A Hidden Romantic French Gem in Philly 🇫🇷✨
Jansen 📍 7402 Germantown Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19119 Tucked at a crossroads in a charming stone-clad building, this intimate French restaurant feels like a warm, family-run haven. Plenty of street parking nearby! Appetizers 🦪 Oysters – Skip the West Coast ones (tiny and thin!). Go for the East Coast—plump and flavorful. 🦆 Foie Gras – Today’s special: a generous slice of smooth, rich foie gras served with three slices of tender duck breast (medium-rare) and toasted bread. The plum sauce cut through the richness perfectly—highly recommend! Mains 🍖 Lamb Chops – Two perfectly cooked chops, juicy with no gaminess. The veggies on the side were delicious too—great for non-fish lovers. 🐟 Miso-Glazed Cod – Fair warning: it’s on the salty side (keep water handy!). Served with a ginger-based orange sauce (skip if you dislike ginger) and a massive piece of tempura eggplant—hearty and filling! Dessert 🍫 Love Cake – A triple-chocolate mousse cake! Dense brownie base topped with rich chocolate mousse, served chilled with chocolate crumbles. Not overly sweet—a perfect sweet ending. #FrenchCuisine #Philly #PhillyFood #PhillyEats #RomanticDining #HiddenGem #DateNight
