Chef/owner Thomas Keller continues his commitment to local, fresh, seasonal foods. At Bouchon, in quaint Yountville, the focus is on the art of casual Parisian bistro, home cooking. The decor, in bistro fashion, is simple and yet elegantly modern. The dinning room is dimly lit, complementing the vibrant burgundy color-palate of the décor. The atmosphere is warm, inviting and always lively. The staff works in unison, leaving no glass empty. Bouchon, is where locals, and tourists crowd on weekends, flock for a good time and meal - always filled with laughter and joy. The zinc bar is ever so crowded with patrons waiting to be seated and those seeking for a cocktail. The food and plating have no frills or fuss, instead the concentration is on the meal. Presentation accentuates technique. In other words, the focus is how precision in technique brings to life ordinary food, like chicken in the Poulet Rôti. The roasted chicken is lightly seasoned and basted in its own juice -after it is roasted, adding moisture to the already tenderized skin. The chicken skin, a sun-kissed golden brown, is crispy and flavorful. The kitchen excels on comfort foods like French onion soup, quiches and French fries. The Pommes Frites are perfectly fried, while the interior of the French fry remains moist. The magic here is the ability to turn everyday ingredients into refined meals through the attention to deal. Profiteroles are the best way to end your meal: golden-flaky puff pastry is filled with homemade vanilla ice cream drowning in chocolate sauce – served table-side. Reservations are required, especially on weekends when the entire Napa Valley is overwhelmed with tourists. In 2007, the inaugural year of the Michelin Guide San Francisco, Bay Area & Wine Country, Bouchon was awarded a Michelin Star.
