We had two friends to dinner here this evening and it was a great experience food excellent, service way above local standards if you would enjoy a quick trip to France without the air fare and over night travel this should be your destination

Rural Intelligence FoodWhen was the last time you saw céleri rémoulade or eggs a la Russe on a menu in these parts? When was the last time you went to a French bistro where the most expensive entrée was $20?  Le Laurentis, which opened in Lakeville three months ago, feels like it’s been around forever—or at least since the 1960s.  If you still relish the cuisine of Julia Child, you will be very happy here.  The by-the-book truite meunière ($16) is bathed in butter, the salmon is served with a decadent Hollandaise sauce ($18), and the hangar steak ($18) comes with a rich wine-and shallot sauce and a pile of crisp frites. “Our most popular dish is duck a l’orange,’ says owner George Courgnaud.  You’ll have sticker shock when you look at his wine list. Every bottle is just $25. Très bien! —Dan Shaw
