CHATEAU 13 – French
A small, deliberately unhurried dining room on 13th Street West in Bradenton, open Wednesday through Saturday with seatings from five. The kitchen looks to France, Spain, Italy and Belgium: seared foie gras with Calvados-flambeed apples, escargots a la Bourguignonne, beef Wellington vol-au-vent, braised octopus, salade Lyonnaise with a confit egg yolk. Mains run to mussels and hand-cut frites, lobster risotto, Iberico pork secreto, and the Louis XIII burger under truffled mushrooms and gruyere. A three-course prix fixe is the house signature. Cheese and charcuterie change daily. Walk-ins welcome, reservations suggested. Desserts close on Grand Marnier creme brulee or Basque cheesecake.
