My wife and I had the dining experience of a lifetime at the new Chez Roux Restaurant at the La Torretta Del Lago Resort and Spa on Lake Conroe We highly recommend this world class restaurant to anyone who is looking for an extraordinary dining experience that is sure to impress you and your guests. Our Chez Roux experience began with a glass of champagne on the deck while watching one of the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen. The fine dining began with lime and orange cured salmon imported from New Zealand that was truely exquisite. Schrambsberg Blanc de Blanc 2005 Napa Valley was the perfect choice to enhance the flavor. This was followed by a winter terrine of squab, parma hame, foie gras, shiitake mushrooms, and truffle vinaigrette that made the mouth water with each bite Next came a cssoulet of scallops and gulf shrimp that was expertly prepared and cooked to perfection. Silverado Vinyards Chardonnay 2006 Napa Valley accompanied these delightful entrees. A loin of venison, bitter chocolate, and raspberry sauce followed that was simply indescribably delicious, served with Chateau Montelena Savignon 2005 Napa Valley that was a perfect accompaniment. The blanco bianco, with cumin marinated baby carrots was the perfect compliment to the aforementioned delicaces. Dessert consisted of incomparable raspberry napoleon with chocolate sorbet with cafe petit fours. The evening was capped with Les Clos de Peulles Banyuls from Rousillon France. The trip to Lake Conroe's Chez Roux is an experience that is simply as unforgettable as beautiful Lake Conroe. We can't imagine a better restaurant anywhere in the United States.
