CS outing yet (or at least we hoped it would be). We arrived feeling celebratory, and decided to have a glass of the delicious-looking pink bubbly that other loitering patrons were enjoying. When our server presented us with two confusing-sounding French champagne options, we tried our best to look like we knew what we were talking about, and ordered the rose. That ended up being a $32 per glass lesson in being comfortable looking ignorant (but damn, it was good!).Julie, Jeremy and I started with the foie gras, which was slightly disappointing given what Julie described as the liver-like veins running through her too-large piece. Brian went with the lobster risotto, which we all agreed was cheesy goodness. Second course was lobster with morel mushrooms, which was definitely my favorite and Julie's, who licked her plate clean...literally.
Dessert was slightly underwhelming, but probably because I had built up the cheese cart to godlike status and was only allowed to try four kinds instead of all twenty-six. The souffle everyone else ordered looked amazing but I've decided I'm more of a molten chocolate cake gal - the richer, the better. All in all, definitely a worthwhile trip and even better company. Satisfied BK?
