....................October 05, 2009


American restaurateurs shamelessly slap the term "bistro" on everything from awful chain outlets to places with $55 entrees. The French reserve the term for modest neighborhood spots like Petit Robert Bistro that unpretentiously serve delicious, relatively simple meals at workingman's prices. "Little Bob's" hits the bistro bull's-eye squarely with fine traditional Parisian fare, brusque but professional service, and nary an entrée over $20. C'est le luxe sans le luxe.

Jacky Feeds Kids

 
When your children eat the "kid's Menu" at PRB and Jacky's Table, the money goes to feed poor kids in the Philippines. For more information.  www.jackyfeedskids.org or on Facebook, or Youtube Video

 

 

Tartar is all over our menus. Tuna and Beef Tatar make a happy cohabitation. If you wish, you can order a surf and turf tartar with both on the same plate... Here, for you, is the recipe for our Tuna Tartar

Maryvonne Robert, Best of Moms

  Our mother was a widow when the three of us were still very young. As a home mom, without any work history, find a job was tough. She supported us by cleaning houses. We always had enough on the table and we all did well in life because of her dedication. Thanks Mom! - Jacky Robert

Mo 

 

Employee of the Month

Her eyes shining and hands moving as she describes her food, Moyoko Yoneda personifies all that is fresh and exciting at Jacky's Table in Brighton. At 26 years old, Yoneda is the new chef de cuisine of a French bistro that is casual, very reasonably priced, and young at heart. She is also one of several young women chefs starting their careers in Boston. "I'm excited for my bread cake," she says of her newest creation, a curry-inflected goat cheese and bread pudding filled with a mix of vegetables, named for her on the upcoming spring menu. Every Friday, Yoneda says, she creates a new fish special - a recent one was king fish with piri piri sauce - and every Saturday a new dessert offering. Yoneda was born in Tokyo and grew up moving back and forth between Japan and San Antonio, where her physician father did cancer research. So she loves the new steak tartar on the spring menu. "I'm from Texas so anything steak" is appealing, she says. Chef Jacky Robert taught her to hand-cut steak for classically French tartar so that the texture and taste is just right. And as spring settles in, Yoneda, who graduated from Boston University's School of Hospitality Administration and Le Cordon Bleu, is looking forward to the terrace opening along Commonwealth Avenue. "We're going to have an ice cream bar," she says, "just like in Paris."
