High quality does not have to be pretentious

Unlike other south-east asian cuisines, Simply Pasteur’s Vietnamese food has influences from France. Given this influence, cooking is definitely a culmination of East meets West where meals are prepared and cooked for hours rather than flash fried.

With fresh herbs, meats and vegetables, Simply Pasteur goes one step further than other Vietnamese restaurants by crafting our plates to be for a modern-american palette. That is, our cuisine is not only designed to be elegant, but also to be flavorful and to take experience into account.

Wine List

We clear out our cellar of all odds and ends for the summer dinner. We began the evening with the Louis Bouilllot Rose Cremant, Champagne Camille Saves, and Domaine Dentelle all sparklers. The Canardiers love their bubbles. Then we placed various bottles on tables, and everyone tried and shared all bottles. You have to wear your sneakers this evening to ensure you find the right bottle you enjoy. We ended the evening with the Villa Creek Red dessert wine. I would be glad to go into greater depth if you wish. It was a Ranchos evening with the Canardiers introducing themselves to random diners who just happened to be friends of other Canardiers, not at the dinner. It was a great evening. – Gregory Miller
