So much for the bistro. Frederick Twomey's homage to the varietals
and flavors of France explores a different side of Francophilia: "that
modern, bullet-train side that isn’t stuck in the Belle Epoque,” he says. This
forward-thinking philosophy carries over to the kinetic,
Scandinavia-esque design—with its curved ceiling—and a
progressive wine list that highlights “wine-makers that take risks in
breaking the rules." The piece de resistance,
however, is a classical menu from Eric Hubert, who provides an almost
Baroque-like contrast to the restaurant’s modern vibe with
dough-centric offerings such as beef Wellington eclair; a souffle of
blue cheese, bacon and pear; and salmon-and-cream-cheese quiche.
