Oh yes, another delightful dinner – the last for the season – at Le Café de Paris in Boise. These dinners are such a treat and we will miss them until next season. But in the mean time, here is what we had.
The 1999 Charles Eilner Prestige Champagne went very well the the entire meal.
Le Menu
First Course
Huîtres Sur La Demi-Coquilles
(Oysters on the Half Shell)
with tarragon sorbet
Second Course
Foie Gras Torchon

Main Course
Ménage a Trois Pétoncles

Lemon Zest Bread Crumbs Roasted with Olive Oil and Poached Artichoke Hearts

OK. What else can I say? My only suggestion is to get on their mailing list. Until then, Cheers!
