| - After my Table Ten dinner experience(which was superb) the following morning I skipped work and had brunch at Bouchon.
We went in at around 10 on a Sunday, so it was busy, but not too bad of a wait though.( 10 minutes)
Our waitress was in training, believe it was her second day, but still didn't diminish our experience. Just had trouble with some of the words, it is French afterall. I'm glad she was new instead of something else, like her hating her job.
The restaurant itself is very nice, much larger than I had thought. With an outdoor seating arrangement as well, which is by the pool area. But you really should enjoy that when you Can enjoy it. When it's warm.
Croissants and toast,(not together) came before us. Moderation is key, but the hell with that when it comes to pastries. Escpecially French ones. Very good but not surprised. That's how it should be.
The jam. Damn. My girlfriend was telling me how people snatch this up, and they actually sell it down in the bakery. That it's very, very popular. And when I tried it, I could see why, it was very fresh, it was just jam, but it was like I was eating it for the first time. You put jam to advance the toast, you put this jam on your toast because it's an edible plate.
Oh rite I ate food here too, sorry.
The HAM STEAK & EGGS($25) and OMELETTE du JOUR($17) was our entres. No complaints here, it's just after we ordered we started seeing all these other meals that looked much more scrumptious, with French fries and an omelette that was as big as a persons foot. Just good stuff. The omelette comes with either bacon or sausage. The sausage is very packed(with vitamins?). We kinda had our fill of the meat, because I'm assuming, by accident? I ordered a cutting board full of different meats sliced very thin. I guess I ordered it. I just said yes when he(my waiter) said something French. So don't be embarassed to ask, or say something when you're not sure, like me. No regrets though, had I not inadvertently said oui, I wouldn't have gotten whatever it is I ordered. Which was very good by the way.
Oh and I believe I might have built up that jam up just a tad. I mean it's good, but I don't want you to think somethings wrong with me if you don't like it......................... Maybe somethings wrong with you.
