While Mon Ami Gabi is known for their classic French cuisine and flavorful dishes, what sets them apart is their ever-evolving menu featuring new takes on traditional dishes.
And with winter upon us, Mon Ami Gabi has recently introduced their new winter menu utilizing the best ingredients of the season. With a chill in the air it is only natural that we seek heartwarming and comforting foods- which is why Mon Ami Gabi is serving up hearty, “stick to your ribs” dishes that will leave you nothing short of satisfied.
For those that enjoy starting a meal with a warm cup of soup, Mon Ami’s Four Mushroom Soup is the perfect choice. Looking for something a tad lighter? The Endive and Bosc Pear Salad, complete with Maytag blue cheese, honey roasted bosc pears and house vinaigrette is both satisfying and delicious.
Indulge in items such as Roast Chicken and Frites, and classic Beef Bourguignon—served table side with paparadelle noodles.
In addition to the fantastic items featured on the menu every night, Mon Ami Gabi is also serving up some very special Plats du Jour. Start your week off right and enjoy classic Coq Au Vin on Monday nights; on Wednesdays, guests can enjoy savory Burgundy Short Ribs served with pommes puree and sautéed shallots and mushrooms; and Sundays feature delectable Beef Wellington—baked to perfection in flaky puff pastry, topped with bordelaise sauce and served alongside sautéed spinach.
Go here for the full “Plats du Jour” menu.
Although these dishes may be filling, be sure to save room for dessert as Mon Ami Gabi is offering several new sweet treats to end your meal. Apple Tarte Tatin, Pear and Cranberry Crumble and Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake await you!
And for les enfants? Mon Ami Gabi is offering an all new “Little Frites” menu featuring kid-friendly options such as Pasta with Tomato Sauce, French Bread Pizza and Chicken Fingers and Frites—all served with a side if sliced apples and green beans.
Bon appetite tout le monde!
