点评:Brought the family here for fathers day with some high expectations as I had some french out of towners. We loved the seating, but there was quite a confusion to reserve a table for the time we needed.
Then when I arrived to check in before the rest of the party came in, it was quite a chilly welcome, though slowly warmed up throughout the afternoon. Though our server was amazing and so patient and accommodating, it did take quite a while for the service to start--of course they were understandably busy, it being a holiday. And he had to keep going into the kitchen to check about our requests as we had quite a few vegetarians in the group.
Now on to the food:...
I had brought my mom here several years before as this has been a well loved establishment in downtown Wheaton. We really enjoyed it back then.
This past weekend however, we were quite disappointed with a majority of the orders, both veg and non veg.
1- food did not seem fresh/vibrant - it was a bit overcooked. Salad however, was lovely.
2-Crepes as a salty dish must have a different flour used than dessert crepes (the flour is able noir - darker and crispier than the yellow soft dessert version.)
3-quiche was overdone but nice flavor, and not hot.
4-i ordered crepes banana foster, and then was told they ran out of bananas - (there's a grocery down the street..?)
so then changed to creme brûlée. which was to come with biscotti (the main reason i ordered it ;)
The brûlée finally arrived, but it was in fact, chocolate mousse flavor and texture, and hardly crispy on top. the chocolate was very strong i immediately got a headache, and then they were trying to tell me that the desert has changed and does not include biscotti anymore, when i got up to find someone to ask about it.
However, my server did end up bringing on over, and that was delicious, i must say!
perfectly baked and flavored, crumbly light chocolate chip biscotti. THANK YOU.
Also, the bakery and wine selection had a nice selection, the former from which we which we took brought some home.
I really hope some of these improvements are made, and that when or if we return, we will come back to the way we remember this place being. I was looking forward to trying the high tea menu some time as it looks incredible!
Thank you for your attention.
翻译:带着家人来这里过父亲节,因为我有一些来自城镇的法国人,所以寄予厚望。我们喜欢这里的座位,但在我们需要的时间预订一张桌子却很混乱。
然后,当我在其他人进来之前到达办理入住手续时,这是一个相当冷淡的欢迎,尽管整个下午都在慢慢升温。虽然我们的服务员很棒而且非常耐心和乐于助人,但服务确实需要很长时间才能开始——当然他们很忙是可以理解的,因为这是假期。而且他不得不继续进入厨房检查我们的要求,因为我们小组中有很多素食者。
现在说说食物:...
几年前我带妈妈来过这里,因为这是惠顿市中心一家深受喜爱的酒店。那时我们真的很享受。
然而,在过去的这个周末,我们对大部分订单感到非常失望,包括蔬菜和非蔬菜。
1 - 食物看起来不新鲜/生机勃勃——有点煮过头了。然而,沙拉很可爱。
2-作为咸菜的可丽饼必须使用与甜点可丽饼不同的面粉(面粉是黑色的——比黄色的软甜点版本更黑、更脆。)
3-乳蛋饼做得过头了,但味道不错,而且不热。
4-我点了 crepes banana foster,然后被告知他们的香蕉用完了 -(街上有一家杂货店..?)
所以后来改成了焦糖布丁。这是和意大利脆饼一起来的(我订购它的主要原因;)
布丁终于上来了,但实际上是巧克力慕斯的味道和质地,上面几乎不脆。巧克力非常浓,我立刻头疼,然后他们试图告诉我沙漠已经改变并且不再包括意大利脆饼,当我起身找人询问时。
然而,我的服务器最终还是带来了,那太好吃了,我必须说!
完美烘烤和调味,易碎的轻巧克力脆饼。谢谢你。
此外,面包店和葡萄酒的选择也很不错,我们从前者那里带了一些回家。
我真的希望其中的一些改进能够实现,并且当我们返回或如果我们返回时,我们将回到我们记忆中的这个地方。我很期待尝试一下下午茶菜单,因为它看起来棒极了!
感谢您的关注。
