Susan Schlisman, who owns the Sam’s Grill spots in Wynnewood and Jenkintown as well as Devil’s Alley at 1907 Chestnut St., plans to take over the northwest corner of 11th and Sansom Streets for a third Sam’s Grill — think comfort food and a low-key vibe. She plans to install Terry Owens, now running the kitchen in Wynnewood, as executive chef and is hoping to open this summer.
Also in the nabe: Expect an opening "soon" at the southeast corner of 10th and Chestnut Streets for Blue in Green, marking a return to the hipster breakfast-lunch game for Michael Baer. He’s opened and closed two Blue in Greens, first in Old City and a second on Jeweler’s Row.
