Our sweet-tooths were ignited with a blackberry sorbet in raspberry sauce. It was, hands down, the best sorbet I've ever had, and the rest of the Desert followed suit.

It is Woolsey's authentic French menu that had me most excited, including some rarely seen treats like mustard-braised rabbit, homemade blood sausage, red-wine-poached oeuf en meurette, and even fresh baguettes.

The Alsatian-style flammenküche, a crisp flatbread topped with deeply caramelized onions, chewy bacon lardons, and nutmeg-scented streaks of creme fraiche, is hands down one of the better upscale "pizzas" in town.

...we've got a new Gallic giant in Bistrot La Minette, a worthy addition to Philly's burgeoning French food hit squad. Chef Peter Woolsey's menu changes regularly, but don't miss his Pâté de Campagne...it's our pick for best in the city.

I sampled three first courses, all of which made my heart flutter... I think I've found a new favorite restaurant.

Bistrot La Minette has a secret sanctuary. Invisible from the street and the main dining room, its newly opened bricked-in patio is the prettiest in town.
