Where To Go When You Miss Le Bec-Fin - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Fork is one of the few restaurants on this guide that overlapped with Le Bec-Fin. There’s nothing overtly French about the Old City icon—its seasonal American menu is all about handmade pastas and meaty mains. But where we see a similarity is in the service department. Whether you’re at Fork's bar for a martini and gruyere-topped burger or a 50th anniversary celebration in the dining room, the servers and sommeliers seem to know what you want more than you do, and deliver it with grace and charm. The only thing they're missing, for the purposes of this guide, are the French accents." - alison kessler
