We started with the escargot and the baby beets as appetizers. The baby beets dish, featuring goat cheese and pear vinaigrette, was refreshing. The escargot was served in the traditional style with butter, Burgundy wine, parsley, and garlic—it was amazing, especially paired with the house-made bread, which was perfect for soaking up the sauce. For our main courses, I ordered the duck and sausage, while the doctor opted for the lobster risotto. We decided to share both dishes to sample everything. I must say, the duck and sausage with the carrot ginger puree was incredibly buttery and smooth, melting in your mouth. Overall, I would definitely return to this place. I've visited their Midtown location, Artisan’s, before, and it's also a fantastic restaurant.
