Welcome to Bistrot La Minette
An authentic French Bistrot in Philadelphia.
bis·trot [bee'-stroh]
French (1884), originally Parisian slang for "little wineshop or restaurant"
La Minette [là mi-nè-t']
French, 1. a pussycat; 2. often referring to the youngest girl in a French family
Bistrot La Minette is the realization of Chef Peter Woolsey's dream that began a decade ago during his culinary studies in France: to create a restaurant that would share his love of the authentic bistrot experience with his fellow Philadelphians.
