Editorial Review for La Fougasse @ Sofitel Luxury Hotel – by Citysearch Editor

In Short
The curving dining room features funky lamps, mosaic tile, harlequin-checked banquettes, see-through fireplaces and bright Provencal-inspired colors. A sophisticated older crowd is well-dressed, well-mannered and well-off. The French menu, like the decor, doesn't take itself too seriously. Meals commence with two warm, pretzel-like loaves of "fougasse." Flavor-packed and simply satisfying entrees like pastry-wrapped roasted lamb sauced with black-olive tapenade, or seared potato-crusted tuna medallions, arrive artistically arranged on geometric-shaped platters.
