Wifey treated me to dinner at Mimolette for my birthday. As predicted, the place does look very different by night ~ more sensual and mysterious from the lighting and lack of back glare from the city lights which drown the rest of the island.
We shared a starter of Pan-fried Foie-gras, on a bed of caramelised banana and fruit cake(!), with apple and balsamic reduction. Fruit cake + Foie gras is an interesting combination, to say the least, but we thought the sauce carried the fusion rather well.
E-Lynn had a duck confit, while I had the most tender coin of loin, ever! It was moist, juicy and yet so tender… yum!
For dessert, we shared a molten chocolate cake, very skillfully done, as well as a Angel Food cake that was drowning in cream and fruits.
We took a look at the attached lounge and wine bar; and found it to be quite well decorated and snazzy ~ perhaps we’ll drop by with some friends another time for drinks.
Recommended, especially for a romantic night out.
