I’ve got a great new restaurant that’s opened in Rock Rose in the Domain in Northwest Austin for you to try this week-end. I can personally vouch for their service and quality of food! While celebrating my birthday month in July, I was treated by friends for a wonderful celebration! Whether a special occasion or just meeting friends and family for some excellent food make sure to include Toulouse Cafe on your must to do list!
TOULOUSE CAFÉ AND BAR http://www.toulousecafeandbar.com/
Toulouse Café and Bar will make you think of a Parisian Café where you might expect to bump into friends; or start having conversations with the table next to yours. Like all fine bistros, the menu is imaginative and seasonal and gives it diners exactly what they want: cozy tables that open to the street and delicious French food. There are mouth watering specials, made from scratch desserts and a wide-ranging wine list.
Executive chef, Yoann Lardeux has more than 20 years of experience and it shows. He is a French born and trained chef who grew up around the food and service industry. You will enjoy the tastes of France in this sophisticated atmosphere. A sampling of his menu starts with these possible choices from the appetizer list: Oysters Rockefeller – 6 baked oysters with spinach, pernod, bacon, cream and parmesan cheese. You might also like the Salmon Rillettes – poached and smoked salmon spread with a crispy baguette or the Ahi Tuna Tower with sliced cucumber, crushed avocado, pineapples, scallions with a sesame seed & ginger dressing. On the entrée menu there’s Boeuf Bourguignon – braised short ribs, pork belly, mushrooms, onions, carrots and butter noodles. Also, Trout Almondine with almond beurre noisette, jardinière and pomme nature.
Among your choices for dessert there’s Strawberry Napoléon-homemade puff pastry with crème diplomate and strawberries. Another choice would be Fondant Au Chocolat – molten dark chocolate cake with Armagnac and a white chocolate sauce. And, as they say at Toulouse: “Dine with us and be transported to Paris, if only for a moment.”
