| - How good can Tomas Keller get? Bouchon good!. Although I have never been to French Laundry, I can only imagine it would be fabulous after eating at Bouchon.
I was there three times in the last month and have reservations to go again next month.
The lamb and ratattoulle dish was delish. If you don't like a gamey taste, you might not like it. It has a small hint of game, most people who tried it said they couldn't taste it.
The Croque Madamme looked amazing! and it tasted amazing. It's pretty rich so it might be something you can share.
I also had the Trout. It was good, but not my favorite. Cooked well, and paired well with a light sauce.
For breakfast I had the Au Gratin. This was by far the best dish I had there. scallop potatoes are served on the side, while the main part of the dish is served in a small cast iron pan keeping warm a creamy, cheesy, oh so delicious treat. It was a deconstructed au gratin that should not be challenged. Can you tell I liked it? :)
The service was excellent. The first time I went for a large party and they gave us the private dining room, which usually has a 2000 min, since no one had booked it.
When we were there for breakfast, they were VERY slow, but they knew it. (they were having a little trouble with the homemade Brioche being ready). So they gave us complimentary pastries, 5 pieces, and free espresso.
Over all great meal. that's why we're going back again.
