We also raved about two salads -- frisee with poached quail eggs and lardons, and mache with shavings of parmesan and slices of candied beets.
6 thick slices bacon, cut into lardons 2 1/2 cups marble potatoes*** 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 teaspoons herbes de Provence 1 teaspoon fleur de sel 1/3 cup cleaned and blanched fava beans 1 head frisee, torn into bite-size pieces 1 teaspoon Cabernet vinegar Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
