Back in October we were bummed to learn that Bitar’s, South Philly’s delicious Lebanese connection since 1974, was pulling up its stakes and moving. This week comes word that the Middle Eastern specialty food store and restaurant isn’t going anywhere after all. The Citypaper’s A.D. Amorosi reports in Ice Pack that the Bitar Family has decided to ditch plans to sell their existing storefront at 10th and Federal streets and remain in the neighborhood. The building was taken off the market and the For Sale taken down. And things there are back to business as usual. [Ice Pack]
