text: I had heard good things about Bon Appetit being a newish localfoods cafe in Madison and so had been excited to try it But we left the restaurant very disappointed nnFor one thing there was almost nothing that could have possibly been local in our meals as far as I could tell The majority of the dishes on the small menu featured nonseasonal fruits and vegetables like avocado and strawberry and tomato On top of that the nonlocal foods we did have were prepared in fairly bland ways and such small portions especially given the relatively steep prices entrees at The food was fine but given these caveats really not worth it nnAnd although the service was passable the fact that the waitress and chef sat and talked very loudly in the most boring ways possible about movie trivia through our whole meal have you seen that one movie with that British gal You know the one who was married to Nathan Lane Oh you mean the one who won that Emmy made the whole setting very uncomfortable And because the place was so small and we were the only patrons in the restaurant we could hear all the clattering in the kitchen and had trouble focusing on our own conversation nnWe will not be returning nnAnnie Hall reference nYes I realize I offered some movie trivia of my own
