French dinner date with my Dr. P.



We had a $50 voucher which I purchased from OpenTable for $25.



Their Bistro $20 dinner was such a good deal. You can get two choices of salad, dessert or wine + one main entree for only $20!


Bread

The herbed butter was delicious!


Amuse-bouche

Amuse bouche of th enight was watermelon with herbed goat cheese.


Louis Martini Cabernet Sauvignon ($9.00) / House White Wine

My house white wine came with the $20 Bistro dinner set. It was lovely. Dr. P enjoyed his Cabernet Sauvignon as well.


Escargot Cassolette ($14.00)
Parsley Garlic Butter, House Made Croutons

Love love love the parsley garlic butter! I can eat 2 baskets of bread with the butter.


Mixed Green Salad

My mixed green salad was also included with the $20 Bistro dinner.


Endive Salad ($10.00)
Belgian Endive, Roquefort, Walnuts, Wholegrain Mustard Dressing

Dr. P's Endive Salad was great. The slightly sweet mustard dressing + cheese + walnut was a perfect balance for the bitter endive.


Poisson Frite ($20.00)
Baked White Bass, Pomme Frites, Haricot Vert, Capers Beurre Blanc

My fish was a bit too salty. I liked the fries better than the fish.


Oven Roasted NZ Rack of Lamb ($32.00)
Dijon-Crusted, Vegetable Moussaka, Celery Root Purée, Pesto Bordelaise

Dr. P's rack of lamb was alright. Not bad, but not memorable.



Service was really good at French 75. Overall, we enjoyed the wine, appetizer and salads. But their main entrees were just so-so. With the discount voucher, it was a pretty good deal for French restaurant.
