MORE DINNER PICS AT Canelé
November 1, 2007
This was a last minute plan. my cousin from new york, kathy called halloween night. she was in town to take test for medical school. she is leaving this saturday. she wanted to see my mum and i before she flies back to new york. we took her to Canelé.
we had good company, good laughs, and good food. i have not seen kathy for 2 years. it was great to catch up. we sat in the community table, it sat 8 people.
later in the evening. a party of 4 sat in our table. they were visiting from michigan. they ordered the same "beginnings" we had.

This was the old location of osteria nonni. they have been in business for 17 years. the owner of osteria nonni retired in 2006. however, canele preserved his famous spaghetti aglio olio on the menu. i would try to ask if them can make the famous lemon chicken as well.
I went here with my mum and my cousin from new york, kathy. this is located in atwater village. we sat in community table near the window.
we started with our "beginnings". i had a winter squash and apple soup. that was a refreshing soup. it was warm.
my mum had coops omelette with arugula. that was the most lightest omelette i had very had with no cheese french style.
kathy had the special of the day which is spanish goat cheese, quince jam and spanish serrano ham with bread. that was a great combo.
we ordered our "middle". i ordered the pork chop with grilled onions, squash and apples. this was well cooked. however, the portion was small.
my mum ordered branzino with parsely, green garlic, lemon and cous cous. this fish was served whole, head and tail and all. this was yummy.
kathy had the pan seared red snapper with italian peppers, heirloom tomatoes, and cracked olives. i am not big on red snapper but this was exeptional. it was cooked perfectly.
we finished it off with dessert. we all shared a fourless chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream and orange pound cake with creme frasiche. of course it was yummy and mouth watering.
as we were leaving the restaurant. we were given "Canelé" is a small French pastry with a soft and tender custard center and a dark, thick caramelized crust.
the service was excellent. it was a great dining experience. i recommend it. i would like to come back on tuesday's, it is when they do "friends cook at can Canelé". they have a prefixed meal. the price depends on the chef. there are no reservations. it is a 30 seat restaurant.
THE PICS BELOW ARE WHAT I ORDERED. MORE PICS OF THE DISHES ARE ON THE LA BLOG. TOO MUCH YUMMINESS. ENJOY :)
