Pastis Landais: rich brioche cake flavored with rum, orange and vanilla
Last Wednesday June 6th, for our June Quarterly Dinner at Café Presse we celebrated the cuisine of the region of the Béarn. If you didn’t have the chance to attend, here are a few photos of the dishes served. Note we in the kitchen got a little too busy to photograph every course. But you can check out the entire menu from an earlier post.
