I&#8217;d been there once before with my friend Regina, and while my burger hadn&#8217;t been that good &#8211; Regina&#8217;s dish had been wonderful.  We&#8217;d won a $25 gift certificate at the Girls Inc.&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marga.org\/food\/blog\/2007\/10\/women_of_taste.html\">Women of Taste<\/a> event a few months ago, and I figured I&#8217;d use it and give La Note another try.  My experience, once again, was mixed.  Mike had a great dish, while I had a merely OK one.  Paz was too polite to complain about her chicken sandwich, but she didn&#8217;t seem to enjoy it too much.<br \/>\nOnce again, we started the meal with the <i>Crotin de Fromage de Chevre Cuits aux Noix<\/i>, &#8220;oven baked, nut crusted goat cheese served with french country toasts, roasted garlic &#038; proven\u00e7ales tomatoes.&#8221; As in my other visit, the combination was excellent and I think we all enjoyed it.<br \/>\nMike had a large pastry pocket filled with a variety of seafood including scallops, shrimp, salmon fillet and crabs.  He thought it was excellent.  I had chicken with prunes (I think), and while the outside of the chicken was tasty, the inside was pretty insipid and the breast was terribly dry &#8211; so much that I could not eat it.<br \/>\nFor dessert I had a flourless chocolate cake with berry coulis and vanilla ice cream.  It was very rich and very good &#8211; though I don&#8217;t particularly like the coulis (I have to remember to ask them to skip it next time). I&#8217;d order it again.<br \/>\nI hear that La Note has a very good brunch, but I haven&#8217;t tried it yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Friday, we took our friend Paz to dinner at La Note.
