We are excited to announce our new Executive Chef, Sam Henzy (@henzy____ ). Chef Sam joins a legacy of talented chefs who have honored local foodways and contributed to Fork’s ever-evolving pursuit of excellence and incredible hospitality. His nearly two decades of experience includes time at Noma, Quince in San Francisco, Angler, and Vernick Food & Drink.

Sam's appointment coincides with the gorgeous new renovation of our dining room by @margueriterodgersinteriors, bringing in a refreshed iteration of Fork, which we hope to retain as one of Philadelphia's most treasured restaurants as it continues to evolve.

When Sam is not in the kitchen, he can be found at the gym, on the disc golf course, playing guitar, or producing music in his ad hoc home studio. A proud resident of Port Richmond, he enjoys exploring the vibrant Polish community in his neighborhood and spending Sundays cheering on the Eagles like the proud Philadelphian he is.

We look forward to the continued evolution of our menu under his leadership!

Say hello to our winter House Amaro— a unique blend of burnt demerara sugar, a celery root, persimmon and carrot infusion, dandelion root, spearmint, chicory root, and sweet mint.

In @cheerwineofficials words, this is the closest he’s ever gotten to a classic amaro flavor in his experimentation. Only here for a limited time!

Meet one of our talented servers, Monty! Not only

Meet one of our talented servers, Monty! Not only is she a server, but she is also a certified Master Court sommelier, with specialities in Italian wine, ancient wine and wine education. Whether you're looking for the perfect bottle of wine to compliment your meal or just have some general questions about what we're serving by the glass, Monty can absolutely give you some stellar recommendations.

We asked her about some of her wine musings— take a peek, you might just be inspired to try something new!

🍾 last bottle you drank?
"Last bottle I drank is my favorite bottle ever, a Syrah from Côtes du Rhône by Matthieu Barret. It’s called ‘petit ours’ which translates to “little bear.”

🍳 best wine for brunch?
"Best wine for brunch is any skin contact wine! Whether it’s sparkling or still, rosè or orange wine. Brunch is the in between for breakfast and lunch, and skin contact is the stop between white and red wine. If you want to wake up effectively, the Sous le Vegetal muscat skin contact wine on our bottle list will do it for you."

🍷 favorite spot to drink wine in philly?
"Favorite spot for wine drinking is a tie right now between @jetwinebar and @bloomsdayphilly. Jet has the most impressive rotating list of ancient wine and Bloomsday is my favorite place to experiment with their house made vermouth projects."

🗺️ favorite wine region?
"Favorite wine region is hands down Piedmont, Italy. If I was a wine, I would be Barbaresco. Intense and devastating."
