tommy says: the garlic bread and crab ceviche were both really tasty. the grilled cabbage was also inventive and the miso flan that came with it was silky smooth. scallops and the apple butter dessert were not really my cup of tea. the potato pulp was good, but felt like it should've been a side or something else should've been served with it. the beef with smoked peanut butter was reminiscent of beef satay with thai peanut sauce. the mignardises were a funky tasting. with the exception of the mignardises, nothing was truly bad, but troi mec left me a bit unsatisfied. there was no wow factor, and the fiasco of the reservation process (hitting refresh on my computer for over an hour only to keep getting an error message, and then dates that are available one second disappearing the next, and that is just the tip of the iceberg) would lead one to think they were in store for something amazing. all the positive press given to troi mec perhaps also led to very high expectations, and perhaps the disappointment is the result of the over hype.
