a last minute dinner get-together was how my recent visit to montrachet came about. i have dined at montrachet before & loved it...on this recent occasion my boss suggested we head to montrachet on a spur of the moment type of thing...so a table was reserved via mobile phone & there we were on a wednesday night @ 8:30pm sipping champagne & deciding what to order from montrachet's new autumn menu....the restaurant was very busy & our waiter, max canche, was quick to attend to us & continued looking after us for our entire sitting. max has been with montrachet since they opened 6 1/2 yrs ago.
several dishes were ordered around the table including...
- fricassee de champignons
- carpaccio de boeuf,
- saumon fumé farci aux crabe (manuka smoked salmon & fresh crab terrine served w tomato/ avocado salsa
- fruits de mer aux cheveux d’ange (pan fried fresh green prawns & scallops w olive oil, tomato, garlic, fresh herbs & cognac served on angel hair pasta
- salade verte
- escallope de veau savoyarde (seared escallope of veal grilled w smoked ham, tomato & raclette cheese),
- bouillabaisse
- and finally...some fromage! morbier, bûche d’affinois, delice de fromi
montrachet is an absolute institution in brisbane. their food is superb! after my 3rd champagne i imagined we were sitting in paris @ a bustling bistro about to walk the french streets...

Wow!
My mouth is watering!
Thank you for reminding me of this "Brisbane icon of gastronomy"!
Must go again! Yummy!!
last time I went to Montrachet, I had fabulous service but my dinner wasn't as fab. Am hoping to go back soon, maybe to try out the Autumn menu so that this can be rectified.
It all looks so amazing...how did you manage a last minute dinner though?! You must tell me about that last minute baby sitter! K
hi k!!! lastminute babysitter.com just joking x

excellent issues altogether, you simply received a new reader.
What might you suggest in regards to your put up that you made
