Times Description

This last year we've definitely moved into French bistro and brasserie revival mode with the opening of Anisette in Santa Monica, Comme Ça in West Hollywood and Church & State downtown, among others. Yet Marché Moderne at South Coast Plaza remains for me the quintessential modern French bistro. Chef-owner Florent Marneau makes his own charcuterie: rabbit rillettes, duck terrine and head cheese. He bakes tartes flambées (a savory Alsatian tart) in a wood-burning oven, and on Thursdays he makes bouillabaisse. He does a beautiful steak tartare, moules frites and braised rabbit with mustard. Add in his wife Amelia's luscious desserts and it's a destination.
