A Festive Noël
French recipes lend Gallic charm to a simple yet elegant menu boasting colors and flavors of the holiday season. Taste our comforting main choices, including an entrée of Poulet au Vinaigre, a bistro dish of tender braised chicken with vinegar sauce, and culminate the experience with the delicacy of an iconic Bûche de Noël, or Yule Log. Ours features a spiced chocolate sponge cake brushed generously with cranberry simple syrup and wrapped into a spiral with a decadent filling of vanilla bean buttercream, topped with chocolate shards and buttercream to create a bark-like appearance.
