La Mere is NOT a French Restaurant... and it has nothing French about it!!
La Mere is just the Northern Chinese restaurant doing small plates. It's Chinese name means "Old Mother Meat Cake". Since it is their specialities I decided to try one of those.
Stuffed Beef Pancake ($4.50) took a little while to arrive as it was made to order. The beef was minced and it was juicy and savoury. It was filling too!! I ordered a congee ($1) to go with the pancake and it made a really authentic Northern Chinese cuisine experience!
La Mere is really a single friendly restaurant because all their dishes are smaller portion at a cheaper price point! That's why there were at least another 3 singles eating in the restaurant while I was there!!
