Whoever thought of Restaurant Week, I would like to hug around the neck and then thank profusely. What a marvelous idea. My girlfriend and I were lucky enough to dine at Mistral. It's one of the cities finest eateries...
Trendy sitting area.
If you insist.
Now I know why it's on the top of every restaurant list. The atmosphere is chic, the food is to die for, it was so much fun just to say I went. Onto the good stuff...
First course.
Not wanting food envy, my friend and I ordered the same appetizer and entree. We began with a lovely Chilled Summer Corn Soup with Avocado & Jumbo Lump Crab, finished with a jalapeno oil. We didn't realize how smart it was was until our Skillet Roasted Sirloin with “Pommes de Terres Lyonnaise”, Crumbled English Stilton & Port Wine Sauce arrvied. There was no way we were willing to share...
Second course.
Dessert was a different story. Wanting the best of both worlds, we happily split the Dark Chocolate Mousse and Warm Peach & Almond Tarte with Vanilla Ice Cream and Basil Syrup. You can bet I'll be back next year...
Third course.
Part two.
