"From 12 noon to midnight, the place is packed with folks ordering Yves’ fantastic finger foods from the drop-down ceiling menu and chalkboard daily specials such as seared foie gras red pepper skewers."
"Let's put it that way: if you only had one day in Paris, I'd advise you to go to L'Avant-Comptoir. It's THAT good, and inexpensive, and iconically French. They have a fantastic selection of regional charcuterie and 'hors d'oeuvre' - dazzling patrons (lots of regulars, lots of chefs around too) with a French version of Spanish tapas. Foie gras skewers - you name it."
"My fancy pants attempt at L'Avant Comptoir before dessert was a Foie Gras Meringue with Citrus Jam. Creamy, fragrant and a sweet altogether in one bite. What can I say? Wow."
"Foie gras macaron could have been a cool concept gone wrong, but it turned out to be a great combination of 2 of my favourite things!"
"The fois gras brochette arrives: hot, seared tiny pieces of yummy fatty melt-in-your-mouth foie gras, roasted red pepper bites in between - a balsamic vinegar tangy glaze. Now this just feels dream-like."
