| - After a long, long day of meetings, our work associates hosted dinner at La Colombe. All I can tell you is they have seriously good taste. I enjoyed the most sumptuous meal I've had in a long time.
It's a small, one room place, with a simple, french-inspired menu of "cuisine du marche" or "cuisine of the market". And it's fixed price, no matter what course selections you make; though appetizers are extra.
I wasn't starving, so I went for a simple beet and greens salad to start. My entree was leg of lamb, and it was the best I've ever had...in my life: falling off the bone and perfectly seasoned, over a bed of what appeared to be black-eyed peas in bacon-infused sauce (I don't exactly know what it was, except Good). Dessert was a perfect blueberry tart with a matching cup of perfect coffee.
La Colombe is BYOB. Our associates had taken care of this as well. Did I mention their good taste? They brought quite a bit of excellent wine, and they didn't seem to want to have any left over. It was a good thing I took a cab.
