Life is about thinking positive. When bad things happens you need to take a breath and think positive. Otherwise they will continue like a chain. The same thing goes with the opposite though. When good things happens, you bet your ass it will go on. That is what happened when we visited Eric Frechon’s Lazare. It was a winning two days in a row. 

Situated in Gare Saint-Lazare, spacious and elegant atmosphere will be noticed rapidly. The decoration is not reflected by luxury but coolness. The walls are fancied up with plates and written notes. The ceil is so high that you would feel yourself in a loft. And the lighting brings you the best illumination. 

Since we wanted the taste all the menu at once, we thought sharing would be a better idea. “Calamari sauteed with garlic and Espelette pepper”, “Salad of green beans, artichokes in hazelnut oil”, “Farmed mussels in cream” and “Coquilles St. Jacques fried salad with truffle juice”.

Looking good? You damn right. 

For the desert-we picked “Millefeuille Gavottes Vanilla“, “Roasted Figs with Almond Cream“ and “Sorbet of the Season“. Since the food was already amazing, I had high expectations from the Millefeuille especially. Regardlessly, it was the one that I picked up. Well, it is a right to make wrong decisions sometimes. It wasn't bad at all but comparing with the Fig and the Sorbet I saw that I had made the wrong choice. Fig-I mean if you are a Fig guy-that could be the best desert ever done for you.

Lazare was one of the best ones yet-Calamari and Mussels are a must!
