Bisous for Cafe Bizou

DineLA is here! And with it comes the deliciousness of a bunch of restaurants with prix fixe meals. Our latest excursion took us to Cafe Bizou in Pasadena, one of the $26 options. Appetizer, entree and dessert, with the option to sub an entree or dessert for a glass of the house wine.

Appetizer: Lobster bisque. Incredibly rich and thick. Tasted just the right amount of seafood and just the right amount of cream. Good balance. Probably the best lobster bisque I've ever had.

Entree: Black tagliolini with lobster, scallops and prawns. Props for the huge chunks of seafood and clearly visible lobster claw meats! Maybe neutral points for the black pasta not tasting as "seafoody" as I expected from my previous experiences having black squid ink risottos. All in all still a highly recommended dish!

Of course I subbed out my dessert for a glass of the house wine, which wasn't too shabby.

All in all, good meal and highly recommended. Cafe Bizou never disappoints.
