There is a restaurant off the beaten path that brings you right to the heart of fancy French food on a dime. You're not going to want to miss this little treasure of a place.
The owners have been educated at some of the finest restaurants and have run a couple amazing places on their own. This isn't their first rodeo, and this French chocolate layer cake with your choice of wine is a clear indication, right?
Hospitality PLUS good food is all the rage here. Step inside and pick out a favorite food to go then grab a glass of wine with a friend before heading out again.
Every French restaurant needs its own bicycle out front, right? They know how to draw us in and steal our hearts. Worth every mile off your original route, make your way here - or ride your bike. Whatever floats your boat.
They sell lunch in boxes and fill them with yummy things. This lunch box comes with choice of sandwich, pasta or potato salad, tart, and wedge of brie cheese. Have I died and gone to heaven?
Onion tarts are a thing here, too. I mean seriously, what are you waiting for? I remember eating at these folks' other restaurant years ago and was in love. This is just another opportunity for us all!
If you head up this way on Highway 50, keep driving east and stop by Apple Hill. Pick a few apples or pumpkins and make your kids love you even more this fall!
