9 Philly Restaurants With Tasting Menus Worth Making Time For | Eater Philly

"Though Bibou is located a stone’s throw from South Philly’s Italian Market, the petite restaurant helmed by Lyonnais chef-owner Pierre Calmels is Philadelphia’s most genuinely French dining experience. Calmels’ menu changes every week, based on seasonality and availability, but two courses always remain: foie gras and a souffle. Expect upscale French-style service: an amuse-bouche starts the meal, dishes are sauced tableside, truffles get shaved over plates, and wine is poured from decanters. Speaking of wine: Diners bring the best bottles they have to this BYOB. Follow suit and take a bottle of bubbly, Burgundy, or Bordeaux — or maybe all three." - Sarah Maiellano
