You know you want one: Parc handing out free baguettes tomorrow

Parc (227 S. 18th St., 215-545-2262), which opened on Rittenhouse last Bastille Day, is celebrating its first year in swellegant sidewalk-crowding business by handing out free fresh-baked baguettes to the first 500 carboloaders who ask for one tomorrow.

Here's what CP's Trey Popp had to say about the stuff back in September '08:

My lunchtime lamb sandwich would have been a winner by dint of bread alone. And that's what really endeared me to Parc. Entr�es and apps are priced fairly by Rittenhouse standards, but my favorite pleasure � along with the prime people-watching � came at no charge. Crusty, textured, baked every day on premises, these baguettes and country loaves are what every Stateside bistro should aspire to.

I know for a fact that Parc recently brought in some new bread bakers recently, so this is probably a way to gauge the public's opinion of their new baguettes.
