Le Central's menu offers a delightful culinary journey, blending classic French flavors with a touch of modern flair. From the first bite to the last, each dish is a testament to the restaurant's commitment to authentic, yet creative French cuisine.
To kick things off, the Hors-d'oeuvres section presents small bites that are perfect for sharing. The Panier de Pain (basket of bread) is a simple yet satisfying start, while the Deviled Œufs (deviled eggs) are a creamy, tangy delight. For something with a little more bite, try the Croquettes Petit Tartine à Chèvre & L'Oignon, offering a delicious contrast of goat cheese and caramelized onions, or the Petit Tartine à Saumon Fumé, which pairs smoked salmon with crispy toast for a light and flavorful snack.
The Entrées are a true showcase of French starters. The Soupe à l'Oignon (French onion soup) is rich, comforting, and topped with a golden, bubbly cheese crust. For a refreshing twist, the Céleri Remoulade (celery root salad) offers a crisp and tangy flavor. If you're in the mood for something more indulgent, the Pâté de Campagne is a rustic, hearty treat, or the Gâteau de Crabe avec Beurre Blanc is a refined crab cake with a silky white butter sauce.
Salads at Le Central are fresh and vibrant, with the Petite Salade Maison (house salad) providing a light, flavorful option. The Salade Lyonnaise combines the rich taste of bacon and a perfectly poached egg, while the Salade d'Endives Chèvre Chaud et Betteraves pairs tangy goat cheese with earthy beets and crisp endives.
For the main course, Le Central offers a range of comforting French classics. The Cassoulet "Le Central" is a rich, slow-cooked dish with beans, sausage, and duck, ideal for hearty appetites. If you're craving something from the land, the Poulet Rôti (roast chicken) and Bœuf Bourguignon (beef stew) are both tender, flavorful, and filled with deep, savory notes. For those who prefer a more classic French dish, the Steak-Frites and Le Central Burger offer a deliciously satisfying option.
Seafood lovers will rejoice with the Saumon (salmon), the delicate Sole Meunière, and the Les Moules Frites, all perfectly cooked and accompanied by crispy fries. For a garden-inspired option, the Tarte au Chèvre et Poireaux (goat cheese and leek tart) is a light, vegetarian treat.
Sides like Frites, Frites aux Truffes (truffle fries), Haricots Verts (green beans), Champignons (mushrooms), and Ratatouille complement any dish with vibrant, satisfying flavors.
Overall, Le Central's menu is a celebration of French tradition, with each dish bringing something unique to the table, from rich meats and seafood to fresh, vibrant salads and sides. It’s a true gem for anyone seeking a taste of classic French cuisine in a cozy, welcoming setting.
