Privé, the Greek tapas/lounge coming together at 246 Market St. in Old City, is expected to open any day, pending the liquor license. This is the former Bluezette near Third and Market.
Partners Nick and Bill Lavdas - Nick owns the Corner Bistro in Haddonfield, while cousin Bill owns Victory Lane Bar & Grill in Berlin - have brought in chef Peter Karapanagiotis, who started cooking five years ago at his family's George's Place in Cape May and at the nearby Pier House. He spent a brief stint as a saute/saucier at Buddakan, followed by two years at Brasserie Perrier, most recently at its cafe at Boyds.
I only got a look at the lounge just inside the front door, which looks remarkably as it did as Bluezette.
For now, here's the menu, which is quite extensive for a lounge's.

I love Greek cuisine, but that name's a little to close to "privvy." Not a great decision there.

Unfortunately it has no relation to Prive in Miami and Las Vegas which came first. Should cause the same confusion the old Mansion on 19th Street did before it became O.N.E. Oh wait, there's a ONE In NYC too. Let's just become a complete knockoff city..anybody want to open a Butter? 1Oak?
