It’s elderly by restaurant standards, and the signs of age are there in Le Bec-Fin’s repeated attempts at hipness—still-high lower prices, à la carte menus, lighter French dishes, cautiously casual service. But this museum to fine dining is still an out-of-Philadelphia experience, and its greatest hits, from the hazelnut-butter-soaked escargots to the towering dessert cart, remain great.
