Brasserie by Niche

This is a newer restaurant which I read about in Sky Mall if you can believe it! I found it relatively easily about 2 blocks from the Metrolink station. I liked the atmosphere. Think country French comfort food.

I ordered the goat cheese tart which was like a wedge of a quiche. As with anything goat cheese I gobbled it right up and it was delicious. It had a nice bit of shaved fennel which went nicely with it. Nobody really needs to do much to goat cheese in order for me to eat it though.

Next was the frisee salad with bacon lardons, poached egg and bacon vinaigrette. Very good, I love a good frisee salad. Egg and bacon just make it better.

Next I had the Boeuf Bourguignon which was plentiful with mushroom, onion, bacon and potato puree. This friends, was a revelation of beef. Incredibly tender, flaked with a fork beef with a generous helping of potatoes and the most thick, delicious sauce. Impossible not to finish!

I loved Brasserie by Niche, loved the feel and the food. The service was also prompt and friendly.
