This week join us at Little Red Bistro.

"You might have missed out on taking a summer vacation in France, but that doesn't mean you need to miss out on authentic French cuisine. But that almost didn't happen when the Little Red Bistro opened a little more than a year ago in the South Lake Union neighborhood. At first, it served espresso drinks and sandwiches adjacent to an artist studio with little thought over a dinner menu. "We had just enough food to make the liquor board happy," managing owner Jeff Hengst said. "We didn't have a feel for the menu." But that all changed when his chef, Michél May, walked in and started assembling a menu based on cuisine from his native France. Since then, he has been in the kitchen serving up delicious food to the bistro's patrons. The menu: The lunch menu includes six signature sandwiches and six panini sandwiches ($6.95 each). For weekend brunch, May makes omelets ($8) and sweet and savory crepes ($7-$10), one at a time, from scratch. The dinner menu is more expensive, with entrees starting at $13, but are worth the price. If you want a true deal, a $10 T-bone steak dinner is served Monday nights. What to write home about: Off the dinner menu, the Chicken Dijonnaise ($13) is a chicken breast pan-seared and served over wilted spinach with a Dijon-mustard sauce. The La Belle Scallops ($17) are grilled with lemon butter, topped with a hollandaise sauce and also served on baby spinach. Both come with your choice of seasoned red potatoes or basmati rice. The setting: Hengst also is an artist and you can find his artwork hanging on the walls in the bistro. The restaurant has a European-studio feel to it, with extra artwork stored above the bar. There is a stage with live entertainment most nights; check the website to see what's on tap." - Jon Fisch, SeattleTimes.com
