It is a form of French cuisine that emphasizes the blending of haute gastronomic expertise, seasonality, and the traditional “cuisine de terroir” found in bistros across France.

This place was just right. My wife and I often split a salad and a meal. They did not even blink an eye. The salad and meal were both split in the kitchen and no one would know by looking at the served dishes that the meal was meant for one. We’ll be back.
