Escargot in garlic herb butter. Grilled filet mignon. This was no ordinary filet. But what made this dish really special is the divine Cognac and cream sauce flavored with morel mushrooms that surrounds it. On the side were just-blanched, crisp snap peas.
Mushroom ravioli with squab and ratatouille.
The pasta was al dente and rich with mushroom flavor, the squab was tiny yet so juicy the dish was like a squab stew, and the ratatouille tasted like the ingredients were growing in the garden an hour before we walked in. There was fresh, ripe mango salsa on the side. Crispy roast duck. The duck is always top-notch here. It came baked in a ramekin.
