High Street Hospitality Group

"We are so proud and honored to announce that High Street HospitalityGroup was named an #EmployerOfChoice by City of Philadelphia! This initiative recognizes employment recruitment, retention and promotion practices that support the City’s goals to close skill gaps and advance equitable growth! Thanks to our team members, Caroline Conrad and Luke Eschbach for all their efforts to create an amazing culture for our teams and the entire management team for their support in developing, evolving and believing in this vision." — Ellen Yin

“As an Asian-American woman, I sometimes struggled to find my place but I always felt a sense of belonging in the #hospitality industry,” notes Ellen Yin, restaurateur, High Street Hospitality Group. As a leader and entrepreneur, Yin quickly learned that success depends on ensuring that all team members feel a sense of belonging and connection. For her, success depends, too, on embracing #diversity and offering support and opportunities for growth. #diversityequityandinclusion #DEI #foodservice #foodserviceindustry #culinary Sponsored by Vollrath Foodservice

Today we open the doors to a.kitchen+bar D.C., an expansion of our well-loved Philadelphia restaurant, in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood beneath Hotel AKA Washington Circle! Exploring the seasonality of the Chesapeake, the menu is a culmination of hyper-seasonal American small plates and an acclaimed natural wine and beverage program. We can't wait to welcome you in!

Congratulations are in order! During last night's Dish It Up Chef Competition, Rebecca Foxman of Fox & Sons Fair Food and Kate Hughes of High Street Philly took home the Purple Dish Award and Purple Dessert Award respectively. Rebecca's savory buttermilk funnel cake with pickled shrimp salad and Kate's blueberry dill cheesecake wowed our celebrity judging panel and attendees alike. You can taste Rebecca and Kate's culinary creativity for yourself when you visit Fox & Sons at Reading Terminal Market and High Street Hospitality Group's restaurant and bakery on 101 S. 9th Street. Congrats to the winners, and many thanks to all the chefs who delivered exquisite culinary creations in this year's competition. For 16 years, Dish It Up has brought together our city's best women chefs and anti-abuse advocates for an important cause: to empower survivors of intimate partner violence in Philadelphia. This year's competition is over, but you can still get involved. Check out the comments to learn more! #congratulations #DishItUp #ChefCompetition #philadelphia

Philadelphia's food scene continues to receive international media attention landing on Eater's list of The Best Food Cities to Travel to in 2024. 🍽️ "From cozy BYOBs to exquisite prix fixe menus, Philly may be surprising out-of-towners with individual, award-winning restaurants, but the making of the modern food scene has been an intentional citywide endeavor." Philadelphia is one of only three U.S. cities to make it on the list. James Beard Foundation Award-winners, Friday Saturday Sunday, Kalaya, and High Street Hospitality Group are highlighted, and so are other top-notch restaurants including My Loup and Honeysuckle Provisions. 📸: D.
