Le swanky Sofitel (120 S. 17th St.) has about a hundred new guests: the tomato, squash, pepper and herb plants sprouting in from its new rooftop garden, Jardin des Fleur de Lis. Under the direction of executive chef Jim Coleman, who came on board in March, the garden will supply the hotel’s Liberte Lounge, as well as the employee cafeteria. Coleman will use the garden's crops all spring and summer; lavender, mint and other herbs are already making their way to the bar for frosty glasses of maison sangria.
