A Piece of Europe Here in the Desert - Si Bon - So Good!

General Info

Si Bon welcomes you with soft buttery walls, bright red cafe chairs and white stone tables. Hand painted murals depict Brussels and complete this charming European Bistro. Open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Si Bon offers a wide variety of Belgian inspired dishes. Locals who frequent the Albertsons shopping center at Monterey Avenue and Country Club Drive had been watching the activity going on at the little corner restaurant - the former G'Banzo's - for several months. From a temporary sign that said Si Bon - It's Good - to a zigzag wall enclosing some of the sidewalk for a new patio, new red awnings, and finally bright red cafe chairs, the transformation became complete for this fresh, new Belgian bistro that opened mid-March of 2013. THE VIBE For owners Edith and Philippe Caupain, Si Bon has been fun to create. The soft buttery walls, bright red cafe chairs, white caesar stone tables, and a hand-painted wall mural whimsically depicting a street in Brussels convey a charming European bistro. Along the walls of windows, white countertops with high red chairs provide easy seating for those eating solo or on the run. If you opt for a countertop spot by the exhibition kitchen, chefs might offer you a taste or two of whatever they're cooking. The Caupains have been in the desert for 25 years, when Philippe came as executive chef for the former Maxim's in Palm Springs. For the past 18 years, he was the executive chef at Thunderbird Country Club. THE FARE Open-faced sandwiches, for example, come on either a waffle or toasted brioche, fresh-baked twice a day. A pan-fried chicken breast with saute'd shiitake mushrooms and Gruyere cheese; Juniper gravlax with cucumber and goat cheese cream; or Angus burger with grilled Maui onions and aged cheddar are a few of these. People are amazed by the nine hole escargot waffle," he said "An escargot is in each waffle hole, and the spongy waffle soaks up the garlic sauce." A signature dinner entree is the Mussels Marinire w
