L'Escargots in Parsley Butter
When I have escargot, it is usually served baked with a ton of cheese and garlic. I am now having it the French way. Audrey, our gorgeous server from France, suggested the app be eaten with the baguette. It was pretty combined because I found the parsley butter to be quite strong on its own. Definitely not for the squeamish since the texture of escargots can be quite alarming, lol.

Cheese Platter
I love cheese! I especially love the soft stinky cheeses. I found this to be delightful especially when eaten along with the plump, sweet, grapes. I loved the Camembert, the blue, and the goat cheese the most. The firm Gouda was also good. I definitely emulated Remy when tasting this dish. I combined the flavours together and enjoyed the little gourmet fireworks of taste. It was an excellent cheese platter.

Angus Burger on a Brioche Bun
DH liked his burger!
Crepe Florentine
The crepe itself was huge. The chunks of chicken breasts inside the crepe was huge. I barely ate a quarter of the crepe. I found it to be disappointing just because I found the bechamel sauce to be scarce as well as the veggie components: the mushrooms and spinach. I wish they put in less chicken and balanced it out with more sauce and veggies.

Fruits Sorbet with a Madeleine
This was DH's dessert but I pillaged it. It was absolutely gorgeous, tasty, and simple. Yes, I ate the Madeleine but DH offered.

Vanilla Creme Brûlée
The crispy layer was very fragile and gave way to a sumptuous creamy layer. The vanilla cream was whipped, decadent, and lovely. This was a lovely way to finish the meal.

Overall again, I loved the apps and the desserts and didn't care for the entree. I gets a solid 4/5. Our server Audrey was lovely and excellent. I thanked her in French when we left. I said, "Votre service est fantastique. Merci pour un experience incroyable." My French is super rusty. It means your service was fantastic and thank you for an incredible experience. She smiled and giggled at the compliment.
