We had time to converse with Liza and Dominique. Robert, our server who has been there for 3 years took very good care of us. Sandi and I were starving. We thought we should venture and order something we haven't ordered in a long time. That left out some of our favorites; cheese fondue, roasted chicken, fillet of sole, lamb chops. We started with the Caramelized French Onion Soup. We had both forgotten how good this was with the Gruyere cheese on top. That together with the French bread hit the spot on this cold and windy day.
We decided to split an order of the Mac and Cheese and a Ribeye Steak with the ever so delicious garlic truffle fries. This usually comes with fingerling potatoes but we opted for the fries. The steak was big enough for the two of us. It was cooked to perfection and the yummy brandy and green peppercorn sauce was perfect with the fries when I alternated it with the mayonnaise.
The Mac and Cheese was also delicious but this was not wise to order since we had so much fries. We ended up just having a few bites and taking it home. The good news is tonight, we will be enjoying the mac and cheese!
We were both stuffed and was not going to order dessert but Dominique sent us each a White Chocolate Mousse with a macaron on top. I think that just because he has lost so much weight, he takes pleasure in seeing us get fat! The mousse was very light but probably heavy in calories.
Thank you again, Dominique and Liza. Always nice to see you both. Though this was our first time back in the year 2016, I know this is just the beginning of many more dinners to come.
Dominique's Kitchen is located at 522 S. Pacific Coast Highway in Redondo Beach, California.
