| - Brunch review:
Summary: get the chicken and waffles, service is good, oversized French bistro atmosphere.
Service: excellent, unpretentious, helpful but not overbearing.
Atmosphere: indoor seating area has high vaulted dealings. French bistro seating with beautiful tiling. Outdoor seating area overlooks fountains and the pool area with lush foliage. No umbrellas so shade is not always an option
Cuisine: ordered pastry assortment: chocolate croissants, plain croissants, lemon pastry, blueberry muffins and pecan roll. All lovely and as expected for bouchon, I just wish I could have enjoyed them warm. Main dishes: we ordered the croque madame, smoked salmon eggs Benedict with avocado, quiche Florentine, and the Poulet et des Gaufres (Chicken & waffles). All were excellent, perfectly seasons and not overly rich. The Chicken and waffles was exceptional. The chicken was roasted and perfectly moist, the chive-bacon waffle was very light, and the gravy gave the dish a savory twist.
I also ordered the hibiscus champagne. The rest of the table ended up doing the same. The edible candied flower floating in mesmerizing.... and delicious. It reminds me of fruit roll ups :)
