OrderThe wood-fired pizza of the week; salted caramel budino for dessert, the dish that built its reputation.

Forsythia in Philadelphia is Christopher Kearse's modern French bistro on Chestnut Street in Old City, a 2025 Michelin Guide selection with rabbit porchetta.
OrderThe escargot with parsley and shallots; the duck if it appears on that night's tasting menu.

OrderPho dac biet (the everything bowl); banh xeo crepe; sugarcane shrimp paste with rice paper rolls.
