On my next many visits, I plan to indulge myself<br />

with items on their menu that I have not tried yet, but<br />

which have come highly recommended. I’ll start with the<br />

Count Stroganoff Meatballs, roasted garlic meatballs,<br />

crème fraiche sautéed mushrooms and fresh chives.<br />

Then I’ll move onto Le French Burger, featuring an<br />

egg, bacon and luscious béarnaise sauce with a side of<br />

garlic fries, and the John Wayne Artisan Flatbread Pizza<br />

topped with filet mignon, caramelized onion and gorgonzola,<br />

all the while sipping my tasty flights of wine.<br />

Advancing into dessert, I’d try the Croissant Bread<br />

Pudding (I am not normally a big fan of any bread pudding)<br />

with flaky croissants, Grand Marnier, chocolate and<br />

raisins, finished with a white chocolate and raspberry<br />

sauce. I don’t think I could resist trying it. The Crème<br />

Brulee and Key Lime Pie I cannot pass up as they are<br />

two of my favorites as well as the Chocolate Fondue.<br />

Happy hour is daily, with an assortment of wine,<br />

cocktails, martinis, beer and flavorsome bites to choose.<br />

Among the offerings are Ahi Tuna Guacamole, Chipotle<br />

Pork Tostadas, Fried Pickles, Mac and Cheese a la<br />

Indulge, Mahi Tacos, and a selection of their favorite<br />

Artisan Flatbread Pizzas. Yum!<br />
