Cassoulet on the Brain

[between2tides]

Looking for a fantastic serving of this. Want to take a trip to Southern France without the plane ride. Could be authentic or another take, as long as it's Delicious.

Any idea's for where to go would be appreciated. Even if it's not on the regular menu...

Thanks

Took our eating group to La Bastide tonight for cassoulet because of this thread, and they did not disappoint.

Great meal, and in an area of SD I never go.

Thanks for the tip!

Just had the cassoulet at Iris in Del Mar a few nights ago - delish! Price was $20 or so...

Just got an email from the Euro Food Depot, see below, also the cassoulet at Le Bastide (sp) in SR looks good, although I have yet to try it.

Thank you so much for this recommendation of Euro Food Depot. I didn't even know about this place but went out there today. The owner is so nice!

Anyway the scoop on the cassoulet is, he will have it Monday. It comes in vacuum packed bags so, will last for a bit. $25-$28 for each bag which will is for 2, but when he told me what was in there... sounds like it could feed 3.

For now, duck rillettes in the fridge.. mmm.

I understand it is available but not on the menu at the new Flavor in Del Mar. There is a great one at Bistro Jeanty in Yountville.

Has anyone been to Flavor yet? I haven't seen or heard much about it since it opened. The online menu looks a bit humdrum.

We went about three weeks ago and it was spot on. Thought it might be a little rocky since it was only a couple weeks in but everything was wonderful. We went on a Sunday which is typically an off night for chefs but everything was beautifully done and the service was great. The room after dark is not as nice as it might be with the great view but we had a great time and enjoyed everything. we will definitely be back. Perhaps for the cassoulet.

2 1/2 years after the post? Not surprised it's not still on the menu.

Cassoulet is a winter, cold-weather dish. Although with this June Gloom thing, maybe it's appropriate.

The coldest winter I spent was a June in Pacific Beach.

[Yeah, I know...]

[jdcoach]

thanks I won't expect to find it then, I will say that I learned to eat a cassulet when I was in Carcasonne in Souther France during a summer trip. They had it everywhere during July. I hope to find it here as well

I had a great one at the Ivy/Andaz, but that was before Coulon left. Might call and ask if it's still on the menu.
