Herbsaint Restaurant Review: Even though Donald Link’s Cajun-inspired Cochon has garnered greater attention outside New Orleans, the chef made his name and still adds to the ranks of his local following at his original operation, Herbsaint. The casually elegant setting is as appropriate for business lunches as it is for engagement dinners. The décor sets the scene for a cuisine informed by consistent freshness, an admirable restraint and lots of creativity. Many of Link's dishes echo the grand traditions of New Orleans, while others spring almost totally from the kitchen's imagination. Diners may choose between small plates, such as beef short ribs or house-made gnocchi with pancetta, or entrée size plates such as curried lamb with egg noodles or Muscovy duck leg confit. The daily charcuterie selection is made in-house, and the shrimp-tomato bisque gains a new vitality with a dash of the restaurant's namesake liqueur. At dessert time, a new classic emerges: chocolate beignets, made even more sinful by the molten dark chocolate oozing from within. Cocktails, prepared by meticulous bartenders, are as thoughtful and inspired as the wine selection. Herbsaint is a true find in a crowded restaurant town. |
