Christine and I married on 12-12-12 @ 12, decided to celebrate our anniversary at Mon Amie Maxi.
Upon entering the ultra elegant dining room, we were whisked away into a vortex of convivial energy that Parisian bon vivants would truly cherish.
Blessed by affable maitre d' Cyril with a very romantically ensconced table, Lissy our server was extremely kind and knowledgeable.
Christine's foie gras terrine was exquisitely delicious, and my onion soup and roquefort iceberg lettuce wedge were respectively richly robust and pungently snappy.
Christine's lobster ragout was an epicurean delight, and the generous cut of lava-stoned grilled ribeye was so tender, delicious and juicy ~ that I ordered 2!
Sharing Spirit with world-class Sommelier Anne Catrin Hake that we had the pleasure of meeting at the venerable Zenzakan 12 years before, her genuine heartfelt kindness was the Grand Finale for our 13th anniversary.
Anne intimated that the restaurant will open a Southern exposure terrace next Spring for under parasol dining in the afternoons, and al fresco feasting beneath the stars.
If Mon Amie Maxi could be airlifted to New York 's 5th Avenue, it would be an instant hit due to its culinary excellence, elegant French brasserie ambiance and impeccable service.
Christine and I strongly recommend Mon Amie Maxi for ALL occasions, even just celebrating the wondrous gift of life itself.
