Les Faux Bourgeois
Belated Mothers day dinner!
Sorry for the long delay, there has been a illness in my family.
But on with the show!
This restaurant has been on my radar for a while now, and finally decided to take the plunge, my family and I drive by this restaurant constantly but this is our first time dining here.
On with the food pics! Unfortunately I didn't take as many as I normally do.
My sister ordered the Onion tart
This was good, full of caramelized onion and crispy bacon topped with fresh ricotta cheese, very tasty. A lot of bacon!
Salad Niçoise
A tad salty, but the tuna and dressing really enriched this dish, my wife enjoyed it as did I.
Queue de Boeuf
Braised Oxtail ragu on a bed of mashed potatoes surrounded by a moat of rich sauce.
Moules Marinières
Mussels in a white wine sauce with garlic, shallots, cream and served with fries
I'm not a mussel person, but my aunt enjoyed the dish. The fries are crispy and served with a homemade garlic aioli. Yum!
Ruby Trout with potatoes in a tarragon butter sauce
The trout was cooked perfectly, very moist with some nice fingerling potatoes. A real winner here!
Duck Confit
A little dry, but the duck was tasty. My dad complained there was too much salad, and not enough duck!
Ha!
I unfortunately didn't get a picture of dessert, but we had a really amazing Creme brule, and a tasty Dark Chocolate mousse. Definitely order dessert!
This restaurant gets very high ratings from everyone I know, and I can say that I enjoyed the meal too, but I feel the Salade de Fruits is a better option. Prices are amazing here (almost every main is under $20), and great quality. But I feel that my meal could of been better. I will come again for sure, and try a different main course next time. Hopefully with better luck!
