La Gazette du Petit Robert Bistro
Are you ready for Restaurant Week?
August 2009
Petit Concept
rainy day
Many restaurants nowadays refer to themselves as bistros, despite the fact that their food, ambiance and prices are at odds with the true definition of the term.  In France, a bistro is where blue collar workers go to eat homestyle fare at very modest prices; it is often served on bare wood or with draught beer and vin ordinaire.
Daily blackboard specials are prepared by Chef Jacky Robert, whose career and reputation are well-known to both Boston and west coast diners. Manager Loic Le Garrec is a native of Brittany and a veteran of Boston and New York's top dining rooms.
In true bistro tradition, entree prices are under $12 at lunch and under $20 at dinner (unchanged prices since opening April 1st, 2005)

Chicken Liver Paté
   This Liver Paté is usualy made from liver (pork or chicken) and pork fat. At PRB, we make it with clariffied butter instead. It gives the paté a smooth texture and incomparable taste. Served as part of our pate' trio, it comes with classic accompaniments for just $7 and feeds two.

Breast Cancer Fight
The SEXY ROBERT melon cocktail (pictured) has caused some controversy in our South End location.  Some say sexy - oui !  Others say sexist.  Here's our compromise:  for each SEXY ordered, we will donate $2 to the Art BeCAUSE Breast Cancer Foundation.

Juan
Juan is "Monsieur Paté"

It's just occurred to us that Juan Tajeda, who worked at the venerable Maison Robert, and who has been our in-house
Paté Master since 2005, looks a bit like Jacques Cousteau, no ?  In addition to Country Paté (picture), Rillettes,  and chicken liver paté, Juan also makes delicious vegetarian patés, plus sausages, quenelles and tasty meat stews.
Thank you Juan for you fidelity and consistency.
