Bibou at Amis Industry Night tonight

Bibou (1009 S. Eighth St.), the culinary child of Pierre and Charlotte Calmels, is turning three, and Brad Spence of Amis (412 S. 13th St.) is throwing a birthday party-themed Industry Night tonight in honor of the French BYOB. Calmels is preparing a tripe-centric dish — perhaps a version of his mainstay braised tripe (pictured above) — and a traditional French stew for the celebration, while Spence is serving his take on French onion soup along with porchetta and house-pickled vegetables. For dessert, they'll have semifreddo in three layers to resemble the French tricolor. Come for the Calmels, stay for the Champagne (and beer and seasonal cocktails and shots, if you want). Standard Industry Night practices apply: free food, drink specials, cool guests, tipping well,  restaurant pay stub necessary for entry. Sorry civilians, you're just going to have to stay home watching Amelie.
