Dinner Coup...



Celebrating a special occasion? A quiet anniversary? Big milestone? Maybe you just need to celebrate that it's Tuesday with someone special?

Coup des Tartes is such a wonderful place when you have something special to celebrate. Cozy and romantic and with such delicious food, it just feels like an occasion when you walk through the door. Coup des Tartes has the intimate feel of a restored home with little rooms, a courtyard, and tables near the fireplace. Maybe it was the candlelight, but it seem like every table had something to toast.

We had to order a tart. We chose the Three Onion Tart and Rocquefort salad to start. I enjoy dessert tarts, but savory ones are always more interesting and creative to me. They are complex to pull off successfully. Let's just say the the restaurant is aptly named, it was beautifully done.

I also enjoyed the Chicken Coup with an argula cream sauce. I have never had an argula cream sauce, but I know that I will again. Sean had the Pork with a wonderful mustard sauce, which I enjoyed sopping up with their bread. It was a lovely evening and Coup des Tartes did make an ordinary Tuesday evening extraordinary.



If you go, do know that they do not have a wine list. For a small corking fee you can bring your own bottle. So even if you are just needing a night out, pick a favorite vintage and let Coup des Tartes help to make dinner out an event to remember.
