nspired by the Europeans, Bistronomie is a progressive form of dining derived from the mashing together of ‘bistro’ and ‘gastronomy’. Call it five-star cuisine sans the white tablecloths and pretense of a stereotypical high end restaurant. The menu takes its cues from across the globe. Small plates choices include French Onion Soup Gratinee, pork meatballs with lemongrass, grilled salmon skewers and classic Steak Frites share the stage with market fresh fish, vibrant salads and seasonal inspirations. An intimate dining room, eclectic artwork, and creative cocktails add to the experience.
