I was going to include this in my TR, but I was so impressed with the food, I beleive it deserves it's own topic.

Mon Ami Gabi, is part of a small chain (I understand like 9 or 10). I've never heard of them before, but I won't soon forget them. The restuarant is located inside/outside Paris Hotel/Casino.
Dinner for 3 $66 plus tip w/one cocktail each.
Ok, get passed the French thing. I hate when a Mexican waiter tries to act French and in a faux french resturaunt in the good ole US of A. He didn't see the humor, when I asked him what part of France he came from! I was rolling in the isles though! He did come around by the end of the meal, so we tipped well.
Now the food. Every employee I chatted with at Paris "the hotel" raved about the food. Seems while they where practicing for opening day, they offerd free samples to the employees. I have to admit they did not steer me wrong.
The Fritts as they call them are sort of like french fries/potato sticks/chips. Awsome! My beef, was excelent and not one complaint about the poulet (chicken) from Sandy or Sue. I urge you to try this place! Oh the bread is pretty darn good too, and they'll bring loaf after loaf....I know! <S>
They have outside seating, but it's on a request only basis (tip here folks) they where promissing 1 1/4 hr wait for outdoor cafe seating, or right away in the dinning area. I'm told the fountian show durinng dinner outside is a nice extra touch! This is one thing Paris did right!
I have much more inside stuff on Paris, to report on for my trip report. But this resturaunt info could not wait!

David, it was listed under steak on the menu, but it was a slice thing with a maranade. I'll take a stab at the title.
Boulainese?
In October, my time will be short, so I don't expect a return visit till November, by then the cafe outdoor seatting will be out of the question! Guess, I'll have to wait till April!

Lee: Thanks for the restaurant tip. I've been reading up on Paris and Mon Ami Gabi is part of the Lettuce Entertain You corporation, isn't it? If that's right, good things sure have been written about this one.

V,
I don't know where or what it is part of, to be honest. I just know the food was outstanding. High praise from me. I don't get this excited about many resturants.
