"If you can get past the high likelihood of overhearing someone at a neighboring table unironically call an acquaintance a "Harvard Man," this cozy French bistro in Darien is worth going out of your way for. Pretty much everything from the seasonal French menu is made in house, from the bread to the ice cream. The dishes change quarterly, but the pillowy, light-as-air gnocchi are always around, and they should definitely be on your table. Other hits include the sea bass in beurre blanc, the crunchy, bright green salad bursting with fresh herbs, and the warmly spiced duck leg confit. And don’t skip dessert—the custardy chocolate chip bread pudding topped with homemade ice cream is one of our favorite sweets in the whole state. photo credit: Sam Schwab" - Chloe Zale
