August Chef’s Table-Un Soir de Fin d’Été
An End-of-Summer Evening
As summer slowly gives way to the first hints of autumn, we invite you to savor the season with our August Chef’s Table, Un Soir de Fin d’Été—An End-of-Summer Evening.
This month’s six-course tasting menu celebrates the abundance of late summer with sweet corn, fresh seafood, Mediterranean flavors, and the richness of premium beef tenderloin. Each course has been thoughtfully designed to showcase the finest seasonal ingredients while honoring the timeless traditions of French cuisine.
Whether you’re joining us for a special celebration or simply looking to enjoy an unforgettable evening, our Chef’s Table offers an intimate dining experience where every course is prepared to order and every detail reflects our passion for exceptional food.

Every Chef’s Table menu is inspired by the season, allowing me to create dishes that highlight the freshest ingredients available while staying true to the classic French cuisine that has been at the heart of Chez Nous for so many years. This month’s menu moves from the sweetness of fresh summer corn and delicate Pacific cod to a rustic French terrine, followed by a refreshing Green Apple Verjus Intermezzo. The evening culminates with a perfectly prepared bacon-wrapped beef tenderloin and concludes with a light, airy Blueberry-Limoncello Soufflé—a sweet celebration of the final days of summer.
Our Chef’s Table is available Wednesday through Saturday at any time. The experience is $125 per person, and because each menu is prepared with the utmost attention to detail, reservations are highly recommended.
Thank you for allowing us to share our passion for French cuisine with you each month. Creating these seasonal menus is one of my greatest joys, and I truly appreciate everyone who joins us to experience them. Whether you are celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to an evening of exceptional dining, I look forward to welcoming you to Chez Nous and sharing Un Soir de Fin d’Été with you.
À bientôt,
Chef Stacy Simonson
