Sage French Café
2378 N. Federal Highway, Fort Lauderdale, 954/565-2299, Sagecafe.net
Sage consistently serves up savory country-French cuisine in a romantic, laid-back atmosphere, providing the perfect place to bring a date or your mom on Mother's Day. Start off with a traditional Gallic classic such as onion soup gratinée or Brie in puff pastry, or choose from among a variety of fresh salads, including the simple tomato and basil or a house salad of mixed greens. Mouth-watering dinner options make for some tough choices, but standbys never disappoint. Try coq au vin (chicken stewed in wine and served with vegetables), steak Maurice (grilled rib eye topped with asparagus, mushrooms and Brie and served with raspberry sauce) and crisp roast duck cooked in a honey-raspberry sauce. You'll naturally want to save room for dessert, which encompasses a variety of crepes, a crème brûlée made with fresh red berries and a French twist on an American favorite: homemade apple pie à la mode.
