There are a ton of French restaurants in the city, all claiming to
transport diners to the city of light or the romantic European country
side through their dishes. But tucked downtown Winnetka, is an unassuming café that is nearly
identical to the corner spots that Steve and I would frequent in the
Marais neighborhood in Paris. Mirani's on Elm Street is like walking
into a pretty Parisian bistro, complete with the rattan chairs, antique
crystal chandeliers, and delicious red wine. On a warm Saturday night a
few weeks ago, my parents and I stopped in after dinner to check out the
space ... and the dessert menu. One of the friendly owners brought over almost
half a cake and a few generous pours of wine. I can't wait to get back to try out the amazing lunch and dinner menus (and pretend I'm back
in Paris).
