Happy 1st Anniversary Dominique’s Kitchen! Special Escargots Menu to Celebrate!

Happy 1st Anniversary Dominique’s Kitchen! Special Escargots Menu to Celebrate From 10/18-10/21!

By Erin

Earlier this year I was introduced to this wonderful place called Dominique’s Kitchen. You can see more about my first experience at Dominique’s by clicking here. This week I was invited out to sample their special anniversary menu.
Now they are celebrating their 1 year anniversary here in the South Bay, in Redondo Beach, CA. To celebrate this most grand occasion they are offering a very special menu from 10/18-21 where three to four different escargot items will be on special from the list below each day. At Dominique’s making good food is an everyday occasion.
All of the items on this special menu were very tasty I must say! I could not pick a favorite as they were all so different, and had different flavors and textures to love about them! If you have ever had the chance to try escargots before, this is definitely your place to try them out at as they are delicious! I was as skeptical about trying them as the next person may be who has never had them before, but boy am I glad I have an open mind when it comes to trying out new foods. I really enjoy having escargots now! =)
I hope you get the chance if you are in Southern California to come and try out some of these special items, or that you will come and try what they have to offer the next time you are in the South Bay!

Haute Cuisine with Dominique’s Kitchen!

Haute Cuisine  with Dominique’s Kitchen!

Are you ready to go on an adventure to Paris that will delight your taste buds?  Do you have your passport ready to go? Well, if you don’t (at least if you are in the US)  you are in luck! Dominique’s Kitchen in Redondo Beach, CA is here!! Opening in October of 2012, this is an absolute jewel of a restaurant tucked in on the famous Pacific Coast Highway just minutes from the ocean & pier. Walking in, you truly feel transformed as if you are leaving the L.A. area and entering another country. Dominique’s is an intimate bistro, the tables are close & cozy to one another & the warm family atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Be ready to make some new friends when you visit Dominique’s! I have been to Paris, France before, so walking into this blissful place brought back many happy memories. I felt like I really was back in Paris.

The restaurant space is small enough to enjoy an intimate dinner, yet large enough to not feel claustrophobic. There is patio seating for the warmer summer days and nights outside as well as an indoor type patio that is covered with heaters should it get too cold.

DominiquesKitchenWhen the opportunity arose to review Dominique’s I jumped at the chance to try out this new Euro-French restaurant. A French restaurant, here, nearby? I didn’t have to fly to Paris for some good French food? Yes, Please! I have been craving a trip back to France, so this was a wonderful  substitute. Now, anytime I’m missing Paris, I just need to hop in the car and my new-found Paris vacation is just a hop, skip, and jump away at Dominique’s in Redondo Beach! I brought my fellow blogging buddy and dear friend Kirsten over at SoCal Kids Outdoor Adventures with me as I knew she could use a vacation just as much as I did and she loves to be adventurous and try out new things! 😉
