Different French classics on the Hors D’oeuvres menu at Parc Restaurant embody Sardines with Bordier Butter, Mushroom Tart with Truffle Pecorino (yum, proper?), Tuna Carpaccio with a Leek French dressing and Charcuterie, which they serve with Pate Campagne, Duck Rillette, and Jambon de Bayonne. We needed to strive the Rooster Liver Parfait, which they high with a Crimson Wine Gelee and a aspect of Cherry-Pistachio Bread.
Subsequent up was the Salmon Tartare, which we thought may be an excessive amount of, however the waiter insisted we strive it and so . . . we did. Their model contains Espelette, which has a kick to it — paired completely with a Dry Rose (they introduced out a Cotes De Provence Domaine Gavoty “Grand Classique”) which had us at hiya. It was a lighter possibility than the appetizer that Anthony was leaning in direction of – the Ricotta Ravioli. When eating with an Italian, it’s a problem to steer them away from a home made pasta.
Then there’s the Tuna Carpaccio – OMG, it was so so recent. I used my lettuce leaves to scoop it up quite than a fork and paired it with a scrumptious Chardonnay . . . the 2022 French Domaine Chene Burgundy to be exact.
My favourite? Every thing we tasted on the appetizer menu was delicious, however my high vote has to go to the hen liver pate. BTW, in case you are a recent seafood lover, be positive to verify out their oysters, littleneck clams, lobster or shrimp cocktail or a king crab leg. They provide two plateau sizes if you wish to splurge (for 1-3 folks and for 4-6).
Should you need one thing a little extra easy, they additionally provide sandwiches and salads. In keeping with our waiter Ryan, probably the most common lunch orders from locals embody the Roast Beef Sandwich, the Mozzarella and Tomato Baguette and the Heat Shrimp Salad, which they serve with a Lemon Beurre Blanc and Avocado.
The dishes are hearty for a French restaurant, so that you gained’t depart hungry, whether or not you decide for a salad, sandwich or one of their extra intensive main dishes. Epic dishes on the entree record embody Croque Monsieur, Quiche Lorraine (deliver on the Gruyere and Bacon s’il vous plait), and Beef Bourguignon with Root Veggies, Lardons and Pommes Puree.
Anthony went for the Moules Frites which included White Wine, Shallots, Bay Leaves and Garlic. Since he as soon as lived in Belgium, he has a smooth spot for mussels and tends to order them once they’re on the menu.
They inspired the Trout Amandine, so out it got here. Ready conventional French model, it was topped with a lemon brown butter sauce and almonds. On the aspect? Haricots Verts naturally.
Fish lovers will need to notice that they provide a Mediterranean Sea Bass with a Tapenade and Roasted Peppers and Salmon with Mustard-Braised Brussels Sprouts. For lunch, you can at all times decide for the Nicoise Salad as nicely or the Beet Salad with a Fennel Pollen Cream, Goat Cheese and Hazelnuts.
