Best Dishes at L'Alsace
Flammekueche - Bacon and Cheese
Small PlatesAlso called Tarte Flambée, this Alsatian specialty features paper-thin dough baked in a wood oven until edges char. Toppings are simple and traditional—smoked lardons, caramelized onions, melted cheese, and fresh crème fraîche. Light enough for lunch but deeply satisfying.
Flammekueche - Smoked Salmon
Small PlatesA lighter protein option, flammekueche topped with cold-smoked Scottish salmon instead of meat. The dill and salmon pair with the char and cream for a sophisticated play of hot and cold, smoky and fresh.
Choucroute Alsacienne
MainsThe kitchen braises cabbage with Alsatian white wine, duck fat, juniper, coriander, and cumin seeds. Served with white sausage, pork shoulder, smoked breast, and knack. Portions are generous—this is a hearty, warming dish meant for cold weather and hearty appetites.
Choucroute Royale
MainsAn elevated version combining the sauerkraut base with lobster, bass, Scottish salmon, haddock, and prawns. The contrast between rich smoked meats and delicate seafood makes this the restaurant's luxury choucroute option, heavier on price but offering maximum variety.
Shellfish Plateau - Mixed Selection
SeafoodThe restaurant's seafood counter sources live crustaceans daily. Plateau sizes vary, but a standard selection includes 4-6 varieties. Prices range based on what's available and market rates, but fresh is guaranteed. This is the spot to try locally-sourced Atlantic shellfish.
