Paris Gourmet -Restaurant -Bistro-Deli-Catering
The cuisine draws upon the styles of Provence, but the Chef modulates French traditions in imaginative ways. Courses focus on the pristine flavors of ingredients and judicious seasoning rather than butter drenched creams and heavy sauces. Each serving delivers superlative textures and the presentation is always eye-catching.
The Chef’s formal culinary training began in Mazamet, then on to Paris followed by stints in luxury hotels on the French Rivera and various alpine ski resorts. Before settling in Palm Beach County, he operated his own restaurant in Red Bank, New Jersey.
While uncompromising on quality, the Vidal’s are more than flexible when it comes to pricing. The $19.95 Prix Fixe menu (available every day) offers a main course with the choice of either appetizer or dessert. Starters include the superlative Warm Goat Cheese Crouton mesculun salad bathed with a vibrant olive oil and balsamic dressing. A bountiful serving of scrumptious French Onion Soup is well worth the additional $2. So is the incomparable Escargot Traditionels featuring airy puff pastry surrounded by clusters of the ambrosial mollusks.
To say that the entrees are supremely flavorful is an understatement. Tilapia arrives crusted with a black olive tapenade and enhanced with sauce vierge crafted from a mix of sun dried tomatoes, capers, olives and shallots. The succulent Lamb Shank is marinated for hours and then slowly cooked to maximize the flavor and tenderness. Sides of scalloped potatoes, sautéed spinach and seasoned tomato are fabulous.
Don’t hesitate to order from the moderately priced wine list with offerings by the bottle and the glass.
