Are you frustrated with the boring options for business dinners? Are you hesitant to take a client out to eat? Well, a new restaurant in town may be just what you are looking for! Andre's has been open only three months but it's already positioned as the "in" place to go for a special treat. Named for its chef, Andre Dupont, the restaurant is decorated in the colors and images of the South Pacific. "I love the Orient and the tropics," comments Dupont, who is in charge of the menu as well as the decor and the artwork. In addition, he selects all the wines for the wine list. The menu features a French-Asian blend of innovative dishes. You can start with a cocktail and a wide range of appetizers, including seafood and
salads. I had the spinach salad with hot bacon dressing. For the entree, try one of the unique salmon dishes. Whether you prefer your fish sauteed, grilled, or steamed, all of the sauces can be created from mild to spicy, as you prefer.
For dessert, I suggest the Hawaiian strawberry pie, with fresh strawberries and bananas. "I like to experiment," says Dupont. "New food combinations are fun and exciting. It is my vision to combine traditional French seafood recipes with tropical fruits and the spices of Asia." And at Andre's, a stylish meal doesn't have to be expensive. The prices are very reasonable. Andre's is always crowded, so be sure to call ahead to book a table.
