Bouchon dinner.

Since we tried both the breakfast and brunch menus at Bouchon, we thought it was only fair to try the dinner one as well.  The fact that the restaurant was in our hotel made it that much more convenient.  The one thing that we found difficult was eating around show times.  We saw two shows while we were there and found we either had to eat really early or really late if we had a 7 or 7:30 PM show time. Our Bouchon reservation was for 5 PM which meant that the restaurant was almost empty, but it filled up rather quickly.




I would love this floor in our kitchen.

Escargots de Bourgogne.
Marinated snails in garlic parsley butter with puff pastry.


Classic french onion soup.


Steak frites.  Again, the fries were delicious, but the steak (flat iron) itself was pretty tough and a little over done. The caramelized shallots on top were a nice touch though. This was probably my least favorite meal of our trip.

Gigot d'agneau.
Roasted leg of lamb with cassoulet of pole beans, pickled lamb's tongue and savory infused lamb jus.

Profiteroles.
The ice cream was the best part of this dessert.  It was creamy and rich with vanilla flavor.  You could see the vanilla bean flecks.
