The warmth envelops you instantly when you enter L'Ardoise, a small restaurant perched on the corner of Noe and Henry Streets. You may as well have been transported to a longstanding neighborhood bistro in Paris where the food is as warming as the atmosphere. It's where you order steak frites, duck confit and an excellent bottle of French wine to go with it. It's where you take someone you really like because you don't let just anyone find out about the magical secret that is L'Ardoise in a restaurant-obsessed city such as this.
