Michel Portos, our former 2012 Chef of the Year, serves as a consultant; two young female chefs are at the helm; the wine cellar features about 200 selections, all available by the glass (thanks to Coravin), everything is looking up for Imad and Carole Kanaan, the founders of Didon. In this charming dining room (with a small mezzanine) offering basic comforts, you’ll find yourself irresistibly drawn to the succulent, Mediterranean-inspired cuisine: a beautiful appetizer featuring oyster mushrooms—grilled, as a duxelles, and pickled— vin jaune, soy sauce, and morel sauce; a generous grilled Angus entrecôte with cauliflower prepared two ways and a rich meat jus; a raspberry tartlet; a frozen parfait made with wild berry tea, almond praline, and an apple-raspberry veil. Good lunch special.
