La Veranda

La Veranda Review

Aphrodisiac menus and seasonal specials are but two of the reasons to consider this elegant dining room and lounge near the Jewish Quarter. A third is Radek David, a culinary juggernaut with an eye for unusual flavor combinations, sending out dishes like baked quail with pea pods, octopus carpaccio, duck foie gras with pickled rhubarb, and mozzarella baked with eggplant and confited cherry tomatoes. Despite the achievements and the acclaim, La Veranda remains somewhat overlooked, making a visit to this stylish, softly lighted room feel like you've been let in on a wonderful secret.
