This place is adorable and if it werent for the fact that other diners were around you, you'd feel as though you were eating at home with a private French chef.
Our group started off with bread which they brought around to all the tables. They also gave us really good quality olive oil to go with it. It was aromatic and fresh. Yummmmm! Our table ordered some drinks; I was extra cool and got a cream soda (who likes alcohol anyway? Psh...) which was very tasty and strong.
We decided to skip the appetizers and go straight for the entrees so we wouldn't get too full for dessert. Our table ordered the walleye, rib eye, braised lamb shoulder and cassoulet so we could nibble bits and pieces of each other's dishes. Everyone's was delicious and juicy and had the characteristic buttery taste typical of French cuisine. By no means do I claim to be a French chef or expert as this was the first time I ever had cassoulet but I found my dish to be a little too salty for my taste. I loved the sausage, duck confit (for the delicious crispy skin) and lamb. I could have done without the chicken but my table gobbled it up.
We decided to check out the dessert menu out of curiosity. We had planned to go somewhere else for dessert but they caught our eye. My friend and I shared the cheesecake with creme fraiche. This is the definition of dessert. Light, creamy, not too sweet, with a cheese flavor that wasn't overpowering. Love!! Our table got other desserts but I didnt try them but they looked equally appetizing. Overall, we don't regret not going to our originally planned dessert place.
We also got some coffee, also tasty and strong. I had two sips total and somehow I wasnt able to sleep for several hours last night...not sure if it's that or because I had napped earlier in the day.
