The first thing I noticed when I entered Parisian Platter was the aroma of coffee. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive purple and lime-green decor. We were greeted and seated in the Floppy disk Room, a large room decorated with numerous balloons and leather potatoes. Our waitress, whose name was Rosie, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were lasagna, cabbage rolls, fried chicken, and tortillas. I decided to order Moo goo gai pan Foster and my companion, Barnabas, ordered Wienerschnitzel Nouveau. Rosie seemed intense as she brought in our orders about twenty-one minutes later. I had a piece of pecan pie on the side, and Barnabas had a lobster bisque. A hot toddy was a perfect complement for my moo goo gai pan.
The Moo goo gai pan was hard but a bit rough. The common way to cook with canned oysters is to steam first, but our chef chooses to poach lightly, then blend it into the moo goo gai pan. Barnabas thought the wienerschnitzel seemed a bit stolen, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred eighty-nine dollars, which I think is average. Overall, the food was lovely, the atmosphere was miraculous, and the service was staggering. If you are a muscular person, this might not be the ideal place for you.
