Birthday Meal at Nobles Grill and Awards



We ate supper tonight at Nobles Grill Winston Salem, it is a famous high end restaurant in town, with a beautiful interior and great ambience and good service. Here's what we all ordered.

Tomato Basil Bisque this was very nice, but a tad too creamy for me
Duck, our friend seems to enjoy this and the presentation is very good.
My friends crab cakes, one thing I will say Nobles does very good crab cakes, my friend said they were pretty good and she is from Maryland!

I ordered Poulet Rouge, it was a little organic chicken, cooked on a wood fire, over mashed potatoes with some brussel sprouts.
Overall the chicken was very tasty, but after just returning from France the dish didn't taste French due to the creamed potatoes being too rich, and overpowering the star of the meal the Poulet Rouge



Coconut cake, this was pretty good, I had it with a cappuccino but again very little foam and a latte at most

Overall Nobles is a great place to eat, but pricey and I must confess after being in France we are spoiled by great food, this doesn't come close, and it leaves me feeling quite heavy. Where as in France I felt satisfied and light.

I was twittering with the restaurant and the owner responded to me!, his food blogs are wonderful and he really is someone to look up to in the culinary world.

  2. Too bad the meal was a little disappointing. The presentation is beautiful, though! I got to go with my mom to Paris a couple years ago, and boy, was the food terrific. I can see how just about anything would be a let-down after authentic French food.

  7. I lived in Winston-Salem for five years and never managed to make it to Nobles restaurant. They had a food booth at the first annual Salute Wine Festival. I tried their chicken wrap. Very tasty chicken, but very disappointing wrap for the price.

  27. Some beautiful presentations in these dishes. Somehow nothing seems to compare to France when you get home. At least it never did for me. There's something magic there....

    Happy Thanksgiving.
