L'Escale Employee Directory

L'Escale is a restaurant seemingly lifted from glorious Provence and brought back to earth on the waterfront of Greenwich, CT. The creation of partners Jean Denoyer and Rick Wahlstedt , well known for their restaurants in New York and other major cities (Le Colonial, La Goulue, Orsay and others) , L'Escale serves an inventive Provenal menu in an at... mosphere that captures the warm sun, sea breezes and evocative scents of southern France. L'Escale, which means "the port of call" in French, uses its spectacular setting on Greenwich harbor as an integral part of its ambiance. The restaurant has a spacious lounge and an extensive outdoor terrace. It shares 600 feet of dock with the DELAMAR hotel, so guests can sail up to the restaurant for cocktails or dinner, stay overnight if they wish or sail away right after. The menu at L'Escale is authentically Provenal and the wines are the best vintages from France's prime growing regions. Just as the food and wine celebrates Provence, so does the design. An open stone fireplace imported from France warms the dining room, and authentic old terracotta floors are underfoot. The terrace is shaded by wrought iron awnings thatched with bamboo, filtering light and shadow. L'Escale captures the relaxed beauty of Mediterranean France. L'Escale is a two minute walk from the Metro North train station, allowing guests from New York an easy escape from the city to the calm luxe of waterfront dining. "Sitting on L'Escale's terrace, facing the water and enjoying the sunset, you will think you are in Antibes," says Denoyer. "A meal at L'Escale transports you there."
