| - We didn't have plans to dine at Mon Ami Gabi on this night. We were gonna eat somewhere downtown, but it was scary and we headed back to Paris. I ran back to the room to drop off our box of Dunkin Donuts, and my husband grabbed a table. The wait for the outdoor seats was 90 minutes, so he just nabbed a seat inside.
Our waiter was very sweet, making a few jokes after I finally showed up. The fresh, crusty bread came with this cherry tomato/corn salad thing that was delicious. I had the half chicken & frites, while the husband had the chicken paillard. My chicken was very herby, and the chicken skin (my favorite part) was nicely crisped. The husband loved the paillard. He got a side of macaroni gratin, which he loved, but I wasn't that crazy about it. Even our glasses of Roy Rogers tasted better than most places.
My only real gripe is that it was a little too dark inside. I know it was all about the ambiance, but I still wanted to see where I was cutting my chicken.
Going by all the reviews, it sounds like we'll have to try their breakfast.
