Bibou's Pierre Calmels at Zama Monday night

Bibou chef/co-owner Pierre Calmels will hop behind the sushi bar at his buddy Zama Tanaka's Zama (128 S. 19th St.) this coming Monday, June 6, for a little French-bistro-by-way-of-Tokyo action. First order of business for the chef will be learning how to make the "Bibou Roll" — dashi butter-sautéed escargot, haricots verts and fennel maki, topped with edamame and shiso — Tanaka recently introduced as a fundraiser for CHOP. Calmels will then stick around to cook during dinner service; no official word yet on specific dishes or whether they'll be a set menu option, but regardless seems like a choice opportunity to eat some good fish from a cheffing fish out of water.
