  Read this and then read this again because Glou is the next wine bar you will be going to. Sunday afternoon some friends and I headed over to Glou to check out the new restaurant that just opened in Prospect Lefferts Gardens. Take note, PLG doesn't have a lot of restaurants so when a good one comes about we better do what it takes to make sure everyone knows. Like Glou for example. I walked in and was greeted by owner Jef Diesel, an absolute pleasure to dine with/at his restaurant. The interior is modern, sleek and inviting. Lots of tables, space and a lovely bar. Super large windows gives the restaurant a ton of natural light. We started with some fantastic wines and champagnes he poured for his. Also take note, he's a big wino so you can bet the wines he brings to his restaurant are top of the line stuff. From the menu you we ordered the following and I will point out the highlights. Tortilla Patatas with Spiced Tomato Jam Escargot with Parsley Butter, Grilled Bread Wild Mushrooms with Hummus, Toast Ceaser Wedge with Crispy Capers, Parmesan Spiced Eggplant with Burrata, Baby Kale, Almonds Meatballs Beef and Pork, Burrata, Marinara, Parmesan Pavlova for dessert. The dishes that stood out and that's pretty much making me have weird cravings every day was the Meatballs, Wild Mushrooms, Pavlova and Tortilla Patata. The other dishes were super fantastic too but these I really really crave. The escargot was probably one of the best snails I've had to date. So simple with parsley butter, it almost makes you wonder why some places try and complicate it to the point of it being inedible. Let me tell you about those meatballs. He cooks them in a dish with burrata and parmesan and the flavours combined are everything you think paradise is made of. I am really not a fan of meatballs but these were so damn good. Like why?! The Tortilla Patatas are also super different. I've never seen anything like it and the spiced tomato jam leads it to a perfect gastronomic height. When I saw dessert was going to be Pavlova, my heart skipped a beat. I can eat meringue at any time of the day be it breakfast lunch or dinner or midnight. And his pavlova was even more perfect than I anticipated. I am so so happy Glou has opened in PLG and very much recommend this to be your next date night. You will not be disappointed. Prices are super on point and parking is great.
