Café Boulud — Restaurant in Municipality of Olaya

From the world renowned 3 star Michelin chef Daniel Boulud (his elegant flagship French restaurant Daniel is a must if in New York). Cafe Boulud is in Riyadh’s Four Seasons Hotel with one of the entrance accessible from outside. Ambiance is warm and modern. Menu had a variety of non-run of the mill selection. Started off with a refreshing Zen Tonic which was a nice spin on Gin & Tonic. Great charcuterie selection (finally non-pork!). You have a choice of 3 (100g) or 6 (150g). We wanted to try 6 but were afraid we would get full so the chef was kind enough to make a selection of 6 in 100grams. Also great cheese and non-alcoholic wine selection (largest I’ve seen in KSA). Foie gras was good but brioche not airy or sweet enough. Shrimp appetizer concept in lettuce pouch was good but breading was “off.” Veal chop very good (and white!) but a bit dry. Duck was perfect with fresh non-typical veggie. The Vasherin dessert was absolutely AMAZING with an incredible lemon sauce. A must! Note: Cafe Boulud’s at other locations have their famous burger. This branch also does, but there were other choices we couldn’t pass up; maybe for lunch. Service was friendly but a bit slow maybe due to new/inexperienced staff. Definitely planning on going back and would also like to try just having charcuterie, cheese,...
