The City of Brotherly Love's most famous chef weighs in on his favorite Philadelphia restaurants.
Updated: July 02, 2002
"They have a modern approach, a very modern kind of cooking, and I like the way they take a beautiful fish and just give it a little vinaigrette sauce. You always get the flavor of the fish there. Sauces are never overpowering."
"I like Vetri very much. He does authentic Italian with wonderful flavors, and the food is not too complicated. I like its simple approach with good ingredients."
"I love the museums here--the Philadelphia Museum of Art is just one of them. I love the city. We're not as cosmopolitan as New York; we're much more provincial in a way, but that's part of why it's so great."
