We dined at Cafe Panache for the first time after the sudden tragic passing of beloved Chef owner Kevin Kohler. His sons and daughters decided to keep operating the restaurant in his memory. The original staff remained, and it was comforting to see familiar faces. Chef Gregory Stott, who previously worked with Chef Kevin, has taken over and the food has not skipped a beat. We started off with the iconic filet mignon ravioli, and it was just as good as we remembered it. We also enjoyed shrimp salad, a crispy black sea bass with crispy capers, short ribs braised in Guinness and molasses, and flourless chocolate cake with praline ice cream for dessert. Unfortunately they didn’t have our favorite coconut cake for dessert. It all went great with an excellent Amarone. We are just so grateful to be able to continue to dine at Cafe Panache, one of our favorite restaurants, and wish the family the best of luck.
