What is it today? Or should I say what is it today ... in
Philadelphia? Do we have any fine dining chains? (oops thats the

"What is it today?"        It's up for debate. I can only
comment on what it was with any certainty.        1. re:
Chinon00          I think for starters, you can define "fine
dining" as, at a minimum:          1) service that gives a crap
2) comfortable and pleasant decor & atmosphere         3) decent
quality table settings         and, last but not least,
4) high-quality, expertly-prepared food          1. re:
deprofundis            Does the style of the food qualify or
disqualify? What if the "high quality, expertly prepared food"
is Carolina BBQ?            1. re: Chi
