🍷 La Voile – Boston’s "Fancy But Flawed" French Experience 🇫🇷

As someone who mostly cooks at home (thanks, sensitive stomach!), I ventured out for Restaurant Week—and left remembering why I prefer my own kitchen. Here’s the honest take on this "classic" French spot near Symphony Hall: 🍽️ Restaurant Week Menu Review: 🥖 Bread Basket: Warm, crusty, best part of the meal. 🦢 Foie Gras: Silky but slightly funky (saved by jam + bread). 🌽 Corn Soup: Sweet, smooth—no complaints. 🍷 Beef Bourguignon: • Tender? Fork-pullable… but chewy like gum. • Sides: Mushrooms + mash = delicious distraction. 🐟 Cod with Pomegranate Spinach Sauce: • Fish: Flaky. Sauce: Tart-sweet genius. • Quinoa: Why is this here? (Tasted like cardboard). 🍐 Desserts: ✅ Poached Pear: Warm + icy + nutty = perfect. ❌ Berry Mousse: Sugar overload. 💡 Reality Check: • 👗 Pretty Plates, Meh Flavors: Instagram > tastebuds. • 🇨🇳 Chinese Stomach Warning: You’ll crave homemade stir-fry after. #BostonEats #FrenchFood #RestaurantWeek #LaVoile #Overrated #FoodieFails #FancyButForgettable #StickToHomemade #BostonFoodScene
