Where: Mistral Bistro, in Boston's South End
When: Saturday night, for Matt's birthday
What we ate:
tuna tartare
salmon tartare on a bed of avocado with mache,
grilled sirloin with mashed potatoes and chanterelles (Matt)
roasted striped bass with a salad of heirloom tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and cousous (me)
home-made mint chocolate chip ice cream
The Consensus: excellent special-occasion restaurant, we give it a rating of four wine bottles. Mistral is a foodie's restaurant, one of those places where everything on the menu looks delicious...even things you may not normally eat. All of the food was incredibly fresh, and there was a wide variety on the menu. The restaurant is bright and casual, with a French rustic atmosphere. For awhile, we avoided eating here because I thought it might be one of those snooty, trendy places, but that's not the case at all. If you want to treat yourself to a nice meal and eat well, definitely give Mistral a try!
