Georgette's entrepreneurial calling is inspired by memories of meals she enjoyed in France as a child. The menu at Rôtisserie Georgette's is centered around
spit-roasted chicken and rustic French side dishes. However, lamb, fish and duck as well as other perfectly prepared meats are available.
While dining, I enjoyed the roasted chicken, poulet roti, with the Provençal jus. Sides included the baby brussel sprouts with pancetta and a "stuffed, crisped and truffled" baked potato. It should go without saying: This is NOT Kenny Rogers' Roasters! Not only was the meal succulent, but the atmosphere made me feel like I was fine dining in the south of France. Yes, I like that sort of thing.

Prices are fair for the location and level of service. The cocktail and wine list is also remarkable and noteworthy. I had a 2010 Gamay - can't complain there! There's something about the Portuguese azulejo tiles that bring a warmth to this new restaurant, too, but it is the quality of the food that will bring you back.
According to the restaurant's website, lunch and brunch are coming soon. I'm looking forward to that - and will be sure to share along the way via Twitter and Facebook, so be sure to follow me and I'll follow you.
What would you have chosen on the menu? Chicken, lamb, fish or duck? Or would you go for a vegetarian meal? I'd like to hear about your experiences as well!
