New Philly Restaurant: Parc

July 14, 2008 at 11:00 AM | 1 Comment

If you're in Philly and craving steak frites or escargot, you're in luck, because a brand new French bistro opens today, just in time to celebrate Bastille Day.

Parc is the latest endeavor from Philadelphia restaurant mogul Stephen Starr, the man behind hotspots like Buddakan, Moriomto and El Vez. If you're familiar with any of those places, you can probably guess that the ambiance at Parc is less Left Bank, more Champs-Élysées.

Philadelphia City Paper has a walk-through of the elegant new space, which includes details like a 50-foot hand-crafted solid zinc bar, vintage fans and intricate tile work. No word yet on whether the food will be as exciting as the décor, so if anyone stops by today, be sure to let us know.

    great....

    food!! Although the fries were a bit salty, they made up with the best desert! I enjoyed the vanilla ice cream with some sort of dough surrounding it. Can't forget about the chocolate graham cracker sitting on top of some chocolate fudge :-)
