Dinner at Salle a Manger was the only thing capable of distracting me from my sexy date. Yes, it was that delicious.
On recommendation from a local, we ventured over to Le Plateau for dinner here and were not disappointed.
We shared Buffalo Mozz/Tomato/Pancetta salad, Foie Gras/Granny Smith salad, Scallop Ceviche, and the BBQ Pork Chop. While all the dishes were fresh, well-seasoned and delicious, the salads were hands-down the standouts.
* Creamy mozz, sweet tomato, crispy thick-cut pancetta with a bright pesto
* Creative combination of foie gras alongside tart green apple, sweet roasted pine nuts and a perfect drizzle of honey
Can't say enough about the attentive and friendly service.. no less than 4 different members of staff, including the Exec Chef and the Proprietor, stopped by to check on us.
Atmosphere is casual and funky fun with an open kitchen, reclaimed wood tables (made from old bowling alleys?), and low lights. The blackboard offers several dishes to share which many of the groups around us seemed to be enjoying.
The only sadness? I live 2500 miles away. Thank you for a lovely dinner Salle a Manger!
