Cafe B Restaurant Review: Cafe B, Ralph Brennan's charmingly intimate and airy dining spot, offers what Brennan likes to call "elevated neighborhood cuisine.” How does that play out? Consider chef Chris Montero's clever take on a traditional chicken potpie. Not your grandmother's potpie, this one has Louisiana yams, bacon and a creamy sage sauce. Montero, who helmed the kitchen at Brennan's now-shuttered Bacco, offers an imaginative menu with such offerings as Gulf shrimp and lobster ravioli, a longtime favorite at Bacco. He also wisely includes such local favorites as grilled redfish, barbecued shrimp, and a Creole crab dip appetizer destined to send you over the moon. Brennan's contemporary build out and smart use of oversize windows makes this a good place to enjoy wine and conversation while your taste buds go into overdrive. The wine list offers about 30 choices by the glass, with an international spread covering a wide range of price categories. Organized by price as well as by white, pink and red, it covers everything from bubbles to dessert wines with some depth, and there's a small reserve list. The burgundy chocolate cake with peanut butter anglaise will bring you back to Cafe B over and over again. |
