Cafe Boulud Restaurant Review

: An established clientele of regulars---some that stop in twice in one day---frequents this darling upscale café from Daniel Boulud. Chef Gavin Kaysen brings a dynamic presence to the kitchen, where he deftly executes creative, sophisticated cuisine based on a French and American foundation. Organized in four sections, the tour de force menu features "La Tradition" (classic French dishes), "La Saison" (seasonal plates), "Le Potager" (inspirations from the farmers' markets) and "Le Voyage" (specialties from around the world). Maine peekytoe crab may be paired with green apple gelée, celery root rémoulade and whole grain mustard. Entrées include coconut poached lobster, bok choy, rice cake and honshimeji mushrooms as well as bacon-wrapped chicken breast, fall squash cabbage and chestnut gnocchi. End your meal with the molten chocolate cake with coffee ice cream. Sommelier Emanuel Moosbrugger oversees the wine list, which includes selections for price-conscious diners, while inventive cocktails are offered in the adjacent Bar Pleiades, which is also managed by Boulud.
