This is the menu with price. Actually, all menus were printed without price, the prices were written in later. |
|
|
Bisque Cafe Anglais -- Lobster Soup |
|
|
Homard 'La Belle Aisse' -- Cold Lobster Salad |
|
|
Our waiter was very surprised and very impressed by my choice of this dish. Yes, this is the most expensive dish on the menu. And, yes, this dish made our waiter had a very happy happy night. So, how much was the Homard 'La Belle Aisse' ? ................. It was 130€ !! How did it taste? Well.... The lobster meat was tender and the seasoning was good. It was a very delicious dish. But would I pay Euro 130 for this dish again? No, I don't think so. Having this dish with this price, once in a life time is enough! |

|
Quenelles De Brochet A. Terrail -- Pike Dumpling. Pike is a type of freshwater fish that can be found mostly in the Northern climates. Its meat is pretty dense. |
|
|
Filet de Boefuf Nortre Dame -- Filet of Ox. The meat was tender and I especially liked the sauce. |
|
|
First course of the caneton - duck cooked in blood. Caneton Tour D'Argent -- Pressed Duckling is the signature dish in La Tour D'Argent. All Caneton dishes are for 2 persons. H and AJ had the Caneton Tour D'Argent, I tried a little piece and didn't like it. |

|
From our table, we had the view of the Seine. Our happy waiter took this picture for us. Don't know why AJ closed his eyes, maybe he'd already knew that this was going to be a long long dinner. |

Second course of the caneton - duck leg with cream sauce |
|
|
This salad side dish came with the 2nd course of the Caneton Tour D'Argent. |
|
|
A glass duck on top of the dessert menus. I loved the presentation. Again, the owner won't let his guests to forget La Tour D'Argent.....It's all about duck! |
|
|
Souffle Princesse Elisabeth-Tokaji AJ and I shared this tasty dessert. Our happy waiter was ready to serve the souffle. |
