Plouf Plouf Gastronomie

Charming outdoor bistro. Reminded me of Paris bistro cooking. We had the pate de campagne, onion soup, canard de confit, coquille st jacques, and creme brulee. Everything was very good. The onion soup was lighter than some, in that it did not use a beef based broth, though the spicing was perfect. The canard was crispy with green peppercorn sauce over frites. Yum. The creme brulee was close with the cold/warm contrast of the carmelized top vs. the custard, but the custard was a bit overdone. Still, it was delicious. Very surprising. BYOB.

As a French person, I was delighted to find a restaurant that had canard confit and magret on the menu. The first time we ordered from Plouf Plouf at the beginning of the season, we were very happy: The confit and magret came on a bed of a delicious puree with a side of ratatouille and the portions were generous. Yesterday we ordered the magret again, and were sorely disappointed. We didn't have the whole magret, just 6 tiny slices of it, half of which was the fat, and there was no puree, no ratatouille, just the potatoes. The sauce was as good as ever, but the portion was very meager and the magret not of good quality. It wasn't worth the $30+ that I paid for it. That's my last time ordering from Plouf Plouf.
