This French restaurant sets the stage for a memorable evening, starting with a stroll through the wine shop at the entrance. Choose to dine inside or, if the weather is mild, opt for the white-tableclothed patio located right on the Desert Shores lake. Flanked by greenery that attracts hummingbirds and dragonflies, choose comfort with — no surprise — French onion soup. This version is more formal than rustic, with the addition of flaky puff pastry, decadent foie gras, and buttery truffle in addition to caramelized onions and gruyere cheese.
