"CUISINE:
Patou’s cuisine stays true to its coastal French roots while incorporating bright and adventuresome flavors of neighboring Mediterranean and North African regions."
Patrice Rames (owner/chef) is a charismatic, generous and talented host and his warm welcome was followed with an incredible meal and wine tasting event. He and a representative from his wine supplier introduced the meal and the wines that would accompany each course. The food was superb, the service was flawless and Patrice's own sincere enjoyment of the event made the night all the more fun. As a result of his obvious enthusiasm towards our group, Patrice offered us each a generous toast with champagne from his own private stock. This event was simply a great elegant dining experience.
