Central Michel Richard offers a delightful blend of French elegance and American comfort. The fried chicken is a must-try; it's expertly cooked through sous vide, resulting in tender, juicy bites. Pair it with the goat cheese Caesar salad for a refreshing start. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between trendy and cosy, making it ideal for both casual dining and special occasions.

Don’t skip dessert - my napoléon was simply heavenly! Reservations are wise, especially on busy days. I look forward to returning... 🍰
