Four-star review from the Nashua Telegraph


02.02.10 Posted in News by admin

The Nashua Telegraph’s Encore published a review of our Bistro on January 14, 2009, giving us an overall four-star review!!!

“Try the Apple Cider Braised Mussels… This dish was outstanding in every way. The mussels were small and, thus, sweet, without one bit of grit. They were swimming in a sweet and savory broth, with chunks of fresh apple; smoked, crispy bacon and fresh herbs.”

Talking about our Cider Brined Grilled Chicken the writer says:

“The nicely grilled chicken breast was tender and infused with the sweet apple flavor of the reduction. The potatoes were a nice, lighter switch from regular mashed – hearty without being laden with butter. The steamed broccoli, while fresh, could have used a little something to brighten the flavor.”

The Boston Globe published also an article on January 24th, 2009. Here are a few excerpts:

“the Rustic Leaf’s chicken breast was tender and savory with the tart and fruity reduction just the right addition.”

“the tomato and bean (soup)… tasted like a fond memory of summer with that hearty boost of nuttiness from the legumes.”
