Posted Feb 05 2012 12:00am

Yesterday we went to L’auberge Chez Francois to have lunch as to say goodbye to my Dad who left on this morning.

It’s a traditional french cuisine restaurant with nice ambiance, good service and delicious food. Star found it and I must say he was a great find. :)

while we go through the extensive menu, warm onion baguette and bread were served

We decided to try the lunch menu that they offer, starting with a pre-appetizer: mini quiche

as entree: mom had Pinot Noir boneless braised beef short ribs with seasonal vegetables

I helped her with one piece, it was scrumptious!!!!! I don’t usually like beef, but I do like this kind, A LOT!

Dad had Fresh trout sautéed with seasonal vegetables and toasted almonds

Star tried the Fresh calf’s liver sautéed with bacon, caramelized onions and vegetables

and I picked Beef Bourguignon, spaëtzles and seasonal vegetables

I had a little over half of the portion, which is a lot of meat! It was so good that I’m now determined to find a recipe for this and recreate it at home!!!!
