French Market New Menu

[Queenbillabong]

Has anyone been to the French Market lately since the new menu was implemented???? We are just finalizing (meaning changing AGAIN!!!) where we want to eat on our upcoming trip (next weekend - yahoo!!) and this looks good but I wanted to get some opinions from people who have been.

Thanks

We ate lunch there a week ago today. Here is a picture of the Clam Chowder in the bread bowl with salad. It was very good.

We went awhile ago when they first had the new menu. We missed the steak fries

I had the chicken and it was very tasty and moist! The mashed potatoes I did not like. I hate onions, and thought the brown stuff I saw in the potatoes were skins, nope- sauteed onions! bleck! But the cornbread muffin was good.

The wife had the cheese pasta, and liked it, but thought it tasted like ham, and since she is vegetarian, she wasn't happy about that :/

I can't remember...where online can I read the new menu?

We went right when they changed to the new menu. We had the chicken with mashed potatos and the clam chowder bowl. Both were good. We liked the old menu better though.

OK - looks good to me. Probably won't try the mashed potatoes...... Thanks everyone!

The chicken sounds okay. But mashed potatoes with onions? No thanks. And I don't like corn bread.

I miss the beef stew. I don't see myself eating there. If I do, I'll get a garden salad. I hope they still have the italian vinegrette dressing that I like.

Did anyone order the children's citrus chicken? Maybe I'd order that.

This was our favorite restaurant. Not since the menu change.

There was 6 of us and no body was happy with their food. Not to mention it is very pricey now. So for our group Cafe Orleans next door was less expensive and much better.

haha whats funny is that my mom grew up in a little tiny hole in the wall town in GA and since my grandparents were adults during the depression they ate alot of vegetable meals because of the cost of meat then...even after the depression was over they still continued to eat like that and did so their entire life...

my mom married and moved away from GA but growing up she would go through this "vegetable meal withdrawel" or something and we would end up eating greens, blackeyed peas, fried squash (which is amazing btw), cornbread and mashed potatoes with onions and mayo...as crazy as it sounds...its sooooooooooooooooo flipping good...you just make mashed potatoes like normal and then add mayo and chopped onion and black pepper...it takes on a completely different taste and is very creamy...you should try it before you scoff at it

I don't like onions or mayo so that may be an issue.

We ate at the French Market recently - I was not impressed with the new menu. I had the pasta, which was rich (tasted mostly like the smoked gouda cheese, so that might have been what a previous poster thought was a ham flavor), but was not very satisfying. The corn bread was terrible!!! I took one bite and left the rest. Yuck.

Love this!! Growing up ina small town in Texas, we had a HUGE garden 1 full acre of about 25 different veggies. Since the fresh meat selection was always lacking, our summer meals were always meatless. Fried squash, squash balls with chease, bell peper, onion and bread crumbs (YUM!!), and definatley mashed potatoes with suateed onions. I never make my mashed potatoes without them now! Maybe it's a southern thing! As for puttin mayo in a hot dish, it really works like sour cream but doesn't break down like sour cream. And it definately reheats better than sour cream
