Pierre and Charlotte Calmels have no menu to show you yet, though they insist that prices will be lower than those at Bibou in South Philadelphia.
Le Cheri will be open Wednesday to Sunday for dinner only at the beginning.
Here is the menu.
It also will be BYOB until the liquor license arrives. Expect a list of French and Swiss wines.
