I can say that it has soared to the very top of my "faves" list. The Croque Madame was insanely delicious, and the duck-fat fried fries? wow. just wow.

I remember them being nice and potato-ey. I hate to burst any bubble... but I've heard that he uses frozen fries at Bouchon! http://nymag.com/daily/food/2007/01/in_his_cookbook_bouchon_thomas.html There's a recipe for fries w/ fresh russet potatoes in the Bouchon cookbook, but it looks suspiciously low on details.... I'm cool with frozen, though -- if they're chosen for their flavor/texture and they're cooked well, then why not. Jessica - I wish I could remember more about the fries….

My husband ordered the steak frites when we were there, and I must say Keller has taken the french fry to another level. I've never had fries that delicious before. How did you feel about them? And your croque madame looks beautiful, by the way. That photo is making me hungry. I’d love to hear your take on the french fries!

I agree about the bakery -- I've always been happy with what I've gotten there, and even though it's a little pricy for a bakery, its food is still a bargain compared to other food in the valley. One of these days, I want to have a simple picnic with one of their sandwiches and some pastries.
