| - if i could afford to, and if my body could process such rich foods on a daily basis, id eat here everyday for the rest of my life... wuhhht? such high praise! but if you love food, i dont see how youd be disappointed by this restaurant!
what i ate (came for brunch):
- baguette w/butter and apricot jam: made me question the sanity of people on atkins. how can you give up bread?! especially when it tastes soooo good?
- basket of pastries: came with pain au chocolat, apple danish, two jelly filled doughnuts (actually, probably beignets), some type of brioche: perfection. awesome way to get a taste of all the wonderful bouchon pastries. good if you have a few people in your group
- daily special: summer vegetable hash: lovely summer veggies (squash, potatoes, cherry tomatoes, etc) topped with scrambled eggs, and covered with hollandaise sauce. accompanied by brioche toast. delicious! the veggies on their own were a tad salty, but it was perfect when eaten with the eggs, hollandaise and brioche
- chicken and waffles: famous for a reason. juicy succulent chicken, flavorful chive waffles. crazy amazing gravy that i wanted to bathe in. vanilla bean butter.
- daily quiche: lorraine: wonderful quiche! not too heavy on the egg, but a nice dense quiche that was flavorful. perfectly accompanied by a salad tossed in a vinaigrette.
- creme caramel: if you like flan, youll love this
- tarte au citron: im a huge fan of lemon anything, but this was a little bit too tart for my taste. i couldnt help making a small grimace from the intense sourness after each bite. but, that didnt keep me from continually taking more and more bites
- chocolate mousse: really lovely dark chocolate mouse
- coffee mousse: maybe this wasnt coffee mousse (i cant find it on the menu now) but it was great! came out with sugar cookies, perfect for dipping
- creme brulee: perfection
- coffee
- bloody mary: perfect bloody mary - spicy
pros:
- food: uhm, i can probably wax on forever about the food. NOTHING i had was off or bland or boring. it was simple, but perfection. everything was done WELL. no rubbery eggs, nothing too salty, nothing burnt, just perfect
- service: wonderful. super attentive server that always checked up on us. never had to ask for more water
- decor: super comfortable without being ostentatious or too stuffy. it felt comfortable
cons:
- price: the food was not cheap... but, i didnt mind. the food was THAT good. it was worth every penny. save up and treat yourself!
- no reservations for brunch, but when we got there at noon on sunday, there didnt seem that much of a wait
again, if you love GOOD food, i dont see how youd be disappointed by this place. ... im starting to feel thankful that theres one in LA so that i dont have to drive out to vegas
