Another reason I love this city! Ok, here is this little cottage set upon a hill-it even sounds like the beginning of a good story,and when you enter you are met by these people that make you feel so genuinely at ease, that no matter how crazy your day was, it now seems so manageable. We were seated and there was just this atmosphere of relaxation-it is hard to describe. The food was very good-my husband ordered escargot for his appetizer and I the french onion soup-both very savory. The escargot are served in the shell and the onion soup was flambeed tableside. Our salads were nice and cold and the homemade dressing was so good that I brought some home with me. For my entree, I chose the Cornish game hen (an off the menu item) and seriously, it was beautifully presented and very, very good. The sauce was loaded with cherries and brandy-a good combination and one I had never tried before on poultry-it works without being too sweet. My husband ordered a filet mignon and a broiled lobster tail- very nice and cooked just as he had ordered.\r
Too full to enjoy dessert, we opted for a couple of irish coffees -mine was made with Baileys Irish cream and my husband went the more traditional way and had the Irish whiskey in his-we were content!\r
So we not only will talk about this with our friends, we will be back not only for the food, but for the whole experience-\r
