The Del Ray Café is an innovative local eatery that blends the best of French country cuisine and American country products. The concept is simple: offering French style dishes prepared using the freshest ingredients available.
Check out the Menu below: Foie Gras, Lamb Shank, Soufflé au Grand Marnier...just a few of the dishes to choose from!
But the food is only part of the experience: the lovingly refurbished 1925 Del Ray house creates a “home away from home” restaurant reminiscent of an old Virginia farmhouse where you can “come casual” and relax.
And a little part of Alsace is being shared with us
Laurent Janowsky, co-owner of Del Ray Café along with his wife Margaret, has fond boyhood memories of growing up in the Alsace region of eastern France. He picked wild mushrooms and berries in the Vosges Mountains and cooked with his grandmother everyday. And his uncle, a French butcher, showed him the proper way to cut a side of beef. Though he left his native France when he was barely a teenager, Laurent’s love of French cuisine and his appreciation for farm-fresh dairy and vegetables has endured.
When the Janowskys bought Alexandria’s renowned French restaurant La Bergerie in 2000, Laurent began to put into practice the lessons he learned while working with master chef Jean-Louis Palladin.
Please see below the wonderful 3-course menu with many favorites for the Comité Tricolore’s friends.
