We had a 2:00pm reservation on a Sunday & assumed we could order off the dinner menu. However, only the breakfast & lunch menu was available which was disappointing. There were few lunch choices but we decided on the duck confit salad & the steak w/mushroom gravy. My husband & I shared both meals. The steak was good but our favorite was the duck confit salad! The dressing was creamy with a hint of raspberry & it was very light. We really enjoyed it. Make a reservation if you go here. We were seated out on the deck area with a view of the river.

Nous sommes déçus car nous allions fêter notre anniversaire avec un plat de foie gras, qui malheureusement n'est plus au menu. Les cornichons que nous adorons ne sont plus offerts non plus. Mon conjoint a reçu une soupe à l'oignon gratiné tiède & très salée, que nous avons dû retourner. Le foie de veau, toutefois, est très tendre & délicieux. La guedille au homard & crevettes était bonne. Mon entrée de camembert était très bonne. Cela faisait un bout de temps que nous n'étions pas allés au Café du monde & sommes ressortis déçus malheureusement.

L'oeuf poché était trop cuit, la mousseline aux fruits excellente, le jambon effiloché très bon. L'ensemble du repas était plutôt tiède.
