So we're at this place in Saint-Emilion near Bordeaux--La Réserve du Presbytère. It's…read moreMichelin-recommended (not starred, but hey, they try... or do they?).
Let's just say the service was... creatively chaotic. Clearing plates felt like a weird game of Jenga--someone's always taking something away at the wrong time .
But the real kicker?
A friend had her wedding there. And instead of owning their poor timing and organization, they actually told us--a group of Asians--that we "don't know how to eat Michelin" or "understand French dining" because we didn't finish our food.
Oh honey, no.
We didn't finish because:
· The salmon tuna tartare was basically grocery-store smoked salmon playing dress-up.
· The steak was tougher than my grandpa's cowboy boots--shredded like confetti... in my teeth.
· And the soufflé? Tasted like someone mistook the rosemary branch for the whole plant.
They tried to come for our manners... while serving disrespect and dried-out beef. Sorry, not sorry--we know bad food when we taste it.
The wine was good (it's Bordeaux, so even they can't mess that up), and the location is cute... but if you want to avoid a side of prejudice with your overcooked steak... maybe skip this one.
Yours truly,
Still hungry (and still offended)
