Le Bec-Fin is the premiere fine dining restaurant located in Philadelphia, PA, about a 90 minute drive from Manhattan. Le Bec-Fin is operated by Chef and owner, Georges Perrier. Chef Perrier also owns several other dining establishments: Georges (located on the prestigious Main Line in Philadelphia), Mia (located in Atlantic City) and Brassiere Perrier (also located in Philadelphia). Le Bec-Fin has received many accolades, most recently the 2007 5 Star Mobil Rating and AAA 5 Diamond Rating. Le Bec-Fin is a dining experience that envelopes elegance, luxury and a distinguished flavor for your palette.

While seated in its Parisian dining salon interior, you can expect to feast on a six-course meal that includes delicious Galette de crabe aux haricots verts and scrumptious Coquilles Saint-Jacques poêlées. Or if you want to take advantage of their special $90 four-course Summer Menu, you can indulge your taste buds with Cassolette of snails in a Champagne and hazelnut garlic butter sauce and Salmon confit in olive oil, fava beans, strawberry and balsamic vinegar sauce.

Le Bec-Fin’s legendary dessert menu, masterfully created by Chef Redoine Antoine Amrani, includes Gâteau Le Bec-Fin. This delectable signature cake features layers of chocolate genoise soaked in rum and chocolate mousse, topped with a stunning display of chocolate fans. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. If you plan to visit Philadelphia, known for its rich historical culture, Le Bec-Fin's famous chocolates and other signature products are available for purchase by visiting La Boutique online. Your purchase has to be picked up at the restaurant, but the chocolates can be shipped direct if you want to treat yourself (or someone else) from outside of town.
