*NEW* Moelleux aux Oignons Caramélisés et au Fromage de Chèvre: Egg Moelleux, Goat Cheese and Caramelized Onions – $7.95
This has a quiche-like texture. It tastes mostly like butter, salt, and cheese. The flavors aren’t varied enough.

*NEW* Brioche aux Escargots: Escargot Brioche with Garlic and Parsley Cream – $7.95
There was barely any escargot filling and it had a little grit. But the flavor was good. It’s garlic-forward.

Boeuf Bourguignon, Pommes de Terre Roties: Braised Short Ribs in Cabernet with Roasted Potatoes – $7.95
The beef was tender and the cabernet sauce was good, but frankly, this just reminded us of a Stouffer’s microwave meal. The puffed potato balls were the best part, but that alone is not a reason to order this.

*NEW* Crème Brûlée Mangue et Passion a la Confiture: Mango Passion Crème Brûlée with Fruit Compote – $5.95
The top was delicious and crisp, the custard is great, but the compote is not. It weakens the dish overall.

*NEW* Mas La Chevalière, Pinot Noir, Pays d’oc ($18/bottle) – $6.95
Wilson Daniels says that this wine “has a bright ruby color. The nose has a sensation of black fruit, and fleshy, ripe cherries with a hint of spice. Very well-balanced on the palate, delicious with very soft tannins.”
*NEW* Guillaume Touton, Brut de Pêche, Épernay ($14/bottle) – $6.95
From Potomac Wines & Spirits: “A sparkling wine from the south of France which is infused with peaches to create an off dry and aromatic sparkling wine. Suitable for those who dislike the dryness of champagne and prefer a fuller flavor.”
Frozen French Cosmo: Vodka, Grey Goose Le Citron Vodka ($27/bottle), Grand Marnier ($36/bottle) and Cranberry Juice – $14.95
This is basic, but good basic. It’s what the people want. It’s exactly what you expect it to be and it’s nice and refreshing.
Rank out of 7: 6
*NEW* Cocktail au Gin et Aux Fraises: Rose d’Argent Strawberry Gin ($17/bottle), Cranberry Juice and DOLE® Pineapple Juice – $13.95
This looks like dirty mop water. Luckily, it tastes better than it looks. We were pretty divided on this one. It’s pineapple-forward. If this is your type of drink, it’s a solid choice. If you’re iffy, skip it.
