We got the chance to visit Le Garage last May. I found out about the place in a slightly unconventional way. I'd been perusing craigslist for food-related jobs in the Bay and saw that they were hiring hosts. I didn't get the job but it did become a place to try on my food bucket list - a list that seems to constantly grow despite my efforts to keep up with crossing items off the list.
The interior space of the bistro looked like a converted garage with its garage doors and their mechanic uniform-clad waiters (who even spoke French! oh my!). But it was done simply enough to not look kitschy or overdone. (Then again, kitsch isn't always a bad thing - as long as done in moderation.) There was also outside seating. It definitely seemed like a great place for brunch and had a great view from both the inside and outside :overlooking the Bay and the sailboat dock. We even did a little sailboat window shopping while waiting for our table to be ready: "I want that one and that one and that one!" Since reading about Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS shoes, and his living on a sailboat, I'm convinced that entrepreneurs and highly creative people live on sailboats. Oh how I wish.
