Trois Cent Onze

After putting all his creative energy into his food, French owner Christophe Gourdain presumably couldn’t muster up enough energy to think up an original name for his formidable culinary extravaganza: hence Trois Cent Onze (311), the place’s numerical address on Fortaleza St. With its well-established French connection, 311 has the words ‘elegant, ’ ‘refined’ and ‘sophisticated’ written all over it, conjuring up classy European cuisine without too many of those Latino-fusion makeovers (alas, no mofongo with a camembert twist here). Glide into one of the island’s most romantic interiors, awash with billowing white curtains, flickering candles and delightful Moorish-Andalusian tiles and order from a menu replete with scallops, duck and foie gras. Not surprisingly, there’s a wine list to rival anything in France.
