| - Despite several negative comments on YELP, I figured I would check out Le Gourmand for lunch today.
I didn't have a chance to savour their famous cookies or coffee, but, I did grab a grilled beef sandwich.
I have to say, that first bite was delicious, as it had the perfect amount of cheese and beef!
I've heard so much about the "crazy" prices they charged, but, I was actually impressed with the $8.76 the meal cost (sandwich and bottle of water).
Believe it or not, that's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper than some of the places in the area where it can cost as much as $13 for, essentially, the same thing.
Even though I was by myself, it looks like it would be a great place to meet up with friends/colleagues (there's even a decent sized patio, if you want to catch some rays while eating your meal).
Anyways, it was my first time, and definitely won't be my last time. When I do venture back, I'm definitely trying one those cookies I've read (and heard) so much about!
(I'm scoring this a 4, because I only had the sandwich and I'd like to sample some of their other goods before I move it to a 5!)
One tip - Like any place in this area, you need to get there a bit early, or later, to avoid the chaotic lunchtime rush.
