This time it was dinner. Aug 3, 2017.
Bouchon is a very nice way to have a great meal and a great time. This was the first for us eating dinner at Bouchon. Here's the story:
Cocktails. Pricey but exceptionally well made. We enjoyed both the 1806 Old Fashioned and the Knob Creek Manhattan. Both changed my life, meaning I replicate their formula on a regular basis at home. A life-changing change.
Apps enjoyed included deviled eggs, mixed greens salad and the tomato salad. These, plus the exceptional bread and butter were a good start to an already good evening.
Entrees enjoyed included the swordfish, steak frites, gnocchi, and poulet (chicken). Each was seemingly simple but prepared in exceptional manner and presented accordingly. No complaints... and all dishes were wiped clean with a second round of bread. Rather impolite of us, but why not... we recommend enjoying every bite offered.
Dessert... profiteroles and chocolate bouchons. Wonderful. And for me, I can't recall if it was coffee, regular or Irish. Whichever it was I was a happy diner.
A warm thanks to Coby and the team in the kitchen!
