will remain. But, I think he will be doing some new and exciting things, as well. I'll know more next week!

I am also very excited about the blue's music. I think the Main Line could use a great place to hear music...now that The Point is gone.

I am always careful about what I post here about my restaurant clients. I don't want to sound too promotional. So, let me know if I start to sound like I am working

Is the new location having an opening day party on Jan 16th or will they be ready to serve customers on the 16th?
