Philly chefs revive historic garden with summertime vibes at Amourette

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Amourette is the new summer pop-up from James Beard nominee, Amanda Shulman, of Her Place Supper Club, and Alex Kemp of My Loup.

The word translates to 'summer fling' in French, fitting for the idea behind the concept; here for the summer, only for a short time.

Housed inside the Philadelphia Art Alliance just off Rittenhouse Square, the building's garden sat vacant for years.

The young chefs, recently married and still busy with their own restaurants, set up the space and brought the kitchen back to life.

Drinks and dishes are crafted to be light and fresh, with salads, a rotisserie chicken dish, and Pimm's Cups to name a few.
