| - If memory serves me correctly, this might have been the best lunch I've ever had. (maybe the most $$$ as well, goes hand-in-hand).
Melted Brie with grilled apples, pears, strawberries? YUM !
3 onion Tarte? Very sweet, BUT the Sav Blanc cut through the sweetness with it's grassy edge & complimented it perfectly (you have to bring your own, if you don't already know).
The spicy Asparagus soup? SLURP! (again, i never thought I'd say this, but the wine went perfectly & cut through the heat quite nicely).
Filet Mignon on cibatta was interesting: diced, served with avocado, but the downer was that it suppose to be served with pomme frittes, but it came with like frito lay ripple chips - kinda really ruined the presentation - big time.
Italian coffee - o ya.
Chocolate Mint Grenache nauche Torte ? Heaven, I'm in heaven...
The half point demerit, or star - Wait a minute - u cant do that here !!! if i could, I would - the incessant pounding and banging in the kitchen !! They were tenderizing meat almost the entire time here - Grrrr - it's a very tiny place, so yes, we could definitely hear it. alot.
That said, it was a great afternoon. Very special. But certainly not in the pocket book to frequent again in the very near future. Next business dinner I would love to suggest the private dinning room & lounge for sure !
