Our Favorites
Short Rib Poutine
The Short Rib Poutine is the kind of starter that immediately sets the tone. Crisp, golden fries are layered with tender braised short rib and rich gravy, finished with perfectly melty cheese curds. It’s indulgent, savory, hearty, and deeply satisfying.
What makes this version shine is the depth of flavor. The short rib is slow-cooked until it practically melts, infusing the gravy with richness that soaks into every bite. It’s elevated comfort food that still feels bistro-appropriate.
Beef Bourguignon
The Beef Bourguignon is a standout entrée that leans confidently into its French roots. Slow-braised beef, simmered in red wine with aromatics and vegetables, delivers fork-tender texture and layered flavor. Served over creamy mashed potatoes, it’s a dish that feels timeless.
Each bite balances richness with subtle acidity from the wine reduction, creating a dish that’s luxurious without being heavy. This is the kind of entrée that invites you to slow down, sip your wine, and savor the evening.
Seared Duck Breast
For something refined yet deeply flavorful, the Seared Duck Breast is a must. The skin is crisped beautifully while the meat remains tender and juicy. Accompaniments like herbed farro, roasted fennel, and celery root purée create texture and balance, while a citrus gastrique adds brightness to cut through the richness.
It’s a composed, thoughtful dish that showcases technique without feeling fussy. Elegant, balanced, and memorable.
