Little Bird is the sister restaurant of the famed Le Pigeon. Chef Gabriel Rucker won the James Beard Award this year for Best Chef: Northwest. I won the lottery by getting to have a wonderful lunch with my friend annyong!
The space is so adorable and so very bistro-esque. Even though we were ordering up a storm, we couldn't resist the bread and salt-topped butter.
Housemade pineapple soda ($3.50).
Yes, it's clear, but it was totally pineapple-y! Crazy!
Foie gras torchon, rhubarb and muscat grappa gelee, hazelnut streusel ($17).
Heavenly! I loved this rich and creamy decadence, and I loved the fruity, tart, and nutty supporting cast.
Le Pigeon Burger and fries ($12).
annyong highly recommended this burger, and we had a fabulous time sharing it and the marvelous fries. Really juicy and substantial.
Baguette, jambon de paris, Gruyere, dijon, greens ($8).
Delightfully simple yet delicious. So glad annyong and I traded halves!
