Mistral, French-Mediterranean Cuisine in Boston, Massachusetts
Mistral – Boston, MA
Mistral is the first of Chef Jamie Mammano’s six amazing restaurants in the Boston Metro area. Like some of the others I’ve been to, large grandiose dining room beautifully decorated. The entire place hums with the efficiency of a fine Swiss time piece…each person moving in harmony as though the entire event was choreographed. Mistral is where art meets cuisine with its French Mediterranean fare. It tastes every bit as good as it looks and although I like discovering new places. This just got added to my go back to list.
First out…a small round loaf of bread served warm with softened butter and a Chick Pea and Garlic purée. I could easily eat the entire loaf but decided to be good and have just two pieces…It’s just a great bread…
Tonight’s appetizer. The Asparagus Bisque. Asparagus, Cream, Leeks, Chicken Stock, Parsley and Spinach all puréed smooth, served with a Yogurt and Lemon Panna Cotta. Beautifully plated with a garnish of Jumbo Lump Crab and Herb Salad. There is no picture that could do justice as to exactly how delicious this soup was…wow!
The main. A Half “Whole Roasted” Duck & Wild Mushroom Risotto, Dried Cherry Gastrique…yet another work of art! Rich in colour, flavour atop a Risotto in a savory sauce that just has you wanting more. Amazing, but then I fully expected that it would be…
And for dessert.The house made ice cream trio… Vanilla, Chocolate and Coffee along with my signature Cappuccino! My server Tom was awesome as was Jasmyn one of the managers for her attentive service. Add Mistral to your “must try” list in the Boston area. Simply marvelous, I’ll be back!
