La Provence

I never understand people asking what they should order at places. Don't you have your own tastes? I've had wonderful meals there, and I think it's an unreal place for the North Shore. We are lucky this place exists. When I talk to other people who equally enjoyed it and listen to what they had, I think to myself that I would have never had that combination.

Friend went last weekend and had the softshell crawfish and said they were awesome. Sounds like they have some great ice creams too.

I think you can't go wrong with anything, unless you are ordering it because someone else liked it. They describe the dishes really well, that's what I mean. IDK.

ETA: The Tarte, PISSALADIÈRE, is what I had last time for an App and really enjoyed it.

Sick (meaning wicked good) MENU

I can understand it for a normal type of place, like Parrains or something.

This is a critical cuisine joint that specializes in unique preparations and 'homegrown' ingredients.

With all the crazy stuff on that menu, escargot (though my wife ordered it - and loved it) and charbroiled oysters are far from taking a risk. Of course the damn escargot are good. That's why I edited to say the Tarte is worth a shot, if you at all are even thinking about it. I would take a chance at a place like this, order something in the hopes you are going to be blown away.

I don't understand how someone could be blown away by escargot or charbroiled oysters, although they are obviously very good things to eat.

I didn't mean to single you out, it's just something I see on here regularly and don't understand. I'm apologize for acting the arse.
