I'm back at Le Rêve in Wauwatosa. I've just polished off a "Pan Poulet" sandwich ($7.50, comes with a side of fries or salad) and am working on a cappucino ($2.50). If the Google searches by which readers find this site are any indication, this place is making quite a splash--and with good reason. The sandwich and salad were out of this world. The salad dressing must have been custom-blended, as it reminded me mostly of the yogurt-based dressings I know from Germany. If this place has any shortcomings, I have yet to discover them. It's worth every second of the drive through the 'hood from the UWM area. The woman who prepared the cappuccino here is an ex-employee of Alterra on Prospect.
(I overheard her talking to a couple ordering food who are regulars at Alterra.) I was kind of hemming and hawing about taking this leap, but here goes: five stars (*****). Hope they keep up the great work!
