Caribou Café
Address: 1126 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107 (Map)
Only a few strides removed from the Forrest Theater in the gentrified neighborhood of Wash West, the Caribou Café corrals a hip mix of city crawlers, theater goers, local and national personalities, and plain old Philly folk. The festive décor in this vibrant slice of France frames the intoxicating upbeat insouciance that replicates the spirit and verve of the real-deal French café. The moderately priced menu focuses on regional everyday French standbys while simultaneously providing a gastronomic tour of France. Diverse delights from Alsace to Provence tempt the palate – all interpreted delectably by Maitre Cuisinier de France, Olivier Desaintmartin.

ZINC
Address: 246 South 11th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107 (Map)
Nestled into its charming Midtown Village locale, Olivier Desaintmartin’s second Philadelphia feat, Zinc, is the essence of class meets comfort.

Zinc offers diners the rare chance to feel right at home with a dining room décor that features exposed brick, dark polished wood, bistro chalkboards and authentic Parisian paintings. Complete with a knowledgeable and friendly staff, Zinc’s quaint, romantic appeal is reminiscent of a true bistro a vins one might find during a spontaneous stroll through Ol’ Paris.

Figs
Address: 2501 Meredith Street, Philadelphia, PA 19130 (Map)
Braised meats cook slowly while seductive aromas – saffron, cinnamon, ginger – waft into the air, cause diners’ mouths to water with anticipation. A smattering of mostly local, casually dressed guests, are spread evenly among the neatly outfitted tables. Such is the atmosphere at Figs, a cozy Fairmount stronghold since 2001. The dinning area of this pumpkin-colored Moroccan BYOB is small, and it can barely contain the spicy flavors emanating from Executive Chef/Owner Mustapha Rouissiya’s North African dishes.
