It is always great to catch up with old friends over a nice meal, especially, when the venue is a quaint and as cozy as Petits Plats at the Woodley Park, DC. The decor is inviting, the manager is welcoming, and the service is impeccable. Present were Rebecca Burka, David Burka, Alinda Iman and Karim Iman.
We started of with a glass of sparkling wine and (Supions Provençale) Sautéed Calamari with Garlic, Pine Nuts, Tomato and Basil
and an assortment of canapé charcuterie.
and (Rillettes et Pâté du Chef) Country Pâté, Greens And Cornichons
The wine list was extensive, we ordered a bottle of 2005 Chateau Larose‐Trintaudon, from Haut-Medoc a Bordeaux region which is composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. This wine is Cru Bourgeois which for a good vintage like the 2005 can be aged up to 5 to 6 years. So, this wine was at its peak.
Main Course-
Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Potato Macaire, Green Peppercorn Sauce (Filet de Bœuf GrillÉ, Pommes de Terre Macaire, Sauce au Poivre Vert) Nice presentation, the plate arrived at the right temperature, the sauce was full of flavors.
Leg of Duck Moulard Confit, Sautéed Potatoes Persillade and Salad
Confit de Canard, Pommes de Terre Sautees et Salade- Alinda loved this dish as the duck was cooked to perfection.
Braised Veal Cheeks (Osso Bucco Style) with Creamy Potato Gnocchi
Joues de Veau BraisÉes (Osso Bucco Style) et Gnocchi- Tender veal cheeks in a fabulous sauce. Loved it!
Sautéed Bronzini Fillet with Fingerling Potatoes in Aioli, Baby Greens, Extra Virgin Oil Emulsion with Espelette Pepper
Filet de Bronzini, Salade de Pommes de Terre A L’Aïoli, Emulsion d’Huile Extra Vierge au Piment d’Espelette
Cheese Plate Assortment (Petit Basque, Brie, Roquefort Chèvre)- All great favorites served with house bread.
Great overall experience. Will definitely go back again.
