Bastille day comes once a year, but at Venteux we’re taking 3 days to make sure everybody in Chicago has a chance to celebrate. While we’re not throwing an entire festival at our restaurant, we still wanted to celebrate with some excellent food to celebrate the event that single-handedly abolished feudalism. Can you think of a better way to celebrate than having a feast with friends, or sharing stories from your day with a loved one in an intimate and atmospheric setting?
When can we celebrate?
From July 14th-16th, you can enjoy a dish concocted specially for the occasion. Schedule not flexible? Don’t worry, because we’ll accommodate brunch and dinner for our Bastille Day celebration. One important thing to consider is that while reservations are not required, they are strongly encouraged.
Be sure to make a reservation to secure a table, because when you hear about the special you’re not going to want to miss it!
What’s on the menu?
You’ll be delighted to know that our chefs are pulling no stops when they whip up their twist on a classic. Our Bouillabaisse is a mélange of seafood including lobster, clams, mussels, and white fish served with a tomato base, and scented with saffron. A unique mix of savory seafood finishing with the floral flavors of saffron make sour Bouillabaisse one of those dinners you’re going to remember for years to come.
And if you’re looking for something sweet after all that, don’t you worry! We will also be serving madeleines in our café!
