"Max's on Broad is a French restaurant located in Richmond's Art District. After checking in with the hostess, we were seated. I liked how we had the option sitting at a larger table. We enjoyed the French accordion music playing from the speakers. The dimmed lighting made it an intimate and romantic dining experience. Our server Bryan came by to tell us that Thursday's is half priced wine and the special for the night was a Roasted Chicken. For drinks, we had the Pomegranate Cooler and The Sicilian. The Pomegranate Cooler consisted of vodka, Pama, lemon soda shaken, served over the rocks, and garnished with lemon. It was light, fruity, bubbly, and refreshing. The Sicilian consisted of Jim Bean rye, amaretto, sweet vermouth bitters, and orange zest. The French Onion Soup consisted of a salty beef stock topped melted aged gruyere crostini. It was too salty to my liking so I exchanged it for warm breadsticks served with garlic-herb EVOO. My boyfriend enjoyed his Grilled Duroc Pork Chops, which consisted of bone in pork chop served over potato puree topped with golden apple and raisin chutney and crispy brussels sprouts. I enjoyed the Maple Leaf Farms Duck Breast, which consisted of pan seared and sliced skin-on duck breast served over potato puree with haricot verts in a berry bourbon sauce. We finished our meal with Poached Pear Lemon Cake, which consisted lemon cake dusted with powdered sugar, topped with berry jam, served with poached fresh pear and whipped cream. The lemon cake resembled a cakey doughnut hole with a madeleine cookie exterior."
