 Remember the old adage "One if by land, two if by sea?" Well, add three if by train and you are on your way to L'Escale, the tres Provençal restaurant located in Greenwich's waterfront Delamar hotel. Regardless of how you arrive just get there and you'll immediately be transported to the pseudo-shores of Southern France, ensconced in a setting that actually originated across the ocean and was meticulously reassembled stateside. Obviously restaurateurs Rick Wahlstedt and Jean Denoyer, creators of Manhattan's Le Colonial, knew what they were doing in putting together L'Escale, which literally means stopover. Think bright red chairs adorning the terrace seating and a dining room bathed in white, right down to the faux antique fireplace. Choose the beignets de fruits de mer, seafood beignets, tomato confit and fried tarragon to start. Continue with pan-seared sea bass, sunchoke ragoût and oven-dried tomatoes or the magret de canard, a roasted duck breast and crispy duck leg confit served with winter fruit chutney. Certainly not your typical French cuisine, but then again, you're paying dearly for the experience, and it's a lot cheaper than a plane ticket to Nice. Having said that, splurge and stay over at the Delamar after a romantic evening.
