Bistro Central Parc

560 Central Ave
San Francisco, CA 94117

Occasion: In celebration of the BFF finishing her boards.  She has completed another milestone in her life. 06.20.12

Sweet breads with mushrooms
The waiter convinced us to get this.  It was really really good, but Jenny said she's had better when she was in Europe.  I loved the combination of the mushroom and the sweet breads. I would definitely recommend getting this.

Braised beef cheeks, red beet puree
goat cheese, mushrooms, potato fondant
This came in a bigger portion than we had expected,  The meat was super tender and super soft with great flavors.  It was also very rich in flavor and very filling.  I'm not usually a fan of beets, but the red beet puree was quite delicious.  Smooth and silky with a hint of sweetness. Amazing.
Filet mignon with foie gras
green peppercorn sauce, Potato gratin
It was a special on the menu.  We just had to get our fix of foie gras since we were nearing the ban.  Definitely not my favorite dish of the night, but happy to have gotten some foie gras in our system.
Another item on the special's menu
Don't exactly remember what it was, but it was a fish dish.  Light, flavorful and perfect with everything else, since everything else we ordered were very rich and heavy.  I loved the puree that complemented the fish.
Chocolate souffle 
So beautifully prepared and tasty.  Lately, chocolate souffle desserts have been growing on me.  If made right the light fluffy cake with the warm oozing chocolate filling= perfection.  I've always got room in my stomach for good desserts.
