Cecile’s sister Sherry and son Brian were our guests for dinner at Maison, a French Bistro located at King Street in Charleston, South Carolina. The ambiance was welcoming and unfussy yet elevated, providing a lovely setting to diner.
As far as the decor, Maison features elements that evoke a Parisian atmosphere, including artwork and design touches reminiscent of France.
For starters, we all shared a Caramelized Onion Tart; Mussels Mariniere with parsley gnocchetti pasta; and Citrus and Fennel Salad with pistachio. For our entree Cecile and I shared Monkfish Chopped Almandine, broccolini, with lemon butter sauce, and Sherry and Brian shared Spiced Duck Confit, lentils, and foie gras.
For dessert we shared Fresh warm Madeleines and Chocolate Mouse with raspberries.
