Jean Claude Dufour is one incredible chef and his attentive staff serves with charm and gusto. The newly reopened apres vacation restaurant was well lit and welcoming. We were seated at a garden table that allowed us to enjoy great breezes and one mini rain shower!
We were sent two terrific amusees. The first was a thin and buttery foie gras slice with chopped olives and a bread crisp.
Then came a cup of chilled asparagus soup with a crispy bread crumble on top alongside a wonderful chunk of mahi mahi tatake over slaw.
FABULOUS STARTERS
The fois gras was the BEST ever! It was seared to perfection and came with litchee nuts, ****ake mushrooms, sliced asparagus spears and toast crisps.
The mixed green salad held many garden delights.
The foie gras with olive terrine and toast.
And the crab salad with citrus vinaigrette.
The tender filet of beef in a port sauce with creamy mashed potatoes
The herb crusted grouper came with bok choy, mushrooms, and other vegetables in a turmeric sauce
The thin and tender veal chops came with roasted thyme and sliced vegetables and an eggplant patty
The succulent veau sweetbreads and vegetables
For the birthday boy a flaming dessert!
The cake had a cookie crust and nuts and caramel topped with perfect sweet raspberries and rich and luscious chocolate coffee dollops of creamy icing , and a cool nut encrusted chocolate delight shared the plate--a sweet ending to a wonderful meal
