Continual of my Restaurant Week recap. Again, a lot of the restaurants have extended the Restaurant Week in order to help the Houston Food Bank after the hurricane impacted the city. Please take a moment to check out the restaurants that are participating and go out and eat!
This time we went to Brasserie du Parc.
For the first course, I got the Oeufs Mimosa. That's the fancy way of saying deviled eggs with a small salad. The eggs didn't have paprika, in case you're wondering. Instead, they have bacon bits, the real thing. How can it be bad?
For main course, I got the Boeuf Bourgingnon. It has a bed of pasta, with the stew on top. It has a decent size brisket with veggie. The brisket is super soft, you pull on it and it falls apart. Super soft, super tender, super perfect for a cold winter day.
For dessert, I got the Pot au Chocolat, it came with a little mini muffin, pot au chocolat (chocolate custard) with a scoop of ice cream with these fancy crispers. It went very well with a coffee, highly recommend it to any chocoholic.
I love the service, the staff, and the whole dining experience. Was it the best I've ever had? No, but for a sizable group like ours, they were super attentive, made sure everyone get what we ordered, checks were separated properly. Those little things are very much appreciated for a dinning experience.
I will say this: if you made a reservation, prepare extra time to fight the downtown traffic or find parking on the street. I chose to valet, which is not complementary, so bring cash.
