Gregoire's in disguise!
Thursday, June 22, 2006
Socca, as it turns out, is a kind of Provencal pancake that's been around for nearly two hundred and fifty years. Here, they are covered with delicious and alluring items. For $6.75, you can get one slathered in slow-roasted pork and flavored with a mushroom duxelle and truffle oil. Now, truffles are popular around here, but rarely do I see them on something so reasonably priced. Plus, it comes in the fancy Gregoire's take-away box, an octagonal cardboard affair that I think you can bring back for a discount on your next dish. Best of all: they cook with fire and you can watch!
