Your dual entrée features peppercorn-crusted steak in cognac-spiked demi-glace alongside delicate sole meunière bathed in nutty brown butter. Gratin Dauphinois with melted Gruyère cheese accompanies haricots verts finished in white wine. The finale presents caramelized tarte Tatin with buttery puff pastry and silky crème anglaise.
