Le Gigot: A French Dining Gem in the West Village, New York

The restaurant is nestled on a quiet street beside W4, a cozy hideaway amidst the bustling city. Inside, there are only eight or nine small tables. The solid wood interiors and warm yellow lighting create a super cozy atmosphere. 💡 🌿 I absolutely love the large mirror on one side of the wall—it feels like being transported to a Parisian café. The place isn't crowded, making it perfect for a leisurely meal with good company, where you can savor the food and enjoy a long, relaxed conversation. 🍽️💬 🤍Pate Maison: Is it pork pâté? It’s so flavorful and rich, similar to the concept of foie gras but with a grainy texture. The pickled onions that come with it are amazing, both refreshing and palate-cleansing. 🥩 🤍Escargots: These are the best snails I’ve ever had! The presentation is quite casual, not very fancy, but the snails are cooked to perfection. There’s no complicated seasoning; just simple garlic and celery with olive oil, which brings out the natural sweetness of the snails. 🐌 🤍Boeuf Bourguignon: This is a huge portion of beef burgundy stew. The sauce is so rich and flavorful, and the meat is tender and full of taste. The crispy bacon bits are a delightful surprise. The side dishes include small onions, potatoes, and carrots. The potatoes are especially fragrant. 🍖🥔 #NewYork 🗽️🌟
