Auberge Bressane

i’ve made it a routine of dining here whenever i visit - it’s one of my favorite nice-meal-out restaurants in the city. to start, excellent wine list with some occasional well-priced gems. the decor is super charming, and the energy is just so happy and warm. as for the food, it can be excellent, but you have to know what to order. definitely order the soufflés - as many as you can fathom (the special when we went recent of crab soufflée with lobster bisque was exceptional, the chocolate one for dessert is my favorite, but the grand marnier is also fantastic, but if they have the chestnut one in season please do try that too). steak frites is a solid choice, and then we usually like to stick to the specials - they are known for their game meats / fowl.
