January 10th, 2007 – Bon Apettit!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Jan.15, 2007, under Florida Restaurants, Friends
Visited ‘Le Bon Apettit’ french restaurant in Ocoee (West of Orlando) and indulged in French cuisine. This was part of our visits to non-American restaurants with Sandra, school buddy James Saunders, writer G.K. Sharman and myself.
The restaurant had changed hands and it was evident in the cooking. Though I’m no expert of French cooking, the others are and were generally disappointed. We left after the restaurant closed and as we conversed in the parking lot noticed that the cook was Indian. That might have been part of the problem.Since Mr. Saunders is an expert cook, especially French, maybe they should have James create the dinners.
The chicken lamp was decoration on our table.

Bad news, Rob…
The chicken lamp was your mystery entree’…small wonder the gang was disappointed. The good news is the bird should be finished by your return visit, thanks to the slow cooking properties of the lamp…
